Bob Dylan On Lenny Bruce: More Of An Outlaw Than You Ever Were, Louise Harmon
Bob Dylan On Lenny Bruce: More Of An Outlaw Than You Ever Were, Louise Harmon
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Essay seeks to compare and contrast two contemporary performing artists: Bob Dylan and Lenny Bruce. Bruce and Dylan both became artists in the middle of twentieth-century America—in the same stew of ideas, myths, and shared assumptions. Both experienced the same winds of change, albeit at different stages of life, in the 1950s and 1960s, the post-World War II Cold War period, the burgeoning civil rights movement, and the Vietnam War. Both responded to these winds of change, and in so doing, transcended and transformed their respective art forms.

The Freewheelin’ Judiciary: A Bob Dylan Anthology, Alex B. Long
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Judges at all levels in the United States judicial system have cited Bob Dylan far more often than any other popular music artist. The logical question then becomes, “why?” Why is Dylan (rather than John Lennon, Woody Guthrie, or some other prominent and sociallyconscious songwriter) the preferred songwriter for judges, and why do judges feel the need to cite Dylan’s lyrics to begin with? What are they hoping to convey to the reader about the legal issue at hand, the legal system in general, or about themselves that causes them to rely on the works of Dylan? What type of …

Symposium: Bob Dylan And The Law Foreword, Samuel J. Levine
Symposium: Bob Dylan And The Law Foreword, Samuel J. Levine
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Taken together, the articles in this Symposium Issue provide a journey through both Bob Dylan’s career and the American legal landscape. Befitting a legal prophet, Dylan is often critical, skeptical, and cynical, at times uncompromising in his portrayal of the failures of American law and society. The presentations at the Dylan and the Law Symposium reflected, in part, the disappointment and frustration expressed in Dylan’s words and music. Yet, the speakers at the Symposium echoed another side of Bob Dylan’s work: a refusal to surrender or despair in the face of disheartening reality. Instead, drawing upon Dylan’s prophetic dreams and …
Incompletely Theorized Agreements: An Unworkable Theory Of Judicial Modesty, Yavar Bathaee
Incompletely Theorized Agreements: An Unworkable Theory Of Judicial Modesty, Yavar Bathaee
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Comment examines the conflicting demands on American courts to safeguard the will of the legislature, ensure the protection of the minority, and resolve particular disputes and redress particular injuries. The manner and scope in which a court theorizes is critical as it binds future courts and litigants to its decisions. Professor Cass Sunstein proposes a jurisprudence of minimalism and supports theoretical modesty in the form of the "incompletely theorized agreement", the notion that individuals can agree on less theorized principles to resolve cases at hand without resorting to high-level theoretical pronouncements. This Comment addresses Sunstein's minimalist regime within the …
Applying The Laws Of Logic To The Logic Of Laws, Hillel Bavli
Applying The Laws Of Logic To The Logic Of Laws, Hillel Bavli
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The article begins by discussing the difficulties of proving consistency within a formal legal system generally. After establishing the importance of a formalized legal model as a prerequisite of rigorous examination of consistency, it proceeds to investigate issues intrinsic to the current system of law that may prevent formalization of a just legal system as currently conceived. The article argues that flexibility inherent in a just legal system may foreclose the possibility of legal formalization or any comprehensive model thereof. The article concludes, however, that a model whose purpose is the examination of consistency within a system need not necessarily …
