Cross-Cultural Communication In A Crisis: The Universality Of Visual Narrative In The Covid-19 Pandemic, Michael D. Murray
Cross-Cultural Communication In A Crisis: The Universality Of Visual Narrative In The Covid-19 Pandemic, Michael D. Murray
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
A primary goal of twenty-first century legal works is to communicate the law effectively to diverse audiences. Many of the most needful and most vulnerable audiences for legal information have members who lack basic literacy skills and suffer linguistic and cultural confusion from verbal textual media—namely, the printed word. Yet for centuries, legal rules and government restrictions have been communicated nearly exclusively through the printed word. Recent scholarship in visual legal rhetoric, visual literacy studies, and visual cultural studies is informed by cognitive psychology and neuroscience that all points to a solution: visual communication of the law. Visual communication is …
Diagrammatics And The Proactive Visualization Of Legal Information, Michael D. Murray
Diagrammatics And The Proactive Visualization Of Legal Information, Michael D. Murray
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
This article performs an analysis of one mode of visual legal communication:
diagrammatics and the visualization of legal data and other information
in legal instruments and communications.

literate persons. The overall goal of the Proactive Law movement and a
primary goal of Legal Design is to …

Art museums are the aristocrats of the charitable sector, with all
the virtues and vices of the aristocracy. In their prime, they are glorious
exemplars of the finest in cultural expression. But in their dotage,
they are weak and vulnerable, constitutionally incapable of avoiding
financial ruin. Some art museums have even gone bankrupt and dissolved,
despite owning large collections of extremely valuable objects.
What explains this paradox? Deaccessioning rules: professional
rules governing art museums and art museum directors that prohibit
the sale of works of art for the purpose of generating capital. When
art museums find themselves in financial distress, …
The Procedure Of Election Law In Federal Courts, Joshua A. Douglas
The Procedure Of Election Law In Federal Courts, Joshua A. Douglas
Law Faculty Scholarly Articles
Election law scholars have paid scant attention to the different procedures by which courts decide election law cases. Further, there has been little exploration of the reasons why certain processes exist, and there is even less discussion of which procedures are best for election law cases. One commentator has advocated for state legislatures to define clearly certain procedural matters for election contests, including: “(1) who can be a contestant; (2) what standard of evidence to require; and (3) how to expedite contests.” But there are more fundamental and foundational questions: What goals are we trying to achieve in enacting special …
