The Millennium Problem And The Marketplace Of Ideas: Insights Into Freedom, Responsibility, And Technological Development, Scott Devito, Dennis R. Cooley Jun 1998

The Millennium Problem And The Marketplace Of Ideas: Insights Into Freedom, Responsibility, And Technological Development, Scott Devito, Dennis R. Cooley

Scott DeVito

A close analysis of the Y2K problem provides valuable insight into the ethics of technology. We contend that the primary cause of the Y2K problem is a lack of, what John Stuart Mill calls, originality (and the related loss of freedom, diversity, and understanding) in the information technology (IT) industry. If the various IT companies had supported originality, then they would have empowered their employees to respond to the foreseen difficulties associated with the change of millennium long before these difficulties blossomed into the current worldwide problem. We contend that originality, which requires and nourishes both intellectual vigor and diversity, …

Il Diritto quasi non tocca le cose. Le concepisce mentalmente, le dice, però, anche se con i guanti deve toccare il corpo del delitto.

"Public Use" And The Independent Judiciary: Condemnation In An Interest-Group Perspective, Donald J. Kochan Dec 1997

"Public Use" And The Independent Judiciary: Condemnation In An Interest-Group Perspective, Donald J. Kochan

Donald J. Kochan

This Article reexamines the doctrine of public use under the Takings Clause and its ability to impede takings for private use through an application of public choice theory. It argues that the judicial validation of interest-group capture of the condemnation power through a relaxed public use standard in Takings Clause review can be explained by interest group politics and public choice theory and by institutional tendencies inherent in the independent judiciary. Legislators can sell the eminent domain power to special interests for almost any use, promising durability in the deal given the low probability that the judiciary will invalidate it …
