An Address: The Constitution And The Dilemma Of Historicism, Roger S. Ruffin May 1969

An Address: The Constitution And The Dilemma Of Historicism, Roger S. Ruffin

San Diego Law Review

In thinking about the Constitution, we should keep in mind the commonplaces that lace our thinking. We must keep them in sight at both levels: content and character, commonplace and commonplaceness–else their importance may escape us.

Bleak House 1968: A Report On Consumer Test Litigation, Philip G. Schrag Mar 1969

Bleak House 1968: A Report On Consumer Test Litigation, Philip G. Schrag

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Looking beyond the theoretical efficacy of test-case litigation as a solution to the morass of consumers' grievances, the author's experiences suggest the need for basic reform of state procedure in order to permit more speedy resolution of the issues raised by such litigation.
