La Lex Mercatoria Contextualisée: Tracer Son Parcours Intellectuel, Dave De Ruysscher
La Lex Mercatoria Contextualisée: Tracer Son Parcours Intellectuel, Dave De Ruysscher
Dave De ruysscher
Lex mercatoria is, as a label for contemporary transnational commercial law, well known from legal literature regarding international markets . Some arguments with respect to that concept have historical implications: a medieval body of commercial law is often considered as the predecessor of the lex mercatoria of today. Yet, legal historians have recently questioned whether a medieval commercial law existed in a uniform sense in different locations. As a result, the intellectual history of the concept of lex mercatoria is the more interesting. In this article, it is demonstrated that this notion was introduced in legal literature on international markets …
Reviewing The American University Law Review On Extraterritoriality: A Critical Response To Viki Economides, Note, Tianrui Group Co. V. Itc: The Dubious Status Of Extraterritoriality And The Domestic Industry Requirement Requirement Of Section 337(Link), Jonathan R. K. Stroud
Jonathan R. K. Stroud
Recently, the Federal Circuit upheld the Commission’s decision to exclude goods based on a trade secret violation that largely happened abroad. The American University Law Review critiqued that decision on two grounds: First, that a presumption against extraterritorial application of U.S. law applied; and second, that licensing alone could not establish a domestic industry. The American University Law Review's critique remains incomplete, however, as the Federal Circuit correctly decided the case for at least two reasons. first, the Federal Circuit correctly applied the “extraterritorial presumption” canon of construction; and second, the recent Federal Circuit decision in InterDigital Communications LLC v. …

Editorial: Social Implications Of Technology- “Il Buono, Il Brutto, Il Cattivo”, Katina Michael
Professor Katina Michael
Late last year, IEEE SSIT was invited to put together a paper for the centennial edition of Proceedings of the IEEE that was published in May 2012. The paper titled, “Social Implications of Technology: The Past, the Present, and the Future,” brought together five members of SSIT with varying backgrounds, and two intense months of collaboration and exchange of ideas. I personally felt privileged to be working with Karl D. Stephan, Emily Anesta, Laura Jacobs and M.G. Michael on this project.
Contract And Dispossession, Deborah W. Post
Contract And Dispossession, Deborah W. Post
Deborah W. Post
This Essay, part of a collection of essays on the same theme, argues that contract law has become an instrument of oppression and dispossession rather than liberation. Having offered a critique, the challenge then is to consider whether it is possible to restore the liberatory potential of contract. The symposium, Post-Marxism, Post-Racialism & Other Fables of the Dispossession, was an invitation to consider the contemporary relevance of Marxist theory. There are two reference points in this cultural critique. One is the importance of social position in a jurisprudence that embraces objectivity; the uncritical and unreflective reliance on hegemonic social practices, …

Pre-Occupazione E In-Occupazione Giovanile. Risposte Del Diritto “Riflessivo” Al Mercato Del Lavoro, Michele Faioli
Michele Faioli
The core idea of this essay is that strengthening social security system is key to making the duality of labor law, as it reflects the tension between law and markets, a positive force for reconciling demands for modernization with demands for decent work. This essay sets the stage for a larger-scale comparative project on the duality of labor law which arises from the functioning of labor law in relation to the application of the principle of decency at work.

Fiss, Groups and the Equal Protection Clause, 5 PHIL. & PUB. AFF. 107 (1976). Professor Fiss's article should have been listed in 72nd place (with 729 citations) in Table I, Most-Cited Law Review Articles of All Time. Professor Fiss's article fell into the category of articles published in nonlegal journals with over 50 percent of the citations to them occurring in legal journals. See Shapiro & Pearse, supra, at 1487-88. This category by its …
In Defense Of Feres: An Unfairly Maligned Opinion, Paul F. Figley
In Defense Of Feres: An Unfairly Maligned Opinion, Paul F. Figley
Paul Figley
The Supreme Court’s 1950 Feres v. United States decision held that when it enacted the Federal Tort Claims Act Congress did not intend to waive sovereign immunity for injuries to members of the military arising out of activity incident to their service. The Court’s decision was influenced by the long history of efforts to enact a general tort claims bill that would free Congress from the burden of processing claims against the government, as well as the case law, statutes, and procedures pertaining to service-members’ injuries prior to enactment of the Federal Tort Claims Act. This Article examines those influences …

Freedom To Achieve: The Future Of Student-Led Organizations Within The Public School System, Braden W. Johnson
Braden W Johnson
On-campus religious organizations have received special protections according to their First Amendment rights and the Equal Access Act of 1984. As more controversial organizations have been incorporated within the public school system, school administrators have found it increasingly hard to control the effects of these groups. This article argues for a revision to the Equal Access Act which strengthen's a school's ability to place restrictions on the formation of controversial clubs.

Could A Hub And Spoke, Homegrown Ceo Strategy Boost The Success Of University Start-Ups?, Brendan O. Baggot, Martin R. Graf Phd
Brendan O. Baggot
How can universities make more money with their spinout company (SpinCo)‐suitable technologies? By “growing” their own CEOs to improve both the quality and quantity of startup company leaders available, that’s how. Surprisingly, however, at most universities little or no effort is made to interweave this critical need into tech transfer efforts.

Back To The Future: Introducing Constructive Feminism For The Twenty-First Century: A New Paradigm For The Family And Medical Leave Act, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Back To The Future: Introducing Constructive Feminism For The Twenty-First Century: A New Paradigm For The Family And Medical Leave Act, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr. (J.S.D., New York University School of Law)
Abstract: At least ninety percent (90%) of American parents, mothers and fathers, say they are experiencing an acute shortage of time spent with family and an intense work-family conflict. This article provides a history and a theory that should inform our conceptualization of work-family regulation. It points to the neglected history of working-class social feminism. It shows how working-class social feminists at the beginning of the twentieth century advocated for “constructive feminism”—government support, by way of labor regulation, of what this article terms “multidimensionalism”—a life enriched by meaningful dimensions of work, family, civic participation, and culture. The Article extends this …

Labor Regulation As Family Regulation: Decent Work And Decent Families, Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr.
Arianne Renan Barzilay Dr. (J.S.D., New York University School of Law)
It is due time that we understood that regulating the family has been a longstanding goal of labor regulation. This article presents the trajectory of labor regulation as family regulation. It provides a history of the "decent standards" discourse pertaining to wage and hour regulation, and reveals its double meanings: to provide "decent work" and to promote "decent families. " It terms the goal of providing decent standards of work and wages as "productive decency" and the goals pertaining to family decency, proper gender norms, and sexual purity as "repressive decency. " It shows how labor regulation surprisingly began in …
From Usages Of Merchants To Default Rules: Practices Of Trade, Ius Commune And Urban Law In Early Modern Antwerp, Dave De Ruysscher
From Usages Of Merchants To Default Rules: Practices Of Trade, Ius Commune And Urban Law In Early Modern Antwerp, Dave De Ruysscher
Dave De ruysscher
In sixteenth-century Antwerp, commercial contracts were supported with refined government-made rules that brought techniques, usages and customs practised by merchants to the level of sophisticated law. Because no body of unwritten substantive law on commerce existed and because commercial practices were often too rudimentary from a legal perspective, in the 1500s detailed and balanced normative precepts on contracts of trade came to be crafted. When in the first decades of the sixteenth century more and more foreign merchants visited Antwerp, its rulers gradually started supplementing and upgrading practices of merchants to default rules regarding contracts, with materials and concepts drawn …

Befriar Leken Från Ansvar? Om Bdsm, Samtycke Och Social Adekvans, Linnéa Wegerstad
Linnéa Wegerstad
Våren 2012 arrangerade Juridisk Publikation i Lund en paneldebatt på temat ”BDSM och samtycke” som jag fick förmånen att moderera. Debatten utgick från det så kallade Malmöfallet som rör åtal för misshandel i samband med BDSM-utövning. Denna artikel tar avstamp i den fråga som fick avsluta debatten, nämligen om detta uppmärksammade fall har diskuterats klart. Min ståndpunkt är att genom fallet väcktes flera principiellt viktiga frågor som bör dryftas vidare. Dessa spörsmål, som rör hur sexuella praktiker som kan utgöra straffrättsligt relevant våld hanteras i straffrätten, vill jag synliggöra genom den här artikeln. Inledningsvis ges en redogörelse för samtyckes ansvarsbefriande …

Eradicating The Mothering Effect: Women As Workers And Mothers, Successfully And Simultaneously, Rona Kaufman Kitchen
Rona Kaufman Kitchen
In the United States, the need for federal legislation to address work-family conflict has never been more pressing. Mothers are the primary caretakers of their children even while they participate in the paid market in record numbers. However, because the workplace is designed to accommodate the needs of the traditional male, mothers often face distinct challenges when combining their paid market and care work. For example, middle-class families are working longer hours than ever before, over 70 percent of mothers participate in the paid labor market, and mothers earn 30 percent less than their male counterparts. Meanwhile, two-thirds of mothers …

Off-Balance: Obama And The Work-Family Agenda, Rona Kaufman Kitchen
Rona Kaufman Kitchen
During his bid for the Presidency, Barack Obama specifically identified work-family conflict as a key issue that would receive attention and reform if he became President. After entering the White House, President Obama continued to consistently articulate that work-family balance issues were a priority for America's families and for his administration. In May 2011, the President reaffirmed his dedication to the issues that face working parents, stating that his administration was, "striving to help mothers in the workplace by enforcing equal pay laws and addressing workplace flexibility as families balance the demands of work, child and elder care, and education." …
