It Takes A Militia: A Communitarian Case For Compulsory Arms Bearing, Glenn Harlan Reynolds
It Takes A Militia: A Communitarian Case For Compulsory Arms Bearing, Glenn Harlan Reynolds
Scholarly Works
In this Essay, the authors demonstrate that Communitarians and militias actually have more in common than it might at first appear. Summarizing the Communitarian agenda, the authors note that Communitarians speak a language that would be readily understood by the Framers, who saw militias as an important vehicle through which civic virtue could be transmitted.

Counsel For The Situation: The Latin Notary, A Historical And Comparative Model, Pedro A. Malavet
UC Law SF International Law Review
Compared to the legal profession found in the United States, in Latin countries an impartial counsel who advises all parties to a transaction is located at the top of the legal hierarchy and is referred to as the Latin notary. The Latin notary is granted exclusive power to perform certain legal functions such as memorialization of transactions. The Latin notary combines the competence traditionally associated with a public official and the discretion and responsibility of a private legal professional. For these reasons, the Latin notary is quite different from notaries public in the United States. The Latin notary owes a …

"Irresponsible" Reproduction, Linda C. Mcclain
"Irresponsible" Reproduction, Linda C. Mcclain
UC Law Journal
A prominent target of recent calls to restore personal responsibility through changes in law and public policy is "irresponsible" reproduction: a cluster of reproductive behaviors and choices including "illegitimacy," single-parent families, divorce, abortion, and adolescent sexual activity and parenthood. In this Article, Professor McClain critically evaluates the rhetoric of irresponsible reproduction. She identifies three paradigmatic models of irresponsibility-the single mother, the welfare mother, and the teen mother-and the three corresponding aspects of irresponsibility-immorality, unaccountability, and incapacity. Focusing upon the recent national debates over welfare reform, she argues that the rhetoric of irresponsible reproduction cannot serve as an adequate basis for …

Liberty Without Equality: The Property-Rights Connection In A Negative Citizenship Regime, David Abraham
Liberty Without Equality: The Property-Rights Connection In A Negative Citizenship Regime, David Abraham
Articles
Why, in comparison with other liberal capitalist democracies, is the social welfare state so poorly anchored in American law and public discourse? Surely American political and social history have contributed much to the weakness of our "social state." But law, too, has played a significant material, as well as ideological, role and has provided the terrain for much of our social development. This essay explores the particular contribution of the property-liberty nexus to the stunted development of positive liberty and social citizenship in the United States. It traces this connection from the natural rights and bourgeois Founders through several key …

Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote
Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote
Articles
This Article begins by examining the judiciary's role in employment litigation. Part II then considers the implications of this and related examples of judicial creation of norms in Japan. Plainly, in this context the stereotype of a passive judiciary with little significance for private parties is inaccurate. Yet do these cases truly reflect judicial "activism"? What is their significance with respect to the separation of powers debate? Even with regard to the sphere of private ordering, what judicial philosophy do they reflect? This Article then examines the impact that this judicially created set of employment norms has had, both on …
"Irresponsible" Reproduction, Linda C. Mcclain
"Irresponsible" Reproduction, Linda C. Mcclain
Faculty Scholarship
In recent years, there have been countless calls for reversing the rise in irresponsibility in American society.' Calls for restoring personal responsibility in both private and political life sound from both of the major political parties as well as from various cultural critics, pundits, and academics. 2 Proponents of a return to personal responsibility wage their battle on numerous fronts, advocating a cultural revolution, a moral revival, and a recovery of "virtue" to bring about a reformation of attitudes and behaviors regarded as troublesome. 3 Many voices now urge that law and public policy should encourage, or require, personal responsibility …
Bringing Foucault Into Law And Law Into Foucault, Hugh Baxter
Bringing Foucault Into Law And Law Into Foucault, Hugh Baxter
Faculty Scholarship
The announced purpose of Alan Hunt and Gary Wickham 's book Foucault and Law, is "to demonstrate the pertinence of [Michel] Foucault for contemporary issues in legal studies. " In this review essay, I acknowledge the important contributions Hunt and Wickham have made, both in introducing basic Foucaultian concepts to a legal academic audience, and in identifying the defects in Foucault's explicit discussions of law. Yet, I contend, the authors turn too quickly from Foucault's work toward their own new research project, the "sociology of law as governance." Rather than constructing a new subdiscipline of the sociology of law, I …

Standing Alone: Standing Under The Fair Housing Act, Michael E. Rosman
Standing Alone: Standing Under The Fair Housing Act, Michael E. Rosman
Missouri Law Review
In 1980, one of the leading authorities on housing law noted that the Supreme Court had been "especially active" in the 1970's in addressing standing problems in cases with allegations of housing discrimination;' indeed, he wrote that "standing problems in fair housing cases seem to have grown out of all proportion to their proper place in this field. Part I of this article reviews the general principles of standing as they have been enunciated in the last few decades by the Supreme Court. Part II examines the analysis of the "injury" requirement in Ragin v. Harry Macklowe, and points out …

A Lieber Bibliography, With Annotations
Institutions And Linguistic Conventions: The Pragmatism Of Lieber's Legal Hermeneutics, Guyora Binder
Institutions And Linguistic Conventions: The Pragmatism Of Lieber's Legal Hermeneutics, Guyora Binder
Journal Articles
This article presents Francis Lieber’s 1839 treatise “Legal and Political Hermeneutics” as a surprisingly modern and pragmatic account of interpretation. It first explicates the two most important influences on Liber’s thought, the romantic philology of Friedrich Schleiermacher, and the institutional positivism of Whig jurists Story and Kent. It shows that both of these sources frankly acknowledged that interpretation is an institutional practice, organized by the evolving aims and customs of the institutions within which it took place. Both tended to view the writing and reading of texts as the deployment of linguistic conventions. Both movements thereby viewed meaning for all …

Institutions And Linguistic Conventions: The Pragmatism Of Lieber's Legal Hermeneutics, Guyora Binder
Cardozo Law Review
Like many other forms of social thought, legal theory has, over the last quarter century, taken an "interpretive" turn. Recent and contemporary writing on legal hermeneutics may be credited with two sensible but unsurprising claims about legal language.

The Seventeenth-Century Revolution In The English Land Law, Charles J. Reid Jr.
Cleveland State Law Review
It is the purpose of this Article to explore systematically the creation of the new system of land law in the seventeenth century.

Successive sections will then treat the abolition of the feudal tenures and the adoption of socage tenure, the defeat of copy hold and the triumph of the enclosure movement, the creation of the rule against perpetuities and the strict settlement, and the creation of the modem trust and mortgage instruments.
