The Right To Die As An Issue Of Privacy: A Selective Bibliography, Sandra Klein

Sandra S. Klein

The issue of whether or not an individual has the right to choose when he or she will die, is a very controversial one for many reasons. Further complicating the issue is the question of who, if anyone, has the right to decide for those who are unable to choose for themselves. The bibliography which follows includes articles which discuss this topic from a right to privacy perspective, and should prove useful to those researchers who are new to the subject, as well as to those who are already familiar with the many complex issues involved.

Your Right To Privacy And Children's Rights/Family Law: A Selective Bibliography, Sandra Klein

Sandra S. Klein

In a society increasingly aware of real or perceived social inequities, it is not surprising to note a greater concern for the rights of children and their families. It is also apparent that privacy issues are an integral subset of the larger social sphere of interests. Privacy aspects can be seen to be involved pervasively throughout the area of law dealing with children and families, especially in view of the fact that there is obvious potential for conflict not only between families and the state, but between children and the families of which they are a part

Sandra S. Klein

The bibliography which follows addresses the privacy concerns of those infected with the AIDS virus.

Sexual Freedom And Your Right To Privacy: A Selective Bibliography, Sandra Klein

Sandra S. Klein

Like so many other privacy issues, concern over sexual freedom took on more than intellectual overtones with the advent of greater public discussion.

This bibliography should serve as a valuable tool for researchers who have an interest in this highly controversial area of social concern.

Robert MacCoun

This brief addresses the issue of jury performance and jury responses to expert testimony. It reviews and summaries a substantial body of research evidence about jury behavior that has been produced over the past quarter century. The great weight of that evidence challenges the view that jurors abdicate their responsibilities as fact finders when faced with expert evidence or that they are pro-plaintiff, anti-defendant, and anti-business.

The Petitioners and amici on behalf of petitioners make a number of overlapping, but empirically unsupported, assertions about jury behavior in response to expert testimony, namely that juries are frequently incapable of critically evaluation …

The Cathedral' At Twenty-Five: Citations And Impressions, James Krier, Stewart Schwab

Melamed, formerly a student of Calabresi's, is now a seasoned Washington attorney. Their article-which, thanks to its subtitle, we shall call The Cathedral-has had a remarkable influence on our own thinking, as we tried to show in a recent paper2 This is not the place to rehash what we said then, but a summary might be in order. First, we demonstrated that the conventional wisdom about …
