How Existing Procedures Shape Alternatives: The Case Of Grievance Mediation, Deborah M. Kolb

Journal of Dispute Resolution

Mediation is one of the oldest and most ubiquitous forms of conflict resolution in American society and throughout the world. Traditionally a prominent adjunct to labor and international negotiation, mediation is now used in divorce, family, civil, consumer, commercial and employee relations, environmental planning and siting, and the development of governmental procedures and regulations.' As mediation has penetrated into these new areas of social life, curiosity about the practice of mediation, that is, what mediators actually do to bring about settlement, has increased.

Post-Chicago Law And Economics, Randy E. Barnett

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This is not another "law-and-econ" bashing symposium. Nor is the symposium's title intended to denigrate Chicago School law and economics any more than the term "Post-Keynesian economics" was intended to denigrate the work of John Maynard Keynes. Instead, this symposium marks the fact that many practitioners of law and economics have moved well beyond the stereotypes familiar to most legal academics. Rather than designating an entirely new school of thought, the term "Post-Chicago law and economics" refers to a new era in which a variety of new questions about law and lawmaking is being asked and a variety of promising …

Digging For The Missing Link, John E. Kennedy

Vanderbilt Law Review

Around the year 1200, in the ecclesiastical court, Martin, a rector,sued "the parishioners of Nuthamstead." In 1315, in the exchequer court, two individuals sued "'the rich burgesses'" of Scarborough "'for themselves and the rest of the middling and poor burgesses'" of that town.' Are there any connections between these examples of medieval group litigation and modern American class actions?

In answering "yes" to this question, Stephen Yeazell has given the legal community a book of substantial significance. By exploring English history from the beginning, he has rediscovered missing links in the ancestral chain of litigation prototypes. Yeazell's discovery is impressive, …

A Tale Of Two Cultures: Or Making The Proper Connection Between Law, Social History And The Political Economy Of Despair, Robert J. Cottrol

San Diego Law Review

In this Article, Professor Cottrol examines a pervasive culture of pessimism amongst a minority of underclass Black Americans the likes of which must be addressed if America's laws and public policy is to complete the unfinished work of the Civil Rights Revolution. The author argues that the development this culture is the result of long-term historical trends, the results of which came to fruition after the Second World War. He suggests Americans must shift their focus from familiar histories of southern slavery and Jim Crow to an examination of the histories of race relations in northern cities. Further, the author …

Local Knowledge, Local Color: Critical Legal Studies And The Law Of Race Relations, Gerald Torres

San Diego Law Review

In this Article, Professor Torres examines the meaning and content of Critical Legal Studies (CLS), focusing on the struggle for racial equality. He suggests ways in which understanding the relationship between law and culture can enable, both academics and practitioners, to construct theoretical foundations for the next generation of race relations. Understanding how the law of race relations has emerged and changed over the past twenty-five years is possible only by understanding how the dominant culture has accommodated itself to the changed legal landscape. Central to the inquiry is understanding American cultural pluralism as an expression of cultural domination and …
