Crossing Boundaries: Nineteenth-Century Domestic Relations Law And The Merger Of Family And Legal History, Michael Grossberg
Crossing Boundaries: Nineteenth-Century Domestic Relations Law And The Merger Of Family And Legal History, Michael Grossberg
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This essay argues for the need to study the legal history of the American family. It does so by combining a critique of secondary literature in family and legal history with examples from nineteenth-century domestic relations law. These examples, drawn from family law doctrines on seduction under the cover of a marriage promise, runaway marriages, and bastardy, are used to indicate the benefits of adding a sociocultural dimension to legal history and legal and institutional dimensions to family history. Three main themes in the history of nineteenth-century domestic relations law are developed to make these points: the law's particular fabric …
English Common Law In Virgina, William Hamilton Bryson
English Common Law In Virgina, William Hamilton Bryson
Law Faculty Publications
By statute the common law of England is the basis of the common law of modern Virginia. This reception statute refers to the customary, unwritten law of the kingdom of England, but only that part which was general and common to all parts of England. That the English common law is the foundation of the law of Virginia is a matter not merely of a modern statute but also of history and reason.
Indian Allotment Water Rights, Richard B. Collins
Indian Allotment Water Rights, Richard B. Collins
Publications
Allotted tribal lands create troublesome questions for western water lawyers. In this article the author reviews the history of basic Indian reservation water rights created by the Supreme Court's landmark decision in Winters v. United States. He then explains the disposition of those rights when reservation lands are allotted. Finally, he discusses the difficult issues that arise when allotted lands pass from the federal trust become subject to state law, and are transferred to non-Indians.

The courts must bear a heavy share of the burden of American racism. An outpouring of historical scholarship on racism and the American law reveals the outrageous and humiliating extent to which American lawyers, judges, and legislators created, perpetuated, and defended racist American institutions. The law is not autonomous, however, particularly in areas of explicit public policy making. Lawyers did not invent racism. Rather they created racist institutions because society was racist and racism was implicit in its values. The trend in scholarship on the legal history of American racism, however, has been to place most of the blame for …

Review Of The Justice Of The Western Consular Courts In Nineteenth Century Japan, Whitmore Gray
Review Of The Justice Of The Western Consular Courts In Nineteenth Century Japan, Whitmore Gray
Reviews
Richard Chang attacks the generalization accepted by many historians that the Western consular tribunals in nineteenth-century Japan were so partial- toward West- erners and against Japanese-that they seldom rendered evenhanded justice. His study required two steps. First he tried to determine how many "mixed" cases came to trial-cases in which aJapanese brought a claim against a foreign resident in a consular court or was the complaining party in criminal proceedings against a foreigner. Between 1875 and 1895 there were five such cases that were widely reported and commented on at the time, and that have often been cited as examples. …

The Logic Of Legal Reasoning In Religious And Non-Religious Cultures: The Case Of Islamic Law And The Common Law, Wael B. Hallaq
The Logic Of Legal Reasoning In Religious And Non-Religious Cultures: The Case Of Islamic Law And The Common Law, Wael B. Hallaq
Cleveland State Law Review
It is only reasonable to assume that dissimilar legal systems possess dissimilar patterns of legal reasoning. Inasmuch as two legal systems differ in their structure and function, they also differ in the types of arguments they employ in their service. It may well be argued that law is, in the final analysis, the product of the premises and methods from and through which it is derived. Two such legal systems which display a vast difference in their overall structure and function are Islamic law and the common law. This paper proposes to shed some light on the logic of legal …

On 'Positivism' And 'Legal Rational Authority', John M. Finnis
On 'Positivism' And 'Legal Rational Authority', John M. Finnis
Journal Articles
This Article critiques Anthony Kronman’s book Max Weber, which provides an interpretation of Weber’s social theory of law concerning positivism and legal rational authority. In particular, the three premises of Kronman’s thesis regarding social theory are considered and their weaknesses are explained. Through this critique, the Author argues that no good reason has been presented to accept that Weber’s positivist theory is of value.
The Guilds Of Law In Medieval Legal History: An Inquiry Into The Origins Of The Inns Of Court, George Makdisi
The Guilds Of Law In Medieval Legal History: An Inquiry Into The Origins Of The Inns Of Court, George Makdisi
Cleveland State Law Review
Medieval England presents the student of legal history with a number of interesting peculiarities. Among these are the common law and the schools where it was taught, the Inns of Court. English law was the only native law in medieval Europe, functioning distinctly from both civil and canon law. It was judge-made, and followed the case-law method peculiar to it, distinct from the codification system of civil and canon law. Its schools, the Inns of Court, were, in Christendom, the only law schools of their kind that came out of the Middle Ages into modern times. These and other features …
English Common Law And Islamic Law In The Middle East And South Asia: Religious Influences And Secularization, Herbert Liebesny
English Common Law And Islamic Law In The Middle East And South Asia: Religious Influences And Secularization, Herbert Liebesny
Cleveland State Law Review
In England, during the first half of the seventeenth century a serious conflict having both legal and political implications arose concerning the Royal Prerogative. King James I insisted upon the Royal Prerogative, which placed the King above the law and gave him absolute power. Sir Edward Coke, on his part, argues that the common law was above the King's Prerogative. This led to a violent clash between Coke and the King in November 1608. A general discussion of the further development of common law and of the decisive role of Parliament is beyond the framework of this Article. One aspect, …
Formal Rationality In Islamic Law And The Common Law, John Makdisi
Formal Rationality In Islamic Law And The Common Law, John Makdisi
Cleveland State Law Review
Rationality in a legal system suggests a consistent set of legal propositions as well as methods for modifying, limiting, and expanding the laws which are governed by some type of logical apparatus. It is a desirable characteristic because it furthers one of the primary ends of a legal system: It facilitates social interaction by enabling members of society to calculate the consequences of their conduct. It is not an easy concept to define, however. Rationality may take different forms, more or less formal, more or less innovative. These different forms shall be examined to determine the type of rationality which …
Authority, Autonomy, And Choice: The Role Of Consent In The Moral And Political Visions Of Franz Kafka And Richard Posner, Robin West
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
In "The Ethical and Political Basis of Wealth Maximization" and two related articles, Professor (now Judge) Richard Posner argues that widely shared pro-autonomy moral values are furthered by wealth-maximizing market transfers, judicial decisions, and legal institutions advocated by members of the "law and economics" school of legal theory. Such transactions, decisions, and institutions are morally attractive, Posner argues, because they support autonomy; wealth-maximizing transfers are those to which all affected parties have given their consent. This Article argues that Posner's attempt to defend wealth-maximization on principles of consent rests on a simplistic and false psychological theory of human motivation. Posner's …
