The Evolution Of The Digital Millennium Copyright Act; Changing Interpretations Of The Dmca And Future Implications For Copyright Holders, Hillary A. Henderson Jan 2014

The Evolution Of The Digital Millennium Copyright Act; Changing Interpretations Of The Dmca And Future Implications For Copyright Holders, Hillary A. Henderson

Hillary A Henderson

Copyright law rewards an artificial monopoly to individual authors for their creations. This reward is based on the belief that, by granting authors the exclusive right to reproduce their works, they receive an incentive and means to create, which in turn advances the welfare of the general public by “promoting the progress of science and useful arts.” Copyright protection subsists . . . in original works of authorship fixed in any tangible medium of expression, now known or later developed, from which they can be perceived, reproduced, or otherwise communicated, either directly or with the aid of a machine or …

Gustavo Rojas Pinilla, Y La Violencia Política.®, Daniel Fernando Gómez Tamayo

Daniel Fernando Gómez Tamayo

El magnicidio de Jorge Eliecer Gaitán el día 9 de abril de 1948. La presencia de Fidel Castro en las manifestaciones del caudillo y el interés de líder Cubano por fortalecer los lazos de amistad política y social con Colombia. ¿Qué federales de la CIA estuvieron en Colombia en los días previos al 9 de abril de 1948 ? ¿quién fue el realmente culpable del magnicidio del líder liberal ? Por interpretación sociológica: los oficiales usaban armas largas; por pruebas de balística que reposan en el Museo Gaitán nos quedan dudas razonables con respecto al uso exclusivo de una sola …


The Battle For The Soul Of International Shoe, Eric H. Schepard Aug 2013

The Battle For The Soul Of International Shoe, Eric H. Schepard

Eric H Schepard

In 2011, Justice Kennedy’s plurality opinion in J. McIntyre Machinery, Ltd. v. Nicastro repeatedly cited International Shoe v. Washington, a 1945 decision that transformed the law of personal jurisdiction. Kennedy believed that International Shoe broadly supported his position that a state may hear a suit arising from a within-state workplace injury to its citizen only if the foreign (out-of-state) corporate defendant specifically markets its products to that state. This article reexamines the jurisprudence of International Shoe’s author, Chief Justice Harlan Fiske Stone, to argue that Kennedy hijacked International Shoe’s half-buried legacy of judicial restraint. Scholars have suggested that Stone hoped …

Daniel Fernando Gómez Tamayo

Reflexiones Jurídicas en torno al atentado de Jhon.F.Kennedy. Ahora bien, en el caso JFK las preguntas son: ¿ Lee Harvey Oswald fue realmente víctima de un caso de injuria y de calumnia por parte de los federales corruptos del FBI?, Según Marita Lorenz, una espía que amó a Fidel Castro sostiene con respecto a Lee H Oswald que: " lo vio débil para coger un rifle." Entonces, ¿ la comisión Warren impostó justicia en el crimen? Ciertamente, el indiciado era una persona inimputable al que se le negó el derecho de defensa y el debido proceso; es más, por análisis …


Present At The Creation: Reflections On The Early Years Of The National Association Of Corporate Directors, Lawrence J. Trautman Jul 2013

Judicial Diversity On State Supreme Courts, John D. Castiglione, Gregory L. Acquiaviva Jan 2009

Judicial Diversity On State Supreme Courts, John D. Castiglione, Gregory L. Acquiaviva

John D. Castiglione

State courts of last resort are, in many ways, the primary expositors of law in the United States. Criminal law, contracts, family law, wills, trusts, and estates -- just to name a few -- fall within their purview. And yet, we know surprisingly little about just who sits on these courts -- state supreme court judges have been described as “perhaps the most important and least written about group within the judicial system” of the United States. Indeed, the last study on the characteristics and experiences of the state supreme court justices is almost fifteen years old. This Article presents …

Women At Work: Towards An Inclusive Narrative Of The Rise Of The Regulatory State, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.

Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr. (J.S.D., New York University School of Law)

Abstract: This Article seeks to enrich what we know about the establishment of the regulatory state. It focuses on women’s contribution to the rise of the American regulatory apparatus. By looking at historical sources and archival materials, this Article illustrates how women reformers were central to the development of the regulatory state and how they were guided by an ideology that called for government regulation to provide decent standards of living. Through the example of the establishment of the Women’s Bureau in the U.S. Department of Labor, the Article expands our understanding of the purposes of administrative bodies, and it …
