Is Neurolaw Conceptually Confused?
In Minds, Brains, and Law, Michael Pardo and Dennis Patterson argue that current attempts to use neuroscience to inform the theory and practice of law founder because they are built on confused conceptual foundations. Proponents of neurolaw attribute to the brain or to its parts psychological properties that belong only to people; this mistake vitiates many of the claims they make. Once neurola...
متن کاملThe Law and Neuroscience
Some of the implications for law of recent discoveries in neuroscience are considered in a new program established by the MacArthur Foundation. A group of neuroscientists, lawyers, philosophers, and jurists are examining issues in criminal law and, in particular, problems in responsibility and prediction and problems in legal decision making.
متن کاملInterpreting BOLD: towards a dialogue between cognitive and cellular neuroscience.
Cognitive neuroscience depends on the use of blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to probe brain function. Although commonly used as a surrogate measure of neuronal activity, BOLD signals actually reflect changes in brain blood oxygenation. Understanding the mechanisms linking neuronal activity to vascular perfusion is, therefore, critical in int...
متن کاملCognitive neuroscience and the law.
Advances in cognitive neuroscience now allow us to use physiological techniques to measure and assess mental states under a growing set of circumstances. The implication of this growing ability has not been lost on the western legal community. If biologists can accurately measure mental state, then legal conflicts that turn on the true mental states of individuals might well be resolvable with ...
متن کاملNeuroscience, neuroimaging and the law.
Violence is a phenomenon we are daily confronted with in the media and everyday life. Yearly more than one and a half million of humans are reported to lose their lives due to violence. Violence has links to aggression, an almost universal phenomenon in animal kingdom that may in some instances serve the purpose of survival of species (e.g., the maternal aggression for defending offspring). Vio...
