Beyond Reasonable Doubt and Probable Cause

Beyond Reasonable Doubt and Probable Cause

Beyond Reasonable Doubt and Probable Cause: Historical Perspectives on the Anglo-American Law of Evidence delves into the evolution of evidentiary doctrines within the Anglo-American legal system, focusing on their development from the early modern period to the twentieth century. This book examines the historical and intellectual underpinnings of key concepts like "beyond reasonable doubt" and "probable cause," exploring their roles in shaping the criminal justice process across various stages, from arrest to jury deliberation. By engaging with both doctrinal writings and broader philosophical and religious influences, the study highlights the interplay between evolving legal standards and cultural notions of truth and certainty. The work also traces the migration of evidentiary principles between institutions, such as the grand jury, trial jury, and pretrial hearings, and examines how these concepts were influenced by Romano-canon traditions. The book is structured thematically, addressing three major areas: the interaction between legal and philosophical ideas of evidence and proof; the transmission of evidentiary concepts across different procedural stages; and the impact of Romano-canon traditions on English law. Individual chapters tackle topics such as the trial jury's reliance on "beyond reasonable doubt," the grand jury's evidentiary standards, and the migration of "probable cause" across arrest, search, and pretrial procedures. The analysis also revisits philosophical contributions to evidentiary concepts and explores the incorporation of circumstantial evidence and presumption into Anglo-American legal thought. Ultimately, this study sheds light on how these legal doctrines have shaped and reflected the intellectual and institutional foundations of Anglo-American legal culture. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1991.

Monitoring Ecological Impacts provides the tools needed by professional ecologists, scientists, engineers, planners and managers to design assessment programs that can reliably monitor, detect and allow management of human impacts on the natural environment. The procedures described are well grounded in inferential logic, and the statistical models needed to analyse complex data are given. Step-by-step guidelines and flow diagrams provide the reader with clear and useable protocols, which can be applied in any region of the world and to a wide range of human impacts. In addition, real examples are used to show how the theory can be put into practice. Although the context of this book is flowing water environments, especially rivers and streams, the advice for designing assessment programs can be applied to any ecosystem.

Freedom: A Documentary History of Emancipation, 1861–1867 2 Volume Paperback Set: Volume 1, The Destruction of Slavery

The American Civil War destroyed slavery in the South. At first, most white Americans denied what would eventually seem self-evident. But black Americans saw clearly that the sectional conflict was their greatest opportunity for liberation. This volume of Freedom presents a documentary record of the transformation of the Civil War into a war against slavery, and the slaves' role in their own emancipation. The Destruction of Slavery shows the process by which a war for Union became a war for freedom. It demonstrates how three interrelated circumstances opened opportunities to slaves: first, the character of slave society; second, the course of the war itself; and third, the policies of the Union and Confederate governments. Together, they made emancipation an uneven, halting, and often tenuous process in which slaves played the central role.
