Genetic Interventions: (Yet) Another Challenge To Allocating Health Care, Arti K. Rai
Genetic Interventions: (Yet) Another Challenge To Allocating Health Care, Arti K. Rai
San Diego Law Review
Much of the existing literature on genetic intervention addresses questions of discrimination or reproductive decisionmaking. Although this book discusses those questions,
it takes as its major focus an issue that is perhaps even more vexing—the issue of how we should, from the standpoint of distributive justice, allocate genetic interventions. In other words, given the wide range of genetic interventions that may become available, how should we divide such interventions? Implicit in this problem is the reality that scarcity will prevent individuals from having access to all genetic interventions that would be of benefit to them. In this brief Essay, I …
Genetic Enhancement, Distributive Justice, And The Goals Of Medicine, Mark A. Hall
Genetic Enhancement, Distributive Justice, And The Goals Of Medicine, Mark A. Hall
San Diego Law Review
In this brief Essay, I focus on chapter 4 of the book’s discussion of the distinction between treatment and enhancement.
This distinction is at the core of many of the most challenging problems of ethics and public policy raised by genetics. This is also the place where there appears to be disagreement or ambivalence among these authors
and where fault
lines appear in their otherwise remarkably united front.
Punishing Reproductive Choices In The Name Of Liberal Genetics, Alexander Morgan Capron
Punishing Reproductive Choices In The Name Of Liberal Genetics, Alexander Morgan Capron
San Diego Law Review
When the four American moral philosophers who individually have already made the most significant contributions to the ethical analysis of contemporary health care and medicine collaborate, it should come as no surprise that their joint effort is a lucid and powerful analysis of the principles that a just and humane society would employ in setting policies about how the new tools of molecular genetics should be used for human betterment. In From Chance to Choice: Genetics and Justice, Allen Buchanan, Dan W. Brock, Norman Daniels, and Daniel Wikler aimed to steer a middle course between two extreme models. The first …
How Not To End Disability, Janet Radcliffe Richards
How Not To End Disability, Janet Radcliffe Richards
San Diego Law Review
When advances in genetic technology offer the chance of preventing or curing disease and disability, it is one thing to recommend caution on the grounds that these obvious benefits may be outweighed by associated harms. It is quite another to deny even that there are benefits to be outweighed, and that attempts to prevent disability by these means should be resisted outright. That, however, is a view that is increasingly widespread in the disability rights movement.
Is Moral Theory Perplexed By New Genetic Technology?, Richard J. Arneson
Is Moral Theory Perplexed By New Genetic Technology?, Richard J. Arneson
San Diego Law Review
From Chance to Choice: Genetics and Justice
intelligently addresses difficult issues at the intersection of medical ethics and the theory of justice. The authors Allen Buchanan, Dan W. Brock, Norman Daniels, and Daniel Wikler repeatedly emphasized their opinion that advances in genetic technology force upon us entirely new ethical questions that previous moral theories lack the resources to resolve.
The claim that
new scientific discoveries render previous moral theories obsolete should be regarded with suspicion. Suspicion should be further aroused when readers note another feature of the authors’ theorizing that neatly fits the claim that we stand at the dawn …
The Ethics Of Genetic Intervention: Human Research And Blurred Species Boundaries, Rebecca Dresser
The Ethics Of Genetic Intervention: Human Research And Blurred Species Boundaries, Rebecca Dresser
San Diego Law Review
From Chance to Choice: Genetics and Justice1
is a well-written and tightly argued analysis. This Essay addresses two topics meriting more attention than they received from these authors. First, this Essay considers in greater detail a topic the book briefly addresses—the human research necessary to support clinical use of genetic interventions. What appears as simply a step along the way to clinical benefits may actually present serious impediments. Second, this Essay expands on a point the authors mentioned only in passing. They noted that developments in
genetics are blurring traditional species boundaries. Blurred boundaries between humans and other species raise …
A Rawlsian Approach To Solving The Problem Of Genetic Discrimination In Toxic Workplaces, Robert A. Bohrer
A Rawlsian Approach To Solving The Problem Of Genetic Discrimination In Toxic Workplaces, Robert A. Bohrer
San Diego Law Review
The Human Genome Project (HGP) may well be the beginning of a technological leap that rivals the advent of the Industrial Age.2 The principal goal of the project is to map and fully sequence3
the twenty- four chromosomes that contain the complete genetic contents of a
normal human cell. The human genome consists of twenty-two pairs of chromosomes plus the X and Y chromosomes that determine gender.4 As would be expected for such a technologically adventurous undertaking, the HGP has been accompanied by a substantial outpouring of concern about the ethical, legal, and social issues that will arise from this …
Does Technological Enhancement Of Human Traits Threaten Human Equality And Democracy?, Michael H. Shapiro
Does Technological Enhancement Of Human Traits Threaten Human Equality And Democracy?, Michael H. Shapiro
San Diego Law Review
This Article outlines some of the moral, legal, and general policy difficulties that societies and individuals will face if technological enhancements via germ line and somatic mechanisms become possible. It identifies and analyzes some of the conceptual structures necessary to explain the nature of these difficulties, suggests some alternative basic scenarios—such as greater or lesser scarcity of technological enhancement resources, impacts on how we perceive each other, and different remediation patterns—and then maps and reverse maps the projected technological developments against the value and legal structures. This Article also describes and comments on what may seem to be, from our …
Reasonable Expectations And The Erosion Of Privacy, Shaun B. Spencer
Reasonable Expectations And The Erosion Of Privacy, Shaun B. Spencer
San Diego Law Review
This Article examines how the prevailing legal conception of privacy facilitates the erosion of privacy. The law generally measures privacy by reference to society’s reasonable expectation of privacy. If we think of the universe of legally private matters as a sphere, the sphere will contract or (at least in theory) expand in accordance with changing social expectations. This expectation-driven conception of privacy in effect establishes a privacy marketplace, analogous in both a literal and metaphorical sense to a marketplace of ideas. In this marketplace, societal expectations of privacy fluctuate in response to changing social practices. For this reason, privacy is …
Deconstructing Binary Race And Sex Categories: A Comparison Of The Multiracial And Transgendered Experience, Julie A. Greenberg
Deconstructing Binary Race And Sex Categories: A Comparison Of The Multiracial And Transgendered Experience, Julie A. Greenberg
San Diego Law Review
Millions of people are transgendered
and cannot easily be categorized as either male or female. Similarly, millions of people are multiracial and cannot be classified as being of one distinct race. Race classification systems have existed for centuries and have been the subject of extensive commentary and critique for decades. Sex and gender classification systems, on the other hand, have just started to become the subject of litigation in the last half of the twentieth century
and it is only during the last decade that sex classification systems have become the topic of extensive scholarly discussion.
The Purloined Personality: Consumer Profiling In Financial Services
The Purloined Personality: Consumer Profiling In Financial Services
San Diego Law Review
Although almost every sector of the U.S. economy practices consumer profiling,perhaps the most substantive challenge to consumer privacy is found in the activities surrounding the use and disclosure of consumer transaction data by the financial services industry. For that reason, this Comment focuses exclusively on consumer profiling in the context of the financial services sector, defined as banks, credit card issuers, brokerages, and insurance companies.
Pavlovich V. Superior Court: Spinning A World Wide Web For California Personal Jurisdiction*
Pavlovich V. Superior Court: Spinning A World Wide Web For California Personal Jurisdiction*
San Diego Law Review
This Casenote questions the Pavlovich court’s holding. More
specifically, it argues that the exercise of personal jurisdiction in this case violates the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution and that the court erred when it failed to quash service of process. Further, this Casenote posits that exercise of jurisdiction here not only eviscerates the mandates of International Shoe Co. v. Washington and its progeny, but also extends California jurisdiction to cover Internet users everywhere.
Unbuckling The “Chemical Straitjacket”: The Legal Significance Of Recent Advances In The Pharmacological Treatment Of Psychosis, Douglas Mossman
Unbuckling The “Chemical Straitjacket”: The Legal Significance Of Recent Advances In The Pharmacological Treatment Of Psychosis, Douglas Mossman
San Diego Law Review
The
pharmacotherapeutic properties of antipsychotic medications— their actions, therapeutic uses, benefits, adverse effects, contraindications, and risks—are quintessentially medical topics, even when the situations and contexts in which doctors prescribe or recommend their use raise legal questions. Frequently, however, the legal database (that is, published opinions, legislation, regulation, and law review articles) is the principal or sole information source cited and consulted by lawyers, judges, and scholars who write about these drugs and make decisions concerning the persons that may have to take them. What often results is the perpetuation of mistaken, outdated, distorted, biased, contradictory,
or just plain foolish ideas …
Balancing The Anonymity Of Threatened Witnesses Versus A Defendant’S Right Of Confrontation: The Waiver Doctrine After Alvarado, Joan Comparet-Cassani
Balancing The Anonymity Of Threatened Witnesses Versus A Defendant’S Right Of Confrontation: The Waiver Doctrine After Alvarado, Joan Comparet-Cassani
San Diego Law Review
As this Article will show, the Alvarado holding is very narrow, requiring disclosure only when a witness is crucial to the prosecution and when the witness’s credibility is at issue.
The interesting issue left unresolved by Alvarado is whether the identity of a crucial witness whose credibility is not at issue must be disclosed to the defense at trial when the witness has been threatened and attacked by the defendant or at the defendant’s behest. Or, whether because of that intimidation, the defendant has waived his right of confrontation as to the witness’s identity. This question is ripe for exploration …
Sua Sponte Appellate Rulings: When Courts Deprive Litigants Of An Opportunity To Be Heard, Barry A. Miller
Sua Sponte Appellate Rulings: When Courts Deprive Litigants Of An Opportunity To Be Heard, Barry A. Miller
San Diego Law Review
But the Supreme Court and other appellate courts have failed to follow any consistent practice about sua sponte holdings. The difficulty courts have is illustrated by the fact that even the most prominent appellate judges sometimes say they want procedural regularity, but in other cases exercise the freedom to do what they like.
Liberty Not Fully Evolved?: The Case Of Rodney Levake And The Right Of Public School Teachers To Criticize Darwinism, Francis J. Beckwith
Liberty Not Fully Evolved?: The Case Of Rodney Levake And The Right Of Public School Teachers To Criticize Darwinism, Francis J. Beckwith
San Diego Law Review
In 2001, the Minnesota Court of Appeals reviewed the case of Rodney LeVake, a public school teacher who sought to enhance his school
district’s required science curriculum by suggesting to students alternative viewpoints inconsistent with that curriculum. This case, LeVake v. Independent School District, should be of great interest to legal theorists. Its holding, and the reasoning on which it is based, may serve as a Socratic provocation regarding the extent to which public school teachers have constitutional academic freedom (apart from statutory requirements or permission) to voluntarily include criticisms of and alternatives to evolutionary theory.
Clearer Skies For Investors: Clearing Firm Liability Under The Uniform Securities Act
Clearer Skies For Investors: Clearing Firm Liability Under The Uniform Securities Act
San Diego Law Review
Securities fraud poses a major threat to the financial security of millions of investors. Stock fraud and the brokerage firms perpetrating it thrive, bilking investors out of millions of dollars annually. The North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA), an association comprised of state and regional securities regulators, estimates that investors lose $6 billion a year to investment fraud, including micro-cap stock fraud.1 In 2000, Bradley Skolnick, the Indiana Securities Commissioner and former head of the NASAA, stated that boiler rooms were “the single greatest source of investment scams.” Yet defrauded investors are unlikely to recover funds lost to fraud, because …
Into Contract’S Undiscovered Country: A Defense Of Browse-Wrap Licenses
Into Contract’S Undiscovered Country: A Defense Of Browse-Wrap Licenses
San Diego Law Review
The Internet is important not only because of its popularity, but also because of its power for innovation. The Internet has caused an explosion of new services and innovative types of commerce. The Internet has also changed the contours of the marketplace, creating a connected economy in which anyone with a computer and a phone line can do business directly with a maker of goods anywhere in the world and at any time. The Internet has even changed consumers themselves, empowering them with unlimited information about products. The Internet has also changed the relationship that consumers have with products created …

Constitutional Values And The Ethics Of Health Care: A Comparison Of The United States And Germany, William J. Wagner
Scholarly Articles
In the first section, this essay will consider questions the new era in health care poses for a health-care ethics of ends. The second section will address the question this emerging era raises for a health-care ethics of duty. Under the rubric of an ethics of ends, the essay examines, more particularly, the ends of health and efficiency. Under that of duty, it addresses the duties of respect for the dignity of the human person; respect for the covenant of treatment; and respect for justice in distribution. In each case, it seeks to identify the basis for an adequate response …

Eustitia: Institutionalizing Justice In The European Union, Helen Elizabeth Hartnell
Eustitia: Institutionalizing Justice In The European Union, Helen Elizabeth Hartnell
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
Madame Guigou's prediction that a "single judicial space" might be in place by the year 2020 signals a brave new horizon for the rule of law in the European Union. Yet even her dramatic claim fails to convey the range, depth, and momentum of changes wrought by the Treaties of Maastricht and Amsterdam in the realm of justice. The European Union is installing new infrastructure upon which to build a "genuine European area of justice." This "European judicial area" constitutes a key component of the "area of freedom, security and justice" ("AFSJ"). The Amsterdam Treaty added the AFSJ as a …
Levi Strauss V. Tesco And E.U. Trademark Exhaustion: A Proposal For Change, Kimberly Reed
Levi Strauss V. Tesco And E.U. Trademark Exhaustion: A Proposal For Change, Kimberly Reed
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
When the European Court of Justice ("ECJ") issued its final decision in the case of Levi Strauss & Co. v. Tesco Stores Ltd. in November 2001, affirming Levi Strauss' right to keep cut-price imported Levis out of the European Union ("E.U."), the general public was outraged at the perceived blow to consumer rights. The ECJ's decision to allow Levi Strauss to prohibit "gray market" imports of its jeans from the United States for resale in the United Kingdom at prices much cheaper than Levi Strauss' own U.K. prices was characterized as protecting "big business" at the expense of consumers. While …
