Paradigmas Jurídicos Do Ter, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

A questão da propriedade é essencial ao Direito. A forma como com ela lida determina-o na sua essência. Por isso o primeiro grande paradigma jurídico foi o do direito objetivo, com relação de propriedade direta sobre as coisas, depois o subjetivo, em que a relação se subjetiviza e aparentemente (só aparentemente) se imaterializa, ao ponto de hoje tudo ser governado pelos Mercados sem rosto, e tem-se a esperança que possa vir a triunfar um Direito Novo, Humanista, Fraterno, em que conte mais a Pessoa que a propriedade. Este artigo recorda os momentos matinais em que se (de alguma forma miticamente) …

Agenda: Drafting Model Laws On Indoor Pollution For Developing And Developed Nations, University Of Colorado Boulder. Center For Energy & Environmental Security, Colorado Natural Resources, Energy And Environmental Law Review

Drafting Model Laws on Indoor Pollution for Developing and Developed Nations (July 12-13)

On July 12 and 13, 2012, experts convened at Colorado Law to demonstrate the extent to which a model law could help address the global problem of indoor air pollution from inefficient cook stoves. The air pollution that results from inefficiently burning biomass as fuel for cooking has serious health and climatic consequences. The workshop produced two sets of Model Laws and commentaries to help nations solve the problem, and the commentaries were published in the Colorado Natural Resources, Energy, and Environmental Law Review.

Comunicação Política, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

A sociedade de hipercomunicação e de espetáculo têm regras novas, que ainda não terão sido completamente assimiladas. Neste artigo se reflete quase aforisticamente sobre os problemas do diálogo em relação com a educação dos participantes, as bases de comunhão em que qualquer discussão tem de basear-se, o discurso do poder para o povo e do povo para o poder, as figuras deste, a perceção e a caricatura da realidade com aquele fim, e finalmente o papel comunicativo do representante.

Civility And Collegiality—Unreasonable Judicial Expectations For Lawyers As Officers Of The Court?, Lonnie T. Brown

Scholarly Works

It is a well-settled and often-recited fact that lawyers are “officers of the court.” That title, however, is notoriously hortatory and devoid of meaning. Nevertheless, the Eleventh Circuit recently took the somewhat unprecedented step of utilizing the officer-of-the-court label to, in effect, sanction an attorney for the purportedly uncivil act of failing to provide defendant attorneys with pre-suit notice. While the author applauds the court’s desire to place greater emphasis on lawyer-to-lawyer collegiality as a component of officer-of-the-court status, the uncertainty the decision creates in terms of a lawyer’s role will potentially force litigators to compromise important client-centered duties. This …

Exile On Main Street: Competing Traditions And Due Process Dissent, Colin Starger

All Faculty Scholarship

Everybody loves great dissents. Professors teach them, students learn from them, and journalists quote them. Yet legal scholars have long puzzled over how dissents actually impact the development of doctrine. Recent work by notable empirical scholars proposes to measure the influence of dissents by reference to their subsequent citation in case law. This Article challenges the theoretical basis for this empirical approach and argues that it fails to account for the profound influence that uncited dissents have exerted in law. To overcome this gap in the empirical approach, this Article proposes an alternative method that permits analysis of contextual and …

Promise Etc., Gregory Klass

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This Article examines the moral obligations contractual agreements generate. It distinguishes a narrow sense of "promise," central to autonomy theories, according to which to promise is to communicate an intention to undertake an obligation by the very communication of that intention. Not every agreement involves promises in this sense. Yet nonpromissory agreements too commonly generate moral obligations. And even when a party promises to perform, her promise need not be the only reason for her moral obligation to do so. Other possible reasons include reliance, an invitation to trust, implicit or explicit, principles of reciprocity, and the harm that nonperformance …

Funcionários Públicos E Preconceitos Privados, Paulo Ferreira Da Cunha

Paulo Ferreira da Cunha

Açoitado pela crise, o País está crispado, e aponta o dedo a bodes expiatórios. Os verdadeiros culpados pela crise são porém fáceis de encontrar - e nalguns países encontraram-nos, julgaram-nos e condenaram-nos. Mas é interessante como aqui se desviam as atenções para grupos tradicionalmente estigmatizados pelas culpas alheias. Um dos alvos preferidos são os funcionários públicos.
