Permanently Failing Organizations? Small Business Recovery After September 11, 2001, Leigh Graham Nov 2007

Permanently Failing Organizations? Small Business Recovery After September 11, 2001, Leigh Graham

Publications and Research

Small businesses in Lower Manhattan after September 11, 2001, paint a telling portrait of vulnerability after disasters. This qualitative analysis of recovery for small retail and service firms with 50 or fewer employees is based on ethnographic fieldwork, interviews, and documentary research from September 2001 through 2005. A postdisaster emphasis on place-based assistance to firms conflicted with macro-level redevelopment plans for Lower Manhattan. Small business recovery was impeded as aid programs responded to a new sense of urgency, attachment to place, and prestorm conceptions of the neighborhood at the expense of addressing community-wide economic changes accelerated by the disaster. Ingredients …

Trauma And Transmission: Echoes Of The Missing Past In Dora Bruder, Judith Greenberg Jun 2007

Trauma And Transmission: Echoes Of The Missing Past In Dora Bruder, Judith Greenberg

Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature

This essay begins with the ethical imperative that Dora Bruder puts forward: to pay attention to the stories of the pain of others that had been ignored during the Holocaust. But Dora Bruder is also full of "missing pieces"—missing details in Dora's life story, missing elements in the narrator's relationship with his father, and the missing understanding that necessarily occurs in relation to "knowing" trauma and particularly, the Holocaust. The essay looks at those "missing pieces" both through insights in trauma theory and through the lens of 9/11, which introduced a new sense of the "missing" to this writer. It …


Dying Like Men, Falling Like Princes: Reflections On The War On Terror, Edward Rial Armstrong Apr 2007

Dying Like Men, Falling Like Princes: Reflections On The War On Terror, Edward Rial Armstrong

University of Arkansas at Little Rock Law Review

The attacks of September 11, 2001 brought home the point that even a mighty nation like ours is vulnerable to injury, and that even a goliath can sometimes be dealt a serious blow by a much smaller opponent. Faced with a world in which individuals can wield incredible destructive power and in which economic weakness can cause an empire to collapse despite its military might, what types of policies and laws should we adopt to confront these realities? In particular, what types of laws and policies should we adopt to deal with the threat of terrorism? This article proceeds on …

Tracking Terrorist Financing Through Swift: When U.S. Subpoenas And Foreign Privacy Law Collide, Patrick M. Connorton Jan 2007

Tracking Terrorist Financing Through Swift: When U.S. Subpoenas And Foreign Privacy Law Collide, Patrick M. Connorton

Fordham Law Review

This Note examines the jurisprudence surrounding production orders that require the ordered party to violate foreign law, using the Terrorist Finance Tracking Program--better known as the SWIFT Program--as a case study. This Note recommends that courts excuse or punish noncompliance with such production orders based solely on the good or bad faith acts of the ordered party. Although this approach will clarify the law in this area, in certain circumstances it may make it more difficult for the United States to obtain information abroad. Consequently, this Note urges the United States to pursue formal and informal information-sharing agreements with its …


The Trial Of Zacarias Moussaoui, Douglas O. Linder Jan 2007

The Trial Of Zacarias Moussaoui, Douglas O. Linder

Faculty Works

On the horrific morning of September 11, 2001, when planes crashed into buildings and fell from the sky, Zacarias Moussaoui was sitting in a jail in Minnesota facing immigration charges. Even if he had not been arrested three weeks earlier, when he raised suspicion by paying large sums to a flight training school to learn to pilot a Boeing 747 despite his never having piloted a small plane, it seems unlikely that Moussaoui would have been the twentieth hijacker on one of the four doomed planes. Nonetheless, largely because of the convenient fact that he was alive and in custody, …

Toxic Torts At Ground Zero, Jean M. Eggen Dec 2006

Toxic Torts At Ground Zero, Jean M. Eggen

Jean M. Eggen

Of all the injuries from the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, legal analysts have accorded the least attention to the health effects of exposure to toxic substances by workers, residents, and other community members in the vicinity of Ground Zero. Although the health issue was raised with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in the immediate post-September 11 period, EPA showed surprisingly little concern for the potential health threats. In the years that followed, health studies have confirmed, however, that the fears of widespread contamination of the environment in and around Ground Zero were in fact warranted. In the aftermath …
