The Taming Of The Shrew: The Liberal Attempt To Mainstream Radical Feminist Theory, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article critically examines the opposing views of Cass Sunstein and Catharine MacKinnon on pornography and its legal implications, highlighting their divergent definitions and approaches. Sunstein advocates for a narrow, violence-focused antipornography legislation, while MacKinnon pushes for a broader definition that encompasses gender subordination. The analysis reveals how Sunstein's critique of MacKinnon unintentionally weakens feminist challenges to masculinism by separating sexuality from power dynamics. MacKinnon's theory, rooted in a premodern Christian view of sexuality, posits that pornography constructs women as objects, reinforcing gender inequality. The article underscores the tension between legal reform and the deeper structural changes needed to address …

The "Colored Barrister": The Short Life And Tragic Death Of James Robinson Johnston, 1876-1915, Barry Cahill

Dalhousie Law Journal

The mortal remains of James Robinson Johnston, Nova Scotia's first Black lawyer, lie buried in the family plot at Camp Hill Cemetery in Halifax. The gravestone epigraphy records that he was a Good Templar, a Freemason and an Oddfellow; his Dalhousie University degrees (one of them inaccurately); and the fact that he died a mere nine days short of his thirty-ninth birthday. "Gone but not forgotten" reads the epitaph, much less ironically now - in view of the fact that the recently established Chair in Black Canadian Studies at his alma mater has been named in Johnston's honour-than it ever …

A Pragmatic Model Of Law, Daniel C.K. Chow

Washington Law Review

While all of us are pragmatic in an informal or colloquial sense in many instances in daily life, pragmatism as applied to law has a deeper, jurisprudential sense The author suggests that modern legal pragmatism presents a model of law that avoids the serious philosophical errors of the traditional model of law, which is based upon assumptions that are untenable in light of fundamental developments in twentieth century thought. The traditional model justifies law by grounding law in eternal, immutable and transcendental foundations. All modern legal pragmatists reject the notion that transcendental foundations sustain law. Modern legal pragmatism arose in …

Protecting Donar Privacy In Aids Related Blood Bank Litigation—Doe V. Puget Sound Blood Center, 117 Wash. 2d 772, 819 P.2d 370 (1991), Anne Marie Logerfo

Washington Law Review

One controversial issue in blood bank AIDS litigation is whether courts should permit infected plaintiffs to conduct discovery of information about the blood donor who contributed the contaminated blood. Many courts have taken a reasonable middle ground by allowing limited discovery of a blood donor provided that the donor's identity remains confidential. In a recent case, the Washington Supreme Court provided no such limitation on blood donor discovery. This Note argues that the court's decision infringes on the significant privacy interests of the blood donor and violates the public's interest in an adequate blood supply while providing little or no …

International Regulatory Harmonization: A New Era In Prescription Drug Approval, David W. Jordan

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Critics of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have asserted that the agency's process of reviewing new drugs has long been laden with inefficiency and waste and, as a result, new drugs are not made available to consumers on a timely basis. This Note considers the veracity of this claim by examining the history of prescription drug regulation in the United States and the current procedure by which new drugs are reviewed. This Note also addresses the limited extent to which the FDA has interacted with its foreign counterparts in assessing the safety and efficacy of new drugs and the …

Sex Selection: Regulating Technology Enabling The Predetermination Of A Child's Gender, Owen D. Jones

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

The debate over the prohibition of sex (or gender) selection (also known as "preselection" or "predetermination"), has focused almost exclusively on the context of aborting a "wrong-sex" fetus after a fetal gender-identification procedure. Despite the fact that sex selection abortions represent only a small subset of sex selection procedures, attitudes toward the former are driving general policy approaches to the latter. However, the issues are analytically distinct, and only during the former infancy of the pre-conceptive (and non-abortive post-conceptive) technology for sex selection were members on both sides of the debate afforded the economy of using one logic to support …

Future Fall-Out From The Genetic Revolution, Robert A. Bohrer

Faculty Scholarship

It is argued that the genetic engineering revolution now under way is fundamentally different from other industrial revolutions in that humans are developing the technological power to change themselves. This article begins with an overview of the technology involved, discusses the Human Genome Initiative (HGI) programme and gene therapy research, and then uses several possible future scenarios to discuss potential legal and ethical issues.

Subject: Object, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article explores the concept of objectivity in legal theory, examining its complexity and the various ways it is defined and applied. It critiques the left's tendency to associate objectivity with liberalism and masculinity, while highlighting the right's defense of subjectivity.
