Words And The Door To The Land Of Change: Law, Language, And Family Violence, Martha Minow Nov 1990

Words And The Door To The Land Of Change: Law, Language, And Family Violence, Martha Minow

Vanderbilt Law Review

Can words stem violence? More specifically, can anything anyone says halt the physical devastation inflicted daily behind the closed doors of family dwellings? Some people strike, beat, or burn their children. Some people assault their lovers, some their spouses; usually, men batter women.' Can words, uttered by anyone else, stop this violence?

Words of journalists expose family violence to public view. Words of legislatures and judges forbid and punish family abuse. Words of historians, novelists, television scriptwriters, social workers, feminist theorists, and songwriters depict and decry domestic violence against a backdrop of societal silence about it. But are there words …

Private Lives, Public Selves, Jean B. Elshtain Nov 1990

Private Lives, Public Selves, Jean B. Elshtain

Vanderbilt Law Review

What of the making public of a letter, what of the vocation of correspondent? Letters are a private genre, belonging in general, Kundera would say, to the domain of intimate life. When they "go public" some boundary is crossed, some violation is committed. Kundera's position hints that the great Oliver Wendell Holmes was perhaps a bit of a monster, seeming in his private life to be very much the "same" man as he was in his public vocation, except for his romantic effulgency with Clare Castletown. Reading this occasionally twittery and school boyish prose in Professor G. Edward White's article, …


The Role Of Law In Progressive Politics, Cornel West Nov 1990

The Role Of Law In Progressive Politics, Cornel West

Vanderbilt Law Review

What is the role and function of the law in contemporary progressive politics? Do legal institutions represent crucial terrain on which significant social change can take place? If so, how? In what ways? How can progressive lawyers remain relatively true to their moral convictions and political goals?

In this Article I shall attempt to respond to these urgent questions.I will try to carve out a vital democratic space left between the Scylla of upbeat liberalism that harbors excessive hopes for the law and the Charybdis of downbeat leftism that promotes exorbitant doubts about the law. My argument rests upon three …


Social Violence And Political Representation, Michael Ryan Nov 1990

Social Violence And Political Representation, Michael Ryan

Vanderbilt Law Review

If I were to sum up the revolution that has occurred in the humanities (and increasingly in the social sciences) in the past two decades, it would be to say that what was before seen as substance is now seen as representation. One could expand on that statement in several ways:what was before seen as nature or reason is now seen as convention or artifact; what was before a logic of necessity is now a highly contingent,even random relation of terms whose connections obey no necessary order; what was before a ground or foundation from which reasonable derivatives could be …


When Self Abuse Becomes Child Abuse: The Need For Coercive Prenatal Government Action In Response To The Cocaine Baby Problem, Kevin Drendel Nov 1990

When Self Abuse Becomes Child Abuse: The Need For Coercive Prenatal Government Action In Response To The Cocaine Baby Problem, Kevin Drendel

Northern Illinois University Law Review

This Commentary identifies prenatal drug exposure of infants as a problem with which our society must come to terms. The judicial system is capable of providing solutions, but a void of appropriate legislation hampers that ability. Among the legal vehicles available are criminal laws, child abuse and neglect laws, civil and criminal injunctions, and involuntary commitment laws. A balancing of the maternal, societal, and fetal interests involved can be accomplished on a case by case basis in the absence of enabling and guiding legislation. However, legislation in this highly sensitive area is a better way. This commentary explores the problem, …

Holmes As Correspondent, G. Edward White Nov 1990

Holmes As Correspondent, G. Edward White

Vanderbilt Law Review

This Article explores the function of letter writing in the life of Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes. I argue that letter writing was a by-product of an effort by Holmes to compartmentalize his life into professional ("my work") and domestic ("my wife") spheres, a compartmentalization that had its constraining effects. Because of this compartmentalization, a series of pursuits to which Holmes was attracted, ranging from speculation in the realms of literature and philosophy to flirtations with attractive women, were relegated implicitly to secondary stature, causing strain. In this context, letter writing functioned as a release for Holmes: a release from the …


Law As Text: A Response To Professor Michael Ryan, Robert N. Covington Nov 1990

Law As Text: A Response To Professor Michael Ryan, Robert N. Covington

Vanderbilt Law Review

Law, Professor Michael Ryan reminds us by his emphasis on law as legitimating representation, is also text. This is the most telling of the many points he sets out in his provocative and thoughtful article; for those of us called to the bar, it is an important reminder. For us lawyers, after all, law is not so much text as it is process, not so much noun as verb. It is not that we disregard the fact that law is in part a pen-and-ink affair. Our shelves sag with books; in academic life, few divisions of a university spend so …


Afterword: Voices And Violence--A Dialogue, Ellen W. Clayton, Jay Clayton Nov 1990

Afterword: Voices And Violence--A Dialogue, Ellen W. Clayton, Jay Clayton

Vanderbilt Law Review

WE: When organizing this Symposium on the topic of "Law, Literature,and Social Change," we asked whether current trends in literature and in literary, social, and legal theory actually could play a role in bringing about social change. The authors gathered at this Symposium responded to this question in very different ways. As we read their articles and comments, however, and as we talked about their various approaches, some common themes began to emerge. Narrative seemed important. The way people split public life off from private experience came up frequently. But violence seemed to be on everyone's mind.

IT: Why violence? …
