The Politics Of Lawmaking: Problems In International Maritime Regulation: Innocent Passage V. Free Transit, George P. Smith Ii
The Politics Of Lawmaking: Problems In International Maritime Regulation: Innocent Passage V. Free Transit, George P. Smith Ii
Scholarly Articles
Free transit and innocent passage as internationally recognized maritime rights present few problems. Complexities arise when some states - dissatisfied with innocent passage because of alleged weaknesses in its operation and implementation - seek to modify or completely transform this right into the broader right of free transit through certain territorial waters in international straits in disregard of coastal state needs. Other states assert there can be neither a re-evaluation nor a modification of the right of innocent passage and the right of free transit until agreement is first reached on the extent of expanded fishing rights and rights for …
The F.T.C. Does Lord Mansfield In, Ralph J. Rohner
The F.T.C. Does Lord Mansfield In, Ralph J. Rohner
Scholarly Articles
After years of writhing agony at the hands of courts and legislatures, one of the most venerable of legal rules has bitten the dust, and it happened right here in Washington, D.C. The victim is the holder in due course rule as it applies to consumer credit transactions. The slayer is neither the Supreme Court nor the Congress but the oft-maligned Federal Trade Commission. The seismic event occurred just before Thanksgiving of 1975 when the commission issued its final version of a trade regulation rule entitled "Preservation of Consumers' Claims and Defenses." The rule was officially promulgated on November 14, …

Manipulating The Genetic Code: Jurisprudential Conundrums, George P. Smith Ii
Manipulating The Genetic Code: Jurisprudential Conundrums, George P. Smith Ii
Scholarly Articles
This article considers the scientific, legal, ethical, and social issues of the Brave New World of Biotechnology as they existed in 1976 and as they exist — interestingly — today. Central to these issues (e.g., in vitro fertilization, genetic planning) presented in historical context, is consideration of the extent to which freedom of scientific investigation should be allowed and even encouraged by the government. In order to shape normative standards of conduct from which ethical constructs can be developed and policy developed, scientific experimentation must be promoted and designed to safeguard the common good — this, by enhancing opportunities for …
Professional Power And Judicial Review: The Health Professions, William A. Kaplin
Professional Power And Judicial Review: The Health Professions, William A. Kaplin
Scholarly Articles
The recent wave of public concern about health care has precipitated a trend toward public scrutiny of professional standards. This trend has created a tension in the system which is prompting a redefinition of the role of professionalism within the health care system, as well as a rethinking of governmental and public roles in the system's operation. Courts and legislatures, the ultimate propounders of public policy, can play a crucial role in this redefinition and rethinking. As policy makers and interest groups have sought firmer handholds on the professionally dominated standard-setting processes, the demands on courts and legislatures to scrutinize …
