Comment: Race, Property Rights, And The Economic Consequences Of Reconstruction, Robert B. Jones

Vanderbilt Law Review

Professors Haws and Namorato are to be praised for their pioneer work in studying the operation of a county court system in the Reconstruction era. They break new historical ground in this effort that has the potential for greatly contributing to the study of the legal history of the South. More scholars must engage in this endeavor if the field of legal history is to reach its full maturity. While their efforts are to be complimented it must be pointed out, however, that they generally fail to make their case in this Article. They do not show a significant link …

Advocacy As Moral Discourse, Thomas L. Shaffer

Journal Articles

Advocacy at its best is a form of reconciliation. It reconciles the advocate with those whose champion he proposes to be. It reconciles the advocate with his hearers. It reconciles the person whose cause is advocated with the persons who hear advocacy. It brings to community life a new sense of the interests of those the community neglects. It seeks to make things better. It is moral discourse.

This article will examine advocacy in two contexts. The first is advocacy to an institution, conducted in the name of justice or the welfare of the community; one might call this first …

Professor Jones And The Constitution, Henry Paul Monaghan

Faculty Scholarship

Professor Harry Jones's elegant and stimulating Waterman lectures begin on a salutary note. Professor Jones rightly reminds us that, first and foremost, a constitution is not exclusively or primarily a limitation on the exercise of political power, but rather is a charter for its exercise. Accordingly, to view the Constitution as "all brakes and no engine" suggests a serious and fundamental myopia, albeit an understandable one given the popular preoccupation with the Supreme Court's role in vindicating guarantees of civil liberty. But that preoccupation, Professor Jones notes, does more than distort the meaning of the Constitution; it ignores an historically …

France: Libraries Of Law And Librarians, Claire M. Germain

UF Law Faculty Publications

The author, who is a French national, made a curious discovery not long ago. Apparently nothing has been published concerning French law libraries and law librarians. In fact, very little had been written on French libraries at all. The thought of filling this gap slowly developed, prompted by a desire to contribute to the field of international law librarianship (and also perhaps by a touch of nationalistic pride!).

This paper is the result of a survey of French libraries with substantial law collections, undertaken in the winter of 1978-79 in Paris and the province. Long conversations were pursued with French …

Some Aspects Of Abuse Of Dominant Positions In European Community Antitrust Law, John Temple Lang

Fordham International Law Journal

This article starts by looking at Article 86 of the ECC Treaty governing antitrust violations and the significance of "dominant position" in applying the Rule. The author then explains how in light of United Brands v. Commission, a Court of Justice of the European Communities Court, evidence of dominance may be classified in four categories. Next, the author explains the different types of abuses under Article 86. Finally, the author draws four conclusions. First, the contrast drawn by various authors between the EEC law, which prohibits abuse of a dominant position, and U.S. law, which forbids "monopolisation", is exaggerated and …

On The Relevance Of Philosophy To Law: Reflections On Ackerman's Private Property And The Constitution, Philip E. Soper

Articles

To turn to moral philosophy these days for help in trying to decide "what to do" is a bit like turning to recipe books for help in a famine. One soon discovers that most philosophers avoid ultimate questions about actual choices in actual cases, preferring to concentrate instead on a preliminary problem: how to go about thinking about what to do. One also discovers that philosophers who have written about this preliminary problem of the structure of moral inquiry are neatly divided, as logically they must be, into precisely two camps: those who do and those who do not think …
