Implementasi Peraturan Daerah Dalam Otonomi Daerah Menjadi Salah Satu Parameter Good Governance, Ananda Rayhana Putri
"Dharmasisya” Jurnal Program Magister Hukum FHUI
Regional Regulation as one of the regional legal products is something inherent with the Regional Autonomy system. This is a consequence of the regional autonomy system itself which is based on independence and is not a form of freedom of an independent government unit. Independence itself means that the Region has the right to regulate and manage the domestic affairs of its own government. The authority to regulate here means that the region has the right to make legal decisions in the form of laws and regulations. In forming a region it is not easy because it requires sufficient knowledge …
The Uncertain Future Of Administrative Law, Jeremy K. Kessler, Charles F. Sabel
The Uncertain Future Of Administrative Law, Jeremy K. Kessler, Charles F. Sabel
Faculty Scholarship
A volatile series of presidential transitions has only intensified the century-long conflict between progressive defenders and conservative critics of the administrative state. Yet neither side has adequately confronted the fact that the growth of uncertainty and the corresponding spread of guidance – a kind of provisional “rule” that invites its own revision – mark a break in the development of the administrative state as significant as the rise of notice-and-comment rulemaking in the 1960s and 1970s. Whereas rulemaking corrected social shortsightedness by enlisting science in the service of lawful administration, guidance acknowledges that both science and law are in need …
Keeping Faith With Nomos, Steven L. Winter
Manufactured Emergencies, Robert Tsai
Manufactured Emergencies, Robert Tsai
Articles in Law Reviews & Other Academic Journals
Emergencies are presumed to be unusual affairs, but the United States has been in one state of emergency or another for the last forty years. That is a problem. The erosion of democratic norms has led to not simply the collapse of the traditional conceptual boundary between ordinary rule and emergency governance, but also the emergence of an even graver problem: the manufactured crisis. In an age characterized by extreme partisanship, institutional gridlock, and technological manipulation of information, it has become exceedingly easy and far more tempting for a President to invoke extraordinary power by ginning up exigencies. To reduce …

Magna Carta's Rule Of Politics, John F. Preis
Magna Carta's Rule Of Politics, John F. Preis
Law Faculty Publications
Eight hundred years ago last week in a meadow west of London, King John of England did something peculiar for a king: He promised to obey "the law of the land." And thus was born, we have been taught, America's "rule of law" - the principle that political leaders must act within boundaries set out in law.
English kings at that time did not feel bound to obey the law (much less anything else), so John's promise is typically celebrated as a huge step forward in the history of good government. It is entirely proper to remember Magna Carta for …

The Impact Of Public Approval Of Congress On Midterm Congressional Election Outcomes, Jordan L. Goldman
The Impact Of Public Approval Of Congress On Midterm Congressional Election Outcomes, Jordan L. Goldman
Honors Theses
Over the past half-century, the United States Congress has become less revered by the American people. The Constitution names Congress as the first branch of government. The framers instituted Congress in Article One of the Constitution to symbolize the importance of the rule of law of the people. Its members were to be chosen members of the public, rather than royalty or nobility, to give the branch a sense of democratic legitimacy. However, during the past fifty years, public opinion of the first branch of government has waned. The reasons for this diminished respect are complex and numerous. In general …
Human Rights Approaches Of Corruption Control Mechanisms - Enhancing The Hong Kong Experience Of Corruption Prevention Strategies, C. Raj Kumar
San Diego International Law Journal
This Article is intended to make a case for promoting transparency in governance policies from a human rights perspective so as to argue for the development of a human right to good governance in Hong Kong. Secondly, it analyzes the work of the Independent Commission against Corruption (ICAC) in Hong Kong and addresses certain concerns in improving the efficiency of the ICAC. Thirdly, it argues that rights against corruption in Hong Kong should move beyond a law enforcement and public policy issue and attain the status of a human right. Fourthly, this Article examines the growth and development of international …

Constitutional Interpretation, Terrance Sandalow
Constitutional Interpretation, Terrance Sandalow
Articles
"[We] must never forget," Chief Justice Marshall admonished us in a statement pregnant with more than one meaning, "that it is a constitution we are expounding."' Marshall meant that the Constitution should be read as a document "intended to endure for ages.to come, and, consequently, to be adapted to the various crises of human affairs."'2 But he meant also that the construction placed upon the document must have regard for its "great outlines" and "important objects."'3 Limits are implied by the very nature of the task. There is not the same freedom in construing the Constitution as in constructing a …
Government Information And The Rights Of Citizens, Michigan Law Review
Government Information And The Rights Of Citizens, Michigan Law Review
Michigan Law Review
This Project delineates the federal and state responses to these two fundamental societal concerns. The course of the discussion suggests the vitality of these concerns, and the flexibility and continuing development of the governmental responses. Clearly, the interests in maximizing disclosure of government-held information and minimizing the handling and dissemination of unnecessary or inaccurate personal information can conflict. The contours of this conflict, only intimated herein, will doubtless become more bold with the maturation of the opposing statutory schemes.
Local Government In Sweden, Terrance Sandalow
Local Government In Sweden, Terrance Sandalow
Articles
Ever since the publication of Marquis Childs' The Middle Way, Americans of liberal persuasion have tended to point to Sweden as a model, a nation which simultaneously has achieved rapid economic growth, eliminated poverty, and maintained individual and political freedom. Swedish cities, and especially Stockholm, are reputed to be among the best planned in the world. Yet, for all the admiration that has been expressed, there has been surprisingly little investigation by Americans of the legal and governmental framework within which the Swedes have accomplished so much. The modest aim of this paper is to report the major outlines of …
Legislation On The American Frontier: Adoption Of Laws By Governor And Judges-Northwest Territory 1788-1798: Indiana Territory 1800-1804; Michigan Territory 1805-1823, William Wirt Blume
Legislation On The American Frontier: Adoption Of Laws By Governor And Judges-Northwest Territory 1788-1798: Indiana Territory 1800-1804; Michigan Territory 1805-1823, William Wirt Blume
Michigan Law Review
The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 made provisions for legislation by the territorial government in two stages: (1) adoption of laws by the governor and judges from the laws of the original states, and (2) enactment of statutes by a legislature made up of the governor, a council, and elected representatives. The first method was to be followed until the population should reach 5,000 and the second method thereafter. The present study is limited to the first stage.
The Executive Department Of Government And The Rule Of Law, Frank E. Cooper
The Executive Department Of Government And The Rule Of Law, Frank E. Cooper
Michigan Law Review
For a long time, people have been talking about the executive department of government and the Rule of Law. Indeed, the suggestion of Aristotle that government should be by law, and not by men, represented a protest directed to the earlier Grecian systems of despotically controlled administrative law. It is my privilege this afternoon to carry forward the discussion of a problem that has been talked about for some two thousand years: how to apply the Rule of Law to the executive agencies of the government. They are commonly called "independent agencies" within the executive branch. I suggest that the …
