“Latina/Oization” Of The Midwest: Cambio De Colores (Changes Of Colors) As Agromaquilas Expand Into The Heartland, Sylvia R. Lazos
“Latina/Oization” Of The Midwest: Cambio De Colores (Changes Of Colors) As Agromaquilas Expand Into The Heartland, Sylvia R. Lazos
Scholarly Works
This article focuses on important developments in Latina/o experience in the United States. Latinas/os are now the majority minority group in the United States. Increasingly, Latinas/os are rural dwellers, living in areas without a historical Latina/o presence. Latinas/os are no longer concentrated into the land geography that was Mexico prior to the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. Rather, the most recent wave of Latina/o immigration has dispersed settlement throughout the United States. This article discusses these changes in Midwest rural communities, and describes this new pattern of Latina/o immigration to the United States. The article then focuses on the cultural, socio-economic, …
“Owing To The Extreme Youth Of The Accused”: The Changing Legal Response To Juvenile Homicide, David S. Tanenhaus, Steven A. Drizin
“Owing To The Extreme Youth Of The Accused”: The Changing Legal Response To Juvenile Homicide, David S. Tanenhaus, Steven A. Drizin
Scholarly Works
In this essay, the authors seek to dispel the myth that the juvenile court was never intended to deal with serious and violent offenders; a myth that has largely been unchallenged, especially in the mainstream media, and one that critics of the juvenile court have used to undermine its legitimacy. The discovery of homicide data from the Chicago police department from the early twentieth century, the era in which modern juvenile justice came of age, provides us with new historical date with which to put this dangerous myth to rest, by showing that the nation’s model juvenile court—the Cook County …
Persecution In The Fog Of War: The House Of Lords’ Decision In Adan, Michael Kagan, William P. Johnson
Persecution In The Fog Of War: The House Of Lords’ Decision In Adan, Michael Kagan, William P. Johnson
Scholarly Works
International law requires that a refugee have a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, political opinion or membership of a particular social group. It is not enough to be at risk of being persecuted, nor is it even enough to be a member of a particular race or religion. There must be a “nexus” between the danger and one of the five Convention-recognized reasons for persecution. In the 1998 decision in Adan v. Secretary of State for the Home Department, the House of Lords concluded that a man fleeing clan warfare in Somalia could not …

Empirical Studies Contribute To Death Penalty Debate, Joan W. Howarth
Empirical Studies Contribute To Death Penalty Debate, Joan W. Howarth
Scholarly Works
At a time of renewed scrutiny of capital punishment, Nevada lawyers may be interested in some of the recent legal scholarship on the death penalty based on social science data, rather than on legal philosophy or constitutional theory. Three projects are of particular interest: Professor James Liebman's work on errors in death penalty cases; the National Jury Project's data about how jurors decide capital cases; and David Baldus' recent study of peremptory challenges in capital cases.
Casebooks Are Toast, Robert Laurence
Casebooks Are Toast, Robert Laurence
Seattle University Law Review
Into the fine spinach salad that is this Symposium on commercial law casebooks comes a grain of sand. An annoying defect in the total presentation. A distracting flaw that should not take away from the value of the remainder of the mix, but somehow does. For I am the one whose job it is to say that casebooks as a genre are dying, soon, I think, to become extinct. "Dinosaurs," a prior generation would have called them; "toast" in modern parlance. The future of law school teaching materials lies on the Web.
Sovereignty: The State, The Individual, And The International Legal System In The Twenty First Century, Ronald A. Brand
Sovereignty: The State, The Individual, And The International Legal System In The Twenty First Century, Ronald A. Brand
Articles
This essay proposes that an understanding of original concepts of sovereignty both helps explain twentieth century developments in international law and provides a proper context for coming changes in the ways in which persons relate to states, states relate to states within the international legal system, and ultimately and most importantly-the way international law affects and applies to persons. The most important developments in international law in the new century are likely not to be in state-state relationships but rather in the status and rights of the person in international law. The twentieth century process of globalization brought us back …
