Problem
a) In Hoagland, the defendant wanted to assert a necessity defense to the crime of driving while under the influence. The Nevada Legislature had never addressed or mentioned a necessity defense. Do you agree with the Court's ruling in this case? Why, or not?
b) Using at least two of your learning resources this week, including at least one chapter from the Encyclopedia of American Social Movements found in your learning resources, as well as reviewing your own sources (such as news articles, websites on social movement organizations) conduct a bit of research on one of the social movements you have read about this week. What changes in American values sparked the beginning of the social movement? In other words, why did it begin at the time it began, rather than some other time in history? What made society ripe for the social change that was being instigated by this movement? Include at least one social movement theory in your discussion.
