Title Vii Compensation Issues Affecting Bilingual Hispanic Employees, David Allen Larson

Faculty Scholarship

This article deals the workers who are bilingual and their accompanying compensation on the job.

Yet bilingual Hispanic employees required to use both languages …

San Miguel Del Bado And The Loss Of The Common Lands Of New Mexico Community Land Grants, G. Emlen Hall Jan 1991

San Miguel Del Bado And The Loss Of The Common Lands Of New Mexico Community Land Grants, G. Emlen Hall

Faculty Scholarship

No United States governmental action has so rankled revisionist New Mexico land grant scholars as the Supreme Court Sandoval decision in 1897. In that ruling the court held that Spanish and Mexican law had not vested in New Mexico's extensive community land grants a sufficient title to the unallotted common lands within the grant boundaries to bring those lands within the property guarantees of the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848. The Supreme Court employed at best opaque Spanish and Mexican legal authority to justify its decision; the historical legal analysis has been roundly, if not universally, criticized on that …

The University of Maryland provides 'clinical education' in two distinct ways, through its Clinical Law Office, and through its Legal Theory and Practice courses.

Quite recently, the Law Faculty began the Legal Theory and Practice courses, which combine the study of doctrine and legal theory …

The Cuny Law Program: Integration Of Doctrine, Practice & Theory In The Preparation Of Lawyers, Barbara L. Bezdek

Faculty Scholarship

The CUNY Law Program differs markedly from every other law school in the United States. Founded in 1983, at a great, diverse, public university sprawling across New York City, its curriculum emerged from the Law School's mandate to rethink the traditional law school curriculum and develop approaches oriented toward public interest and public service law, with emphasis on clinical teaching methods. In this paper, the author provides a concrete description of the CUNY Program, and articulates the principles expressed by CUNY's extensive redesign of typical American legal education. Since it began in 1983, the CUNY Law Program has been the …

The Japanese International Law 'Revolution': International Human Rights Law And Its Impact In Japan, Kenneth L. Port Jan 1991

The Japanese International Law 'Revolution': International Human Rights Law And Its Impact In Japan, Kenneth L. Port

Faculty Scholarship

Some observers have argued that because of a lack of enforcement powers, international law has relatively little impact on the conduct of nations and, in fact, may not be "law" at all. Others have inquired whether legal norms which underlie international human rights law have any influence on the domestic law of signatory nations. This article argues that international law can profoundly influence the development of the domestic laws of nations regardless of the lack of coercive enforcement powers. This point becomes clear through a consideration of Japan's experience in adopting and internalizing international law norms.
