Resumo

3 In discussing the legislative implications of this work, the authors emphasized that "[t]his experiment shows the vital importance of state legislatures empowering police to make probable cause arrests in cases of domestic simple assault."Id.11 Each study compares the effects of three of these "treatments".12 Others have used mouse images to capture situations in which human beings were being treated as experimental animals, see e.g., ART SPIEGELMAN, MAUS (1986), or in which human beings have been placed in dehumanizing situations, see e.g., MON ONCLE D'AMERIQOUE (Film by Jean Renoir, 1984).Though a mouse would not fit in a test tube, the image is more evocative than that of a paramecium.13
