Letting Bayous Be Bygones: Should Louisiana Be Allowed To Mandate Use Of The Pre-Socialist Vietnam Flag?, Nami Kim

Washington International Law Journal

The State of Louisiana recently enacted S.B. 839, a state law that mandates the use of the flag of the former Democratic Republic of Vietnam at all state-sponsored public functions and public schools where Vietnam is to be represented. S.B. 839 has added further tension to the relationship between Vietnam and the United States, which is already strained by the unresolved issue of American prisoners of war ("POWs"), those missing in action ("MIA") in Vietnam, and the recent opening of Vietnam's economy to the rest of the world. Although fifty-nine cities and three other states in the United States have …

Employer-Based Training Programs For Tanf Recipients: A Public Policy Examination, Nan S. Ellis

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The article begins by stating that several programs have been introduced with the goal of lowering the amount of people that live below the poverty level. These programs try to accomplish this by focusing on getting such people jobs, but the focus cannot solely be on workers, it must also be on employers. One type of training that shows promise is Employer-based training, which involves an extensive assessment of the employees skills and job performance, and there are indications that EBT programs might offer better opportunities for at least a segment of the welfare population. The article's goal is to …

Policing Post-9/11, Robert J. Louden

Fordham Urban Law Journal

This paper therefore is an attempt to consider post-September 11 law enforcement activities in the context of organized policing in America. Many concepts and procedures used as illustrations have been undertaken by various police agencies. This demonstrates how previously accepted police practices may be changed in part by reaction to crisis legislation or other influences. New York City programs may or may not serve as benchmarks for other agencies. In these times of threat and response some important factors about preparing police for role change became apparent. First, there is a need to specify the new reality and determine what …

The “Threat Of Terrorism” And The Right To The Cit, Peter Marcuse

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Restrictions on the everyday use of public space; restrictions on access to public buildings; restrictions on political expression and assembly for political purposes; restrictions on the freedom of immigrants to use public facilities and services in the city; increased segregation, exclusion, and concentrated decentralization of residences and economic activities are all key examples of the way the false threat of terrorism has been used to restrict rights to the city. The Right to the City has never been fully recognized in modern times. The false response to the threat of terrorism has made its realization even more remote.

Fordham Urban Law Journal - Essay- Local Policing In A Post - 9/11 World

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The era following September 11, 2001 will be remembered as the golden age of law enforcement, the age of a bold paradigm shift inspired by the great challenges we face. It is instructive first to reflect on the old paradigm: as law enforcement agencies, we moved like swimmers in different lanes, all going the same direction with the same mission, yet also working by and for ourselves. Each criminal justice agency dealt with its own issues, staying—for the most part—in its own lane. Then, 9/11 changed everything. Indeed, it is our turn to be the greatest generation. Just as World …

The Return Of Spending Limits: Campaign Finance After Landell V. Sorrell, Richard Briffault

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The article begins by introducing Landell and stating that it is an important decision in campaign finance law because it is the first time since Buckley that a court has held that a candidate expenditure limitation can be constitutional. It then goes through a history of the evolving judicial consideration of candidate expenditure limitations, discussing cases such as Buckley, Homans, and Landell. The article continues by discussing the Landell panels assertion that public funding and spending limits may actually be in conflict with one another. It then goes through some arguments that make the case for spending limits, including prevention …

Securing America’S Capital, Patricia E. Gallagher

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The concrete barriers, sewer pipes, and chain-link fencing that prompted the National Capital Planning Commission’s security efforts inconvenienced city residents, workers, and visitors and degraded the appearance of one of the most carefully designed and naturally beautiful cities in the world. And yet, what made these barriers intolerable was their underlying message—that the nation’s capital would allow terrorists to limit the American hallmark of open access. The National Capital Planning Commission does not ask federal agencies to ignore the threat reality, but it does ask that agencies cease to install monuments of fear and retrenchment. As the capital’s watchful steward, …
