The Sense Of Justice And The Justice Of Sense: Native Hawaiian Sovereignty And The Second "Trial Of The Century", William H. Rodgers Jr. Apr 1996

The Sense Of Justice And The Justice Of Sense: Native Hawaiian Sovereignty And The Second "Trial Of The Century", William H. Rodgers Jr.

Washington Law Review

In 1993, Congress apologized to the Native Hawaiians for the political funny business of a century ago when the pineapple and sugar interests overthrew the Kingdom of Hawaii with tactical help from U.S. officials. Another apology will be in order for an unconscionable political trial now underway in the islands to punish one of the sovereignty leaders, Dennis "Bumpy" Kanahele, for a variety of imagined offenses that amount to the infliction of embarrassment on the U.S. To put this essay in context, it should be understood, first of all, that the struggle for Native Hawaiian lands and sovereignty is a …

Thinking Like A Lawyer: Second Thoughts, James R. Elkins Mar 1996

Thinking Like A Lawyer: Second Thoughts, James R. Elkins

Mercer Law Review

What does it mean to have a law-trained mind? What kind of purposes and achievements are held out to those who seek schooling in law? What kind of failures are associated with those who adopt a legal mind-set? What happens to the moral sensibilities of those who follow the path of teachers who claim to teach you to "think like a lawyer"? How does a law education shape one's ethics and how is this education put to work in the practice of law? What do we become as a result of an education in law? These are difficult questions because …

Quod Omnes Tangit: Remarks On Jurgen Habermas’S Legal Theory, Niklas Luhmann Mar 1996

Quod Omnes Tangit: Remarks On Jurgen Habermas’S Legal Theory, Niklas Luhmann

Cardozo Law Review

Quod omnes tangit, omnibus tractari et approbari debet. The Middle Ages found this rule in Roman law. It had to do with the circumstance of a plurality of legal guardians over the same ward. In the typical case, one guardian's approval was legally sufficient authorization in legal transactions. Since every other rule had seriously damaged business dealings, the business partner's confidence had to be protected. On the other hand, this consideration-that one guardian's approval is legally sufficient authorization for an emancipation-could not have led to a fully realized emancipation of a ward. Nor could it have led to the …

The Impact Of Sociological Jurisprudence On International Law In The Inter-War-Period: The American Experience, Samuel J. Astorino Jan 1996

The Impact Of Sociological Jurisprudence On International Law In The Inter-War-Period: The American Experience, Samuel J. Astorino

Duquesne Law Review

Two visions of world order clashed dramatically in the period between World War I and World War II. One vision advocated the position that if there were an agreement on the meaning and function of law, perhaps it then would be possible to build a world order based on the obligations of law instead of force. The other vision advocated that if there were a realistic understanding of the inadequacies or impossibilities of international law, perhaps it then would be possible to build a stable world order based on a realistic political concept of force. This article examines how the …

Rationality And The Foundations Of Positive Political Theory, Mathew D. Mccubbins, Michael F. Thies Jan 1996

Rationality And The Foundations Of Positive Political Theory, Mathew D. Mccubbins, Michael F. Thies

Faculty Scholarship

In this paper, we discuss and debunk the four most common critiques of the rational choice research program (which we prefer to call Positive Political Theory) by explaining and advocating its foundations: the rationality assumption, component analysis (abstraction), strategic behavior, and theory building, in turn. We argue that the rationality assumption and component analysis, properly understood, can be seen to underlie all social science, despite the protestations of critics. We then discuss the two ways that PPT most clearly contributes to political science (i.e., what distinguishes it from other research programs), namely the introduction of strategic behavior (people do not …
