Youth Justice In A Unified Court: Response To Critics Of Juvenile Court Abolition, Janet Ainsworth Jan 1995

Youth Justice In A Unified Court: Response To Critics Of Juvenile Court Abolition, Janet Ainsworth

Faculty Articles

In this article, Professor Ainsworth argues that a unified criminal justice system is preferable to our present two-tiered adult-juvenile court system. In fact, she contends that the cultural and ideological assumptions that underpin the current two-tiered justice system not only engender many of the serious shortcomings of the juvenile justice system, but also serve to exacerbate the very policies and practices of the adult criminal justice system that make it so abhorrent to defenders of the juvenile court. Critics of juvenile court abolitionists thus miss the point when they argue that juveniles would be worse off than they are at …


The Other Dimension Of Law, Pierre Legendre Jan 1995

The Other Dimension Of Law, Pierre Legendre

Cardozo Law Review

What kind of a questioning would make it possible for psychoanalysis to become theoretically useful for jurists? How could such a questioning have an effect on the practice of law? In the same measure, is it theoretically plausible for psychoanalysts, attached as they are to their own casuistry, to interrogate the law? What must be recognized from the start, if this questioning is to be more than superficial, is that the intellectual and social dogmas of today are obstacles to the liberty of thought [esprit].


The O.J. Inquisition: A United States Encounter With Continental Criminal Justice, Myron Moskovitz Jan 1995

The O.J. Inquisition: A United States Encounter With Continental Criminal Justice, Myron Moskovitz

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

October 3, 1995 marked the end of the O.J. Simpson double murder trial, which lasted 474 days and was billed "the trial of the century." After less than four hours of deliberation, the jury acquitted Mr. Simpson of all charges. The following article is a dramatization of how a case similar to the Simpson trial might be handled by a civil-law European criminal justice system.

Utilizing an unusual format, Professor Myron Moskovitz examines and illustrates the differences between the United States and civil-law European criminal justice systems. The author uses a play script inspired by the events in the trial …

The Invisible Cupola: From Casual To Collective Attribution In Ecological Liability, Gunther Teubner Dec 1994

The Invisible Cupola: From Casual To Collective Attribution In Ecological Liability, Gunther Teubner

Cardozo Law Review

When I speak about the cupola, it is not Brunelleschi's architectural masterpiece crowning the Florentine duomo that appears before my eyes. Rather, I see the ugly architecture of organized crime, the brutal supersecret "cupola" on top of the Mafia's hierarchy which overshadows social life in Italy. Does this cupola exist or not? Over the recent years, the Mafia's cupola has been the object of a bitter struggle between Italian judges. While the lower courts have been sending numerous mafiosi to prison because they were part of the invisible cupola controlling "tutti i grandi delitti," the court of the next instance …


The Punishment Of Hate: Toward A Normative Theory Of Bias-Motivated Crimes, Frederick M. Lawrence Nov 1994

The Punishment Of Hate: Toward A Normative Theory Of Bias-Motivated Crimes, Frederick M. Lawrence

Michigan Law Review

This article explores how bias crimes differ from parallel crimes and why this distinction makes a crucial difference in our criminal law. Bias crimes differ from parallel crimes as a matter of both the resulting harm and the mental state of the offender. The nature of the injury sustained by the immediate victim of a bias crime exceeds the harm caused by a parallel crime. Moreover, bias crimes inflict a palpable harm on the broader target community of the crime as well as on society at large, while parallel crimes do not generally cause such widespread injury.

The distinction between …
