    A criterion, for the non-integrability of Hamiltonians with two degrees of freedom and a homogeneous potential of integer degree is derived. It is based on Ziglin's theorem [see \textit{S. L. Ziglin}, Funct. Anal. Appl. 16, 181-189 (1983; Zbl 0524.58015) and ibid. 17, 6-17 (1983; Zbl 0518.58016)] which is presented with proof in a self-contained way. Several well-known examples (anisotropic Kepler problem, 1-D Newtonian three-body problem) are presented explicitly.
