Faculty Publications

The Convention compels its signatories to prevent and punish certain enumerated acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, religious, or racial group. Even though the Khmer Rouge era is widely considered a paradigmatic case of genocide, this article takes as its premise that much of the violence in Cambodia during the Khmer Rouge era (1975-78), in which almost a fifth of …

Classifications, like race, that historically have been used to saddle certain people with disabilities on the basis of a characteristic that otherwise would be irrelevant to an individual's ability to contribute to society are inherently suspect as more likely to have been the product of irrational prejudice and, thus, are deserving of heightened equal protection scrutiny.

Improving Access To Food In Low-Income Communities: An Investigation Of Three Bay Area Neighborhoods, Edward Steinman, Kenneth Hecht
Improving Access To Food In Low-Income Communities: An Investigation Of Three Bay Area Neighborhoods, Edward Steinman, Kenneth Hecht
Faculty Publications

Rather, this report treats poverty, hunger and …
