The Role Of The Black Catholic Theologian And Scholar In Today’S Context, M. Shawn Copeland Dec 2010

The Role Of The Black Catholic Theologian And Scholar In Today’S Context, M. Shawn Copeland

Journal of the Black Catholic Theological Symposium

Based on her keynote address delivered during the 2009 Annual Meeting at Atlanta University’s Lyke Center, Copeland takes a look back at the nearly forty-year history of black theological scholarship, reminding us of the intimate link between culture, history, and the ongoing and critical need for a theology that is authentic and responsive to the needs of the poor and marginalized. She reminds us of the urgency for the pursuit of truth and freedom, especially for black scholars and theologians. However, the quest for authenticity comes with a price.

First Amendment Based Copyright Misuse, David S. Olson Nov 2010

First Amendment Based Copyright Misuse, David S. Olson

William & Mary Law Review

We are at a crossroads with respect to the underdeveloped equitable defense of copyright misuse. The defense may go the way of its sibling, antitrust-based patent misuse, which seems to be in a state of inevitable decline. Or—if judges accept the proposal of this Article—courts could reinvigorate the copyright misuse defense to better protect First Amendment speech that is guaranteed by statute, but that is often chilled by copyright holders misusing their copyrights to control others’ speech. The Copyright Act serves First Amendment interests by encouraging authors to create works. But copyright law can also discourage the creation of new …


Salvage Awards On The Somali Coast: Who Pays For Public And Private Rescue Efforts In Piracy Crises?, Geoffrey Christopher Rapp Nov 2010

Salvage Awards On The Somali Coast: Who Pays For Public And Private Rescue Efforts In Piracy Crises?, Geoffrey Christopher Rapp

American University Law Review

This paper, a contribution to the "Troubled Waters: Combating Modern Piracy with the Rule of Law" symposium, explores the question of who pays for rescue efforts associated with maritime piracy. The paper explores the availability of admiralty law's salvage awards to governmental and non-governmental actors who intervene to rescue vessels and crew from pirates. Such awards provide an unusual incentive to rescue, traditionally unavailable for land-based rescue, but may raise complicated questions of policy and international law. The paper concludes by comparing salvage awards to a recent trend in American states to adopt "Search and Rescue" expense statutes allowing governments …

An Integrative Alternative For America's Privacy Torts, Robert M. Connallon Oct 2010

An Integrative Alternative For America's Privacy Torts, Robert M. Connallon

Golden Gate University Law Review

Rugg and Smith encapsulate a transition between two approaches to tort protection of privacy. Rugg reflects the unitary-tort theory, which recognizes a single tort and seeks only to determine if the plaintiff's interest in privacy has been breached by the defendant's behavior. Smith reflects the multiple-tort approach that recognizes four torts, encompassing four ways in which privacy is breached, that have in common only an interference with a loosely defined understanding of privacy. This understanding of the privacy tort was lifted from the Restatement (Second) of Torts (1977), which adopted a construct first proffered by Dean William Prosser in a …

"Why Rebottle The Genie?": Capitalizing On Closure In Death Penalty Proceedings, Jody L. Madeira Oct 2010

"Why Rebottle The Genie?": Capitalizing On Closure In Death Penalty Proceedings, Jody L. Madeira

Indiana Law Journal

Closure, though a term with great rhetorical force in the capital punishment context, has to date evaded systematic analysis, instead becoming embroiled in ideological controversy. For victims who have rubbed the rights lamp for years, inclusion in capital proceedings and accompanying closure opportunities are perceived as a force with the potential to grant wishes of peace and finality. Scholars, however, argue for rebottling the closure genie lest closure itself prove false or its pursuit violate a defendant's constitutional rights. In order to effectively appraise the relationship of closure to criminal jurisprudence, however, and thus to decide whether and to what …

Nonrecourse Financing And Tax Shelter Abuse: The Crane Doctrine Before And After The At Risk Provisions, Michael Gurwitz

Golden Gate University Law Review

This Comment will examine the history of nonrecourse financing and tax shelters from the fabled Crane holding to the new reality of the ARP. This will be done by dividing the Comment into four parts. Part I will discuss the period preceding the passage of the Tax Reform Act of 1976, focusing on the Crane doctrine and subsequent attempts by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to define and limit the use of nonrecourse debt. Part II will highlight the factors that contributed to the growing abuse of tax shelters. Part III, in general terms, will examine the statutory scheme of …

Northern Ireland's Criminal Trials Without Jury: The Diplock Experiment, Carol Daugherty Rasnic Aug 2010

Northern Ireland's Criminal Trials Without Jury: The Diplock Experiment, Carol Daugherty Rasnic

Annual Survey of International & Comparative Law

Northern Ireland's principle of non-jury felony trials is an anomaly in Anglo-American jurisprudence. Indeed, it is unique among common law systems. One British legal scholar has referred to the jury trial as the "paradigm of all [criminal] trials." The exceptional situation in Northern Ireland has resulted from the ongoing "troubles" which, since the late 1960s, have been a prominent feature of life in this small segment of the United Kingdom. Eliminating the jury in trials dealing with terrorist charges was determined to be necessary in dealing with the mounting sectarian violence. Part I of this article summarizes the issue dividing …


The Impact Of African American Skin Tone Bias In The Workplace: Implications For Critical Human Resource Development, Cynthia Sims Aug 2010

The Impact Of African American Skin Tone Bias In The Workplace: Implications For Critical Human Resource Development, Cynthia Sims

Online Journal for Workforce Education and Development

The impact of skin tone bias among African Americans in the workplace was examined utilizing grounded theory. The data revealed the harmful personal and workplace effects of the phenomenon. Findings suggest that there is a silencing of issues of race, power, and privilege in organizations. The author recommends utilizing a critical human resource development perspective in order to explore and address systems of privilege that silence employees and perpetuate inequities in the workplace.
