Disqualifiying Universality Under The Americans With Disabilities Act Amendments Act, Michelle Travis
Disqualifiying Universality Under The Americans With Disabilities Act Amendments Act, Michelle Travis
Michelle A. Travis
This Article reveals a new resistance strategy to disability rights in the workplace. The initial backlash against the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) targeted protected class status by characterizing the ADA's accommodation mandate as special treatment that benefitted the disabled at the expense of the nondisabled workforce.

Congress responded with sweeping amendments in 2008 to expand the class of individuals with disabilities who are entitled to accommodations and …

'Real Time' Strategies For Relational Conflict, Thomas J. Stipanowich
Thomas J. Stipanowich

Today, more and more disputants and counsel are recognizing that less is usually more—especially when the emphasis is on maintaining relationships or relational systems. The need for speedy and effective intervention has promoted the evolution of a wide range of strategies in very different relational settings, from integrated conflict systems in the workplace …
