The Legal Ethics Of Radical Individualism, Thomas L. Shaffer

Journal Articles

Most of what American lawyers and law professors call legal ethics is not ethics. Legal ethics has come to be rules that appeal to sanction, and not the lawyer’s conscience. This Article analyzes the ethical quandary arising from modern ethics, and presents an assessment of the ethics of radical individualism in terms of the religious tradition’s influence on legal ethics.

The Guilds Of Law In Medieval Legal History: An Inquiry Into The Origins Of The Inns Of Court, George Makdisi

Cleveland State Law Review

Medieval England presents the student of legal history with a number of interesting peculiarities. Among these are the common law and the schools where it was taught, the Inns of Court. English law was the only native law in medieval Europe, functioning distinctly from both civil and canon law. It was judge-made, and followed the case-law method peculiar to it, distinct from the codification system of civil and canon law. Its schools, the Inns of Court, were, in Christendom, the only law schools of their kind that came out of the Middle Ages into modern times. These and other features …

Refusal Of Lifesaving Treatment For Minors, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

I feel very comfortable talking about human rights, civil rights, the role of individual privacy, autonomy, and dignity in making decisions about oneself. Yesterday's topics concerning adults and privacy, however, were much easier than today's, which deal with children. It's not difficult to argue for the right of competent adults, whether it be in Texas' or California,2 to make their own decisions. As much as we may or may not agree with their decisions, at least arguing that -competent individuals like Dax Cowart and Elizabeth Bouvia have a right to make their own decisions makes a lot of sense; the …

Directing The Development Of A University Centre Of Criminology, John Li. J. Edwards

Dalhousie Law Journal

The original sod out of which the University of Toronto's Centre of Criminology grew was a proposal that I drew up while teaching a course in criminology as part of the LL.B. curriculum in the Faculty of Law at Dalhousie University in 1958-59.1 The proposal reviewed the extent of criminological teaching and research in Canada, and drew particular attention to the lack of implementation of the recommendations of the Fauteux Committee - a committee established in 1956 by the Canadian federal government to study the country's penal system and to make recommendations for change and improvement. 2 In its report, …

Labor Relations In Parochial Schools: Should Lay Teachers Be Denied Protection Of The General Laws?, Gerald Sims

San Diego Law Review

This Comment examines the history of the National Labor Relations Act, focusing on the Supreme Court's construction of the Act in NLRB v. Catholic Bishop of Chicago, in which the Court held that religious organizations were not "employers" under the NLRA. The author argues that the effect of this holding was to deprive law parochial teachers of statutory protection of their right to engage in collective bargaining. The author further argues that Congress must act to redefine the term "employer." The author continues to examine the constitutional issues that would arise if Congress gave the NLRB statutory authority to assert …
