Growth And Form: Indian Tribes, Terrorism, And The Durability Of Environmental Law, William H. Rodgers, Jr.

Articles

My target audience is the body of extraordinary law students here at the Vermont Law School who will define the shape and direction of tomorrow's environmental law. My plan is to derive five virtues of significant achievement—genius, high-leveraging, symbolism, optimism, and courage—and to convince you that the Indian tribes of the United States are fortuitously blessed with these capacities for positive change.

I am obliged to defend my five virtues against the charge that they are "gray" virtues, mere tactics of opportunity open to use by the forces of hatred and destruction as freely as those of nurturing and protection. …

Emansipasi Wanita : Suatu Kajian Terhadap Pandangan Wanita Islam Di Universiti Teknologi Mara (Uitm), Kampus Seksyen 17, Shah Alam, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Bateriah Alias

Student Works (2000-2009)

Woman's emancipation refers to the western feminism and the movement of women's liberation with the objective of seeking an equal rights between women and men before law, in politic, education and social. History has witnessed the oppression against women by men either traditionally or under certain laws since the time of the ancient Greek. After centuries, women have evoked against this oppression and extremely criticized the patriarch system which has been said as the root of the problem. Nowadays, even though this movement has already succeeded in many of their demands, various new phenomenon aroused in western society out of …

The World Grain Economy To 2050: A Dynamic General Equilibrium, Two Sector Approach To Long-Term World-Level Macroeconomic Forecasting, Benn Eifert, Carlos Galvez, Naureen Kabir, Avinash Kaza, Jack Moore, Christine Pham

University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics

Though fifty years is a tremendous time horizon for the forecasting of any trend involving the complex interactions of billions of people and billions of hectares of intricate planetary ecosystems, the analytic methodology of economics is the most capable toolbox available for such forecasting. At the center of such a forecast are two complex functions, supply and demand, coevolving over time and codetermining prices, production, investment, labor flows, export patterns, and most other major variables.

Rates Of Reversible Error And The Risk Of Wrongful Execution, James S. Liebman

Faculty Scholarship

Innocent fatalities are a concern of all social activity with a capacity to kill. This is especially true when the social activity is the death penalty since an innocent person's execution is not simply a tragic collateral consequence of activity with a non-fatal objective. Instead, the taking of life is the goal of the enterprise, and the killing is the intended act of the state.

There is another difference between accidental fatalities in other social activities and those that occur when the capital system miscarries. Typically, the former fatalities are easy to spot and quantify; the latter are not. Precisely …

Teaching About Religion In Public Schools, Kent Greenawalt

Faculty Scholarship

Two of the twentieth century's most controversial Supreme Court decisions held that public schools could not sponsor devotional prayer and Bible reading as part of their educational program. Yet, whether to begin school with a few minutes of devotional practice matters far less than what schools teach about religion, one of the most nettlesome issues of church-state relations in a liberal democracy. This question has received comparatively little attention from constitutional lawyers, because the Supreme Court has declared that teaching about religion is acceptable and has not addressed challenges to programs educators have labeled in this way. Many citizens, of …

Ordered Liberty And The Homeland Security Mission, James E. Baker

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

This paper will start with a brief discussion of the terrorism threat because the threat remains predicate for any serious discussion of where we draw our legal lines. I will then suggest a legal model for looking at questions of homeland security called ordered liberty. The model is simple. First, given the nature of the threat, the executive must have broad and flexible authority to detect and respond to terrorism-–to provide for our physical security. Second, the sine qua non for such authority is meaningful oversight. Oversight means the considered application of constitutional structure, executive process, legal substance, and relevant …

Genetic Enhancement, Distributive Justice, And The Goals Of Medicine, Mark A. Hall

San Diego Law Review

In this brief Essay, I focus on chapter 4 of the book’s discussion of the distinction between treatment and enhancement.

This distinction is at the core of many of the most challenging problems of ethics and public policy raised by genetics. This is also the place where there appears to be disagreement or ambivalence among these authors

and where fault

lines appear in their otherwise remarkably united front.

The Ethics Of Genetic Intervention: Human Research And Blurred Species Boundaries, Rebecca Dresser

San Diego Law Review

From Chance to Choice: Genetics and Justice1

is a well-written and tightly argued analysis. This Essay addresses two topics meriting more attention than they received from these authors. First, this Essay considers in greater detail a topic the book briefly addresses—the human research necessary to support clinical use of genetic interventions. What appears as simply a step along the way to clinical benefits may actually present serious impediments. Second, this Essay expands on a point the authors mentioned only in passing. They noted that developments in

genetics are blurring traditional species boundaries. Blurred boundaries between humans and other species raise …

Violence, Video Games, And A Voice Of Reason: Judge Posner To The Defense Of Kids' Culture And The First Amendment, Clay Calvert

San Diego Law Review

"We are in the world of kids' popular culture. But it is not lightly to be suppressed."' So wrote Judge Richard A. Posner on behalf of a unanimous three judge panel for the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals in March 2001 in striking down, on First Amendment grounds, an Indianapolis ordinance that blocked minors' access to video games depicting violence. Judge Posner's erudite opinion could not have come at a more important time-a time when the entertainment industries in the United States seemingly are under government siege and when the media blame game is peaking. The judge's cogent reasoning and …

Ethnography And The Idealized Accounts Of Science In Law, David S. Caudill

San Diego Law Review

n Part I, I confirm the idealizations of science in law and their implications for legal scholarship and practice. In Part II, I describe the ethnographic method used by science studies scholars, with reference to my own ethnographic analysis of interviews with three neuroscientists. I conclude Part II by identifying various social aspects of science that comprise a complex picture of scientific activity. In Part ill, I discuss the implications of ethnomethodology for trial practice, including deposition analysis, Daubert-type hearings, cross-examination techniques, and drafting jury instructions. Part IV addresses anticipated criticisms of my arguments.
