The Law's Precarious Hold On Life, Lon L. Fuller

Georgia Law Review

IN 1916 Roscoe Pound delivered a famous address under the title, The Limits of Effective Legal Action.1 In that address Pound sought to demonstrate to his hearers that the law is not an all-purpose tool, that there are social problems it cannot solve, that the practice of calling out its rough engine in answer to every social alarm can not only damage society, but also may end by destroying the effectiveness of the law itself, even for those tasks for which it is eminently suited.

My theme has a considerable affinity with that pursued by Pound in 1916. Both have …

Vietnam And Public International Law: Comment, Anthony A. D'Amato

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

With each international crisis inevitably come the self-styled "realists" proclaiming that there is no such thing as public international law. The Vietnam war is no exception, although here, due to the unusual complexity of the facts and the controversy over the applicable rules of international law, many of the published replies to the "realist's" positions have themselves been insubstantial and unconvincing. Let us look first, briefly, at the arguments of one of the realists, and then, with equal brevity, at some of the counter claims. The remainder of this comment will be addressed to the larger issues involved and some …

Some Reminiscences Of Japan's Commission On The Constitution, Kenzo Takayanagi

Washington Law Review

On June 11, 1956, the Commission on the Constitution was created. Its duties, as laid down by the enacting statute, were "to examine the Constitution of Japan, to investigate and deliberate on problems related thereto, and to report the results to the Cabinet and through the Cabinet to the National Diet." When the work of the Commission on the Constitution was approaching an end in 1964, there was informal talk about attempting an English translation of at least the Final Report. For a variety of reasons, this idea failed to materialize. However, there have been at least two excellent articles …

The "Right Of Silence" In Japanese Law, B. J. George, Jr.

Washington Law Review

The concept of a right of silence, particularly in the case of an accused person, was totally unknown in traditional Japanese law. Tokugawa procedure made no clear-cut distinction between civil and criminal or judicial and administrative proceedings; those embroiled in disputes were expected, indeed required, to make full revelation of everything which bore on the propriety of their activity. In what today would be a criminal proceeding, the defendant was expected to respond to questioning; and he could be tortured until he made the requisite statement. During the first decade or two of the Meiji period (1868-1912) some changes were …

A New Approach To Jurisdictional Analysis?, Anon

Washington Law Review

The Dirksen Amendment And The Article V Convention Process, Arthur Earl Bonfield

Michigan Law Review

This article will concentrate on the legal issues facing Congress in the current effort to call a constitutional convention. Because all of the previous amendments to the Constitution were proposed to the states by a two-thirds vote of both Houses of Congress, the issues raised in the present situation have never been resolved. The appropriate course of action for the national legislature is especially in doubt. An attempt will therefore be made here to focus on proper decision-making by Congress in resolving these constitutional issues. The role of the judiciary will be considered only incidentally, since, as will be seen, …

On Interpreting The Ethiopian Penal Code, Peter L. Strauss

Faculty Scholarship

The aim of this article is to set out and discuss some general principles of interpreting the Ethiopian Penal Code – that is to say, of using it. Even now, ten years after it came into effect, many people have difficulty in understanding and using the Penal Code in a straightforward way. It seems complex, and many of its fundamental conceptions are unfamiliar to Ethiopian lawyers. This article, discussing at length how the code is built, may help reduce its apparent complexity and thus facilitate its day-to-day application.
