Jazz Improvisation And The Law: Constrained Choice, Sequence, And Strategic Movement Within Rules, William W. Buzbee
Jazz Improvisation And The Law: Constrained Choice, Sequence, And Strategic Movement Within Rules, William W. Buzbee
Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works
This Article argues that a richer understanding of the nature of law is possible through comparative, analogical examination of legal work and the art of jazz improvisation. This exploration illuminates a middle ground between rule of law aspirations emphasizing stability and determinate meanings and contrasting claims that the untenable alternative is pervasive discretionary or politicized law. In both the law and jazz improvisation settings, the work involves constraining rules, others’ unpredictable actions, and strategic choosing with attention to where a collective creation is going. One expects change and creativity in improvisation, but the many analogous characteristics of law illuminate why …
Don't Go In The Water: On Pathological Jurisdiction Splitting, Jamison E. Colburn
Don't Go In The Water: On Pathological Jurisdiction Splitting, Jamison E. Colburn
Journal Articles
Waters and water rights have endured (or induced) a uniquely pathological tendency in our tradition to split up the authority to declare the operative legal interests therein. By studying three seemingly unrelated areas of waters and water rights law, this tendency is brought out in its essence and linked to explicit foundations and likely causes. Ultimately, this kind of extreme jurisdiction splitting is rendering our waters ungovernable, forcing even the most basic legal questions to go undecided. The last part of the article introduces three different reform pathways but cautions against the search for quick fixes of any kind.

Choice Of The Applicable Law In United States Maritime Law And The Venezuelan System, Daniel Eric Vielleville
Choice Of The Applicable Law In United States Maritime Law And The Venezuelan System, Daniel Eric Vielleville
LLM Theses and Essays
International maritime transport is an important means of transport in international trade. The vessels used in international maritime transport face unique dangers which necessitate maritime law that addresses the perils associated with maritime transport. Maritime law concerns many jurisdictions, which creates a special interest for the study of conflict of laws. There are private international maritime laws in addition to multilateral treaties. This paper analyzes the international approach that the United States takes in maritime conflict of laws, and compares it with the Venezuelan system of private international law. Venezuela is a civil law country with old maritime legislation which …

The Offshore Constitutional Settlement Western Australia 1988, Fisheries Department Of Western Australia
Fisheries management papers
In June 1987 under the Offshore Constitution Settlement (OCS), the Australian and West Australian State Governments completed the first stage of rationalising jurisdiction over a number of fisheries operating off the West Australian coast. Arrangements under the OCS for West Australian fisheries fall into three catagories: 1. fisheries managed by the State under State law as far seaward as the arrangement specifies. 2. fisheries managed by the West Australian Fisheries Joint Management Authority under State laws in waters were the arrangement applies. 3. fisheries managed by the Commonwealth under Commonwealth law in waters where the arrangement applies. Eleven of the …
