Out In Left Field: Cuba's Post-Cold War Strikeout, Berta Esperanza Hernández Truyol Jan 1994

Out In Left Field: Cuba's Post-Cold War Strikeout, Berta Esperanza Hernández Truyol

Fordham International Law Journal

This Article studies the Cuban situation in four parts. First, it reviews whether Cuba actually fits basic expectations of "Third World country" status. As discussed in Part I, the figures of social and human development indicators, as well as economic development figures, reveal that Cuba does not match the definition neatly. Its health, education, and welfare figures rival those of industrial states. Economic development figures, however, paint a completely different picture. Economic considerations certainly permit labelling the island as a "developing country," particularly since the onset of the 1986 recession, as exacerbated by the demise of communism and Cuba's consequent …

The Developing Jurisprudence Of The Rights Of The Child, Cynthia Price Cohen Jan 1994

The Developing Jurisprudence Of The Rights Of The Child, Cynthia Price Cohen

St. Thomas Law Review

Worldwide concern for the well-being of children prompted the United Nations to declare 1979 as the International Year of the Child. This act set in motion a process that is not only affecting the way the world looks at children, but that could ultimately impact on the implementation of all United Nations human rights treaties. While the original intent of the International Year of the Child was simply to sensitize the world community to the state of the world's children, the actual outcome has had effects far beyond the mere compilation of data. The needs of children have become the …


Assisted Suicide: Giving Meaning To The Right To Die, Victoria L. Helms Jan 1994

Assisted Suicide: Giving Meaning To The Right To Die, Victoria L. Helms

St. Thomas Law Review

As Dr. Jack Kevorkian awaits prosecution in Wayne County, Michigan for his role in assisting in the death of Thomas J. Hyde, the Michigan Legislature continues to struggle in its search for a meaningful solution to the dilemma brought to a head by the so-called "Dr. Death." The question of assisted suicide is an emotional one, that will no longer sit on the back burner of America's lawmaking systems. Whether assisted suicide conforms to sound public policy in the United States has been the subject of vigorous debate and is a question creating turmoil in both law and medicine. It …

Achieving Environmental Justice: The Role Of Occupational Health, George Friedman-Jiménez, M.D. Jan 1994

Achieving Environmental Justice: The Role Of Occupational Health, George Friedman-Jiménez, M.D.

Fordham Urban Law Journal

The current rapidly growing interest in environmental justice is both timely and important. Occupational health is an integral part of assuring environmental justice. Concrete examples of environmental inequity leading directly to unequal health status can be found in occupational health literature and among the patients of occupational health clinics which serve populations that include low wage workers and workers of color. The toxic properties and health effects of many environmental contaminants were originally discovered in workplace settings where workers were repeatedly exposed to high doses of such contaminants. In the future, clinical occupational medicine, occupational epidemiology, occupational toxicology, and occupational …


Race, Gender, Age, And Disproportionate Impact: What Can We Do About The Failure To Protect The Most Vulnerable?, Samara F. Swanston Jan 1994

Race, Gender, Age, And Disproportionate Impact: What Can We Do About The Failure To Protect The Most Vulnerable?, Samara F. Swanston

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Hard economic times and social conditions are driving a reordering of environmental protection priorities that threatens to sacrifice the most vulnerable groups. Environmental regulatory agencies acknowledge that vulnerable populations face the greatest risk of harm from environmental insult and that these groups are not adequately protected. Although a risk-based prioritization of resources benefits the greatest number of people, such allocation would disadvantage minority communities, which contain disproportionate numbers of sensitive subgroups. Our regulatory bodies must therefore develop new strategies to adequately protect sensitive subgroups identified in minority communities. Part II of this Article looks at some of the considerations that …


Homelessness And Substance Abuse: Is Mandatory Treatment The Solution?, Melanie B. Abbott Jan 1994

Homelessness And Substance Abuse: Is Mandatory Treatment The Solution?, Melanie B. Abbott

Fordham Urban Law Journal

For the government to be successful in addressing homelessness, it must focus on the link between homelessness and substance abuse. In New York City and elsewhere, advocates are reluctant to publicize the connection between substance abuse and homelessness. Federal laws and programs that attempt to deal with homelessness, such as welfare, Social Security, federal housing laws, and the McKinney Act and other various federal acts do not provide a comprehensive approach to treatment of those who are both homeless and substance abusers. Because the Supreme Court has held that the Constitution does not provide a right to shelter, advocates have …


Suits By Public Hospitals To Recover Expenditures For The Treatment Of Disease, Injury And Disability Caused By Tobacco And Alcohol, Raymond E. Gangarosa, Frank J. Vandall, Brian M. Willis Jan 1994

Suits By Public Hospitals To Recover Expenditures For The Treatment Of Disease, Injury And Disability Caused By Tobacco And Alcohol, Raymond E. Gangarosa, Frank J. Vandall, Brian M. Willis

Fordham Urban Law Journal

Public hospitals are forced to absorb many of the costs of treating indigent patients whose alcohol and tobacco consumption has predictably lead to illness. This is contradictory to hospital's own interests in preventing disease, improving the efficiency of therapy and minimizing their financial losses. The goal of this article is to examine the possibility of reassigning these coasts through litigation. A cause of action should be available to public hospitals to recover their expenditures for the uncompensated medical treatment that is necessitated by alcohol and tobacco use. Such litigation in Mississippi and similar Florida legislation should serve as a model …

Agency Action, Finality And Geographical Nexus: Judicial Review Of Agency Compliance With Nepa's Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement Requirement After Lujan V. National Wildlife Federation, Matthew C. Porterfield Jan 1994

Agency Action, Finality And Geographical Nexus: Judicial Review Of Agency Compliance With Nepa's Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement Requirement After Lujan V. National Wildlife Federation, Matthew C. Porterfield

University of Richmond Law Review

In recent years, there has been an increasing recognition of the need to address the complex and interrelated impacts that result from human interaction with the environment. One of the most effective tools for evaluating these impacts has been the preparation of programmatic environmental impact statements (EISs) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). The status of programmatic EISs, however, has been called into question by the Supreme Court's decision in Lujan v. National Wildlife Federation, which has been interpreted by numerous commentators as heralding the end of "programmatic" environmental lawsuits. Even more significantly, Lujan has been …
