Teaching Jewish Law In American Law Schools: An Emerging Development In Law And Religion, Samuel J. Levine Jan 1999

Teaching Jewish Law In American Law Schools: An Emerging Development In Law And Religion, Samuel J. Levine

Scholarly Works

In recent years, religion has gained an increasing prominence in both the legal profession and the academy. Through the emergence of the "religious lawyering movement," lawyers and legal scholars have demonstrated the potential relevance of religion to many aspects of lawyering. Likewise, legal scholars have incorporated religious thought into their work through books, law journals and classroom teaching relating to various areas of law and religion. In this Essay, Levine discusses one particular aspect of these efforts, namely, the place of Jewish law in the American law school curriculum. Specifically, he outlines briefly three possible models for a course in …

With Law In Their Minds: Some Reflections On The Nature Of Public International Law At The Light Of Current Political Science Theory, Carlos Fernando Diaz

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

The conclusion I came to during my time in the Foreign Office was that the old international order was neither a natural phenomenon to which humanity had simply adjusted its behaviour nor a fortuitous aggregation of countless past events of human interaction.

International Law And Land Mines, Joerg Wimmers Jan 1996

International Law And Land Mines, Joerg Wimmers

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

The Review Conference in Vienna' has failed to adopt a revised Convention due to unbridgeable differences among delegations on a strengthened Protocol II of the Convention (Land Mine Protocol). Almost all important provisions of the Protocol were contentious and a number of delegations showed very limited room to move toward a compromise.


Residential Zoning Regulations And The Perpetuation Of Apartheid, Janai S. Nelson Jan 1996

Residential Zoning Regulations And The Perpetuation Of Apartheid, Janai S. Nelson

Faculty Publications

In January of 1996, the South African Parliament ratified the long-awaited Land Reform (Labour Tenants) Bill, which has engendered heated controversy since its inception. For many, the success of the Land Reform Bill portends the economic and political future of South Africa and is a gauge of apartheid's vital signs. Without land, most South Africans would remain in the same impoverished and disenfranchised conditions that they were in under the apartheid regime. With land, however, South Africans have an improved chance to achieve economic equality. Land reform and land use have become particularly crucial issues in light of President Mandela's …


Justice On Trial: The Efficacy Of The International Criminal Tribunal For Rwanda, Melissa Gordon Jan 1995

Justice On Trial: The Efficacy Of The International Criminal Tribunal For Rwanda, Melissa Gordon

ILSA Journal of International & Comparative Law

There can be no peace without justice, no justice without law, and no meaningful law without a court to decide what is just and lawful under any given circumstance. The process of codification, adjudication and enforcement is as vital to a tranquil international community as it is to any independent national state.

-Benjamin B. Ferencz'"

The success of the Yugoslavian and Rwandan War Crimes Tribunals will determine the future of international criminal law. Whether the Tribunals are able to command the attention and respect of the world remains to be seen.

Approaching Aliens: A Plea For Jurisprudential Recovery As A Theoretical Introduction To (Ex)Socialist Legal Systems, Ivan L. Padjen May 1991

Approaching Aliens: A Plea For Jurisprudential Recovery As A Theoretical Introduction To (Ex)Socialist Legal Systems, Ivan L. Padjen

Dalhousie Law Journal

It might be wise to stop here. Even a reader who is sympathetic to jurisprudential imagination must regard the communicable part of my title with considerable misgiving. For he or she can hardly be unaware of the double jeopardy in which the general theorist of law places himself when dealing with socialist legal systems. The first has been aptly described by Alasdair MacIntyre in his parable of a man who aspired to be the author of the general theory of holes.' The moral of the story, that the concept of a hole is a poor foundation for a general theory …


Current Studies In Japanese Law, Whitmore Gray, Kazuo Sugeno, Walter L. Ames, Ronald G. Brown, Richard O. Briggs Jan 1979

Current Studies In Japanese Law, Whitmore Gray, Kazuo Sugeno, Walter L. Ames, Ronald G. Brown, Richard O. Briggs

Books

Over the past fifteen years there has been a remarkable growth in the study of Japanese law in the United States. The foundation was laid during the late 1950's when the Harvard-Michigan-Stanford program brought together Japanese legal specialists and their American counterparts for study and research. At the end of this program a major conference was held, and the resulting publication, Law in Japan, continues to serve as a point of departure in descriptive studies of Japanese law.

During the 1960's interest in Japan continued to develop among law faculty members, but an even more important development was the increase …
