Focus On Fairness, Efficiency, And The Law: Response. An Integration Of Equity And Efficiency, Richard O. Zerbe Jr.

Washington Law Review

Swygert and Yanes, in an article in this issue of the Washington Law Review, suggest a means to achieve this integration. In this Article, I first discuss the shortcomings of the approach suggested by Swygert and Yanes. Next, I suggest a more practical approach for integrating efficiency and equity that relies on benefit cost analysis. Finally, I consider some of the cases to which Swygert and Yanes apply their analysis. The fundamental shortcoming of the Swygert and Yanes approach is that it offers little for deciding practical cases. The authors combine two abstract and heuristic proposals and quite naturally …

Against Common Sense: Why Title Vii Should. Protect Speakers Of Black English, Jill Gaulding

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

The speech of many black Americans is marked by phrases such as 'we be writin"' or "we don't have no problems." Because most listeners consider such "Black English" speech patterns incorrect, these speakers face significant disadvantages in the job market. But common sense suggests that there is nothing discriminatory about employers' negative reactions to Black English because it makes sense to allow employers to insist that employees use correct grammar.

This article argues against this common sense understanding of Black English as bad grammar. The author first analyzes the extent of the job market disadvantages faced by Black English speakers …

The Community-Based Management Of Fisheries In Atlantic Canada: A Legislative Proposal, Raymond Maccallum

Dalhousie Law Journal

The crises in Canada's fisheries demonstrate the failure of Canadian fisheries management practices to achieve their public policy objectives. The author proposes that a new fisheries management regime, based on principles of community-based management, should be implemented to better ensure the sustainability of both the fisheries and fishing communities. A draft bill is provided to establish a specific framework around which to discuss those values and interests that should be promoted and protected by legislation, and how legislation can be used to establish and nurture a new community-based management regime.

Bodies Of Law, Moira Mcconnell

Dalhousie Law Journal

"Don't judge a book by its cover" is a maxim most frequently recited to children by adults to explain the idea that one should not judge people on the basis of appearance. This maxim captures the gist of the topic explored in Alan Hyde's Bodies of Law. Bodies of Law seeks to expose the fact that we simultaneously view a person as an entity distinct from her or his physical manifestation while our understanding and response to a person is affected by our perceptions and judgments regarding their physical characteristics.

Being Female Can Be Fatal: An Examination Of India's Ban On Pre-Natal Gender Testing, Andrea Krugman

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines India's 1996 Pre-natal Diagnostic Techniques (Regulation and Prevention of Misuse) Act, which aims to address the severe gender imbalance caused by prenatal sex selection and female feticide. Despite the Act's intentions, its effectiveness is hindered by deep-rooted cultural preferences for male children, economic pressures, and insufficient enforcement mechanisms. The analysis highlights the need for broader societal changes, including education and economic empowerment for women, to effectively combat gender discrimination.
