Sodomy And Prostitution: Laws Protecting The “Fabric Of Society”, Nicole A. Hough
Sodomy And Prostitution: Laws Protecting The “Fabric Of Society”, Nicole A. Hough
The University of New Hampshire Law Review
[Excerpt] “Throughout history many people have viewed sodomy and prostitution as moral evils, because sex has often been linked to sin and, therefore, to immorality and guilt. For example, in ancient Hebrew, a sodomite was known as a qadhesh, a male temple prostitute who was associated with heathen deities and impure forms of worship. The female version of qadhesh, qedheshah, is translated directly as prostitute. This archaic view of labeling prostitution and sodomy as impure has been challenged over time, and both topics are still a source of great controversy. […]
This note is a comparative analysis of sodomy and …

On What A "Private Attorney General" Is--And Why It Matters, William B. Rubenstein
On What A "Private Attorney General" Is--And Why It Matters, William B. Rubenstein
Vanderbilt Law Review
May 17, 2004 marked the fiftieth anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision in Brown v. Board of Education.' This precise day also marked the sixty-first anniversary of the Supreme Court's first use of the phrase "private attorney general." For about three decades after this initial 1943 appearance, the private attorney general concept surfaced only occasionally in the legal literature. Starting in the 1970s, however, its presence became quite regular, and that regularity has escalated steadily to the present: on average, during the past fifteen years, every single workday, somewhere in the United States, some judge has written a legal opinion …
Bilingualism And Equality: Title Vii Claims For Language Discrimination In The Workplace, James Leonard
Bilingualism And Equality: Title Vii Claims For Language Discrimination In The Workplace, James Leonard
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Linguistic diversity is a fact of contemporary American life. Nearly one in five Americans speak a language other than English in the home, and influxes of immigrants have been a constant feature of American history. The multiplicity of languages in American society has touched nearly all aspects of American culture, and specifically has added new and important challenges to the American workplace. Chief among these new concerns are the growing number of legal claims centered around language discrimination in the workplace. The common vehicle for these claims has been Title VII, and there is considerable support in the academic literature …

Hearing The Danger Of An Armed Felon- Allowing For A Detention Hearing Under The Bail Reform Act For Those Who Unlawfully Possess Firearms, Matthew S. Miner
Hearing The Danger Of An Armed Felon- Allowing For A Detention Hearing Under The Bail Reform Act For Those Who Unlawfully Possess Firearms, Matthew S. Miner
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Article advocates an interpretation of the Bail Reform Act that affords courts the ability to hold detention hearings in gun crime cases to evaluate defendants' potential danger to the community. According to an interpretation advanced by some courts, gun possession offenses do not constitute "crimes of violence" within the meaning of the Act and therefore those charged with such crimes, even ifth ey have a prior felony conviction, are not subject to pre-trial detention. Arguing against this approach, the Article looks to the Bail Reform Act, the relevant federal case law, and the alarming statistics concerning the growing use …
When Nice Guys Finish First: The Evolution Of Cooperation, The Study Of Law, And The Ordering Of Legal Regimes, Neel P. Parekh
When Nice Guys Finish First: The Evolution Of Cooperation, The Study Of Law, And The Ordering Of Legal Regimes, Neel P. Parekh
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
This Note adds to the scholarship in the area of Evolutionary Analysis and the Law (EA). EA is a paradigm that comments on the implications of evolution on the law. EA recognizes that many complex human behaviors that the law seeks to regulate have evolutionary origins that remain relevant today. This Note details how an understanding of the evolutionary basis of cooperation can bring about favorable revisions and reforms in the law.
Following a review of the scientific foundation of EA, this Note sets forth the proposition that humans have an evolutionarily developed tendency to cooperate, an idea that contrasts …
