International Law, Industrial Location, And Pollution, Duane Chapman, Jean Agras, Vivek Suri
International Law, Industrial Location, And Pollution, Duane Chapman, Jean Agras, Vivek Suri
Indiana Journal of Global Legal Studies
The dominant position of economists on trade and environment is that
increasing trade raises living standards, which provide the economic
basis for reduced pollution. Professors Chapman, Agras, and Suri
present a perspective that raises very different points. First, the dramatic
growth of manufacturing in East Asia for global markets is
based entirely (or nearly so) on the importation of processed
pollution-intensive raw materials. For a typical product in this global
system, a U.S. consumer purchasing an Asian product made from
imported resources benefits from a lower price and a cleaner local
environment; however, energy use and pollution associated with the …
Strange Economics Of Land Use Law: From Euclid To Euclid, Ronald S. Cope
Strange Economics Of Land Use Law: From Euclid To Euclid, Ronald S. Cope
Northern Illinois University Law Review
This article reviews some of the major cases of twentieth century land use law. The author points out that even if an economic analysis is applied to Dolan v. City of Tigard, Dolan was in a better economic position with the required exactions and therefore there was really no taking. In addition, the author contends that the responsibility for the burden of increased public improvement should rest with those who are in fact creating the need.
Procrustean Jurisprudence: An Austrian School Economic Critique Of The Separation And Regulation Of Liberties In The Twentieth Century United States, Joseph Becker
Northern Illinois University Law Review
Holmes' dissent in Lochner disparaging economics as a touchstone for liberty started this nation down the procrustean path of jurisprudiential disaster. Soon thereafter, the United States Supreme Court began separating so-called economic liberties from those later "identified" as fundamental. Ludwig Von Mises, Austrian School economist, foresaw that "as soon as the economic freedom which the market economy grants to its members is removed, all political liberties and bills of rights become humbug." This article, relying upon principles of Mises, Rothbard, and other Austrian School economists, argues that separation of economic and fundamental liberties is scientifically impossible and concludes that the …

Puerto Rican Politics In The United States: A Preliminary Assessment, José E. Cruz
Puerto Rican Politics In The United States: A Preliminary Assessment, José E. Cruz
New England Journal of Public Policy
This article examines the following question: What characterizes Puerto Rican political development and what promise does electoral politics hold for Puerto Ricans in the United States? Its central premise is that an analytical framework which focuses on economic deprivation and racial prejudice is partial and inadequate to an understanding of the political experience of Puerto Ricans. Throughout the years, mainland Puerto Ricans have moved in and out of the political stage holding the banners of anti-colonialism, separatism, incorporation, and ethnic identity in search of vantage points from which they can satisfy their cultural, social, and economic needs. Despite the Airbus …

Women In Law, Barb Kube '94
The Park Place Economist
As mentioned earlier, the Bergmann model predicts that female and male lawyers will be segregated into different areas of practice. If this is the case, what are the forces behind this sector-specific segregation? On the supply side, Becker relies on the Neoclassical theories of utility maximization and human capital theory. These theories suggest that an increase in the store of human capital through training and education will be undertaken by the employee or provided by the employer if the benefits exceed the cost.

Cumulative Voting And Single Member Districts In Industrial Organization, Joshua Yount '95
Cumulative Voting And Single Member Districts In Industrial Organization, Joshua Yount '95
The Park Place Economist
Lani Guinier's proposals were neither radical nor undemocratic. In fact, cumulative voting is more efficient, democratic, and fair than the plurality rule single member district arrangement currently in use in most of the United States that Guinier's critics held up as the paragon of democracy. The importance of these qualities, especially to minorities in a pluralistic democracy, cannot be overstated. Efficient, democratic, and fair electoral systems prevent government from ignoring minority rights and interests by turning mere enfranchisement into empowerment, which in tum, affords minorities the same access to and proportionate power in America's social, economic, and political institutions.

Grameen Bank : A Revolutionary Concept, Faizal Chaudhury '96
The Park Place Economist
Grameen Bank's success has resulted in Prof Yunus receiving numerous international awards, including the World Food Prize last year. Bill Clinton has suggested that Yunus be given the Nobel Prize also. But the real prize that Prof Yunus desires is the eradication of poverty everywhere. Only the future will tell us if he succeeds.

Competitive Balance In Major - League Baseball, Matthew T. Jontry '95
Competitive Balance In Major - League Baseball, Matthew T. Jontry '95
The Park Place Economist
Major League Baseball is in trouble. The recent players' strike is just one in a series of player/owner problems that have beset this sport over the past century. Since the U.S. Supreme Court granted baseball owners exemption from the Sherman and Clayton Antitrust Acts in 1922, a constant and ongoing battle has been waged between owners and players on what is best for the competitive balance of the game, for the financial stability of the clubs, and for the welfare of the players.
