Critical Dialogue And Regulation: Learning From Engineering Mistakes, Robert Eli Rosen

Transportation Law Journal

Effective regulation requires knowledge. New forms of regulation, sometimes called "co-regulation," propose promoting learning and continual improvement in the regulated. In particular, inducing experimentalism has been named as a regulator's task.

This Article argues that regulators also need to become adept in critical dialogue. In the regulatory process, the critique of the rationality of extant techniques and practices can be an engine to advance public interests. Such critical thinking is attentive to false objectifications and the limitations of truth-claims. The examples in this Article demonstrate that regulatory goals can be advanced when regulators induce critical thinking. Both the regulated and …

The Legal Consequences Of Climate Change And The Durability Of U.S. Forest Service Sky Area Permits And Water Rights, Kiefer Armitage Stenseng

Water Law Review

Water, an already scarce and valuable resource in the arid western United States, will only become more important as competing demands for water increase and water availability decreases. Lower precipitation driven by climate change is likely to worsen in the coming decades. The lasting impact of climate change can also manifest itself legally. Thus, the law operates to balance conflicting uses of water (and the associated rights) between public and private entities.

Differing views on the nature of property rights, particularly the nature of private nights in public resources, become determinative of how public and private interests should be balanced. …

Tailoring Public Health Policies, Govind Persad

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

In an effort to contain the spread of COVID-19, many states and countries have adopted public health restrictions on activities previously considered commonplace: crossing state borders, eating indoors, gathering together, and even leaving one's home. These policies often focus on specific activities or groups, rather than imposing the same limits across the board. In this Article, I consider the law and ethics of these policies, which I call tailored policies.In Part II, I identify two types of tailored policies: activity-based and group-based. Activity-based restrictions respond to differences in the risks and benefits of specific activities, such as walking outdoors and …

Preventing Wind Waste, K.K. Duvivier

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

The United States has vast offshore wind resources—nearly double the total electricity consumption of the country—ideally located in close proximity to the largest population centers. This abundance has remained stubbornly untapped for over a decade, without a single commercial scale wind project built in federal waters as of early 2021. In contrast to obstruction by the Trump administration, President Biden, in his first days in office, singled out offshore wind development as one of his priorities for tackling the climate crisis. As a result, the United States may soon see an offshore wind rush. Onshore, the United States is a …

True Crime And Danger Narratives: Reflections On Stories Of Violece, Race, And (In)Justice, Lindsey Webb

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

In the United States, white people have long told both overt and veiled narratives of the purported danger and criminality of people of color. Sometimes known as ‘danger narratives,’ these gruesome accounts often depict the kidnapping, assault, and murder of white women at the hands of men of color. These narratives have been used to promote and justify enslavement, lynching, mass incarceration, and a host of other methods and institutions of white supremacy and racial control.

While white people have been creating and consuming danger narratives, they have also been telling other stories about crime. Like danger narratives, these stories, …

Enjoyed By White Citizens, Nancy Leong

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

Whiteness is largely invisible in American law. The United States Constitution never mentions white people. Indeed, the entirety of constitutional and statutory law, at both the federal and state level, includes only two antidiscrimination statutes that refer explicitly to white people. These Reconstruction-era statutes—42 U.S.C § 1981 and § 1982—declare that all people shall have the “same right” regarding contracts and property as “enjoyed by white citizens.”

This Article argues that the unique visibility of whiteness in § 1981 and § 1982 presents an opportunity. The plain language of these statutes exposes whiteness and requires explicit analysis of the contract …

Media Framing In The Centennial Olympic Park Bombing: How Media Coverage Of Terrorism Shifts When A Suspect Is Revealed, Easton Bush, Kareem El Damanhoury

DU Undergraduate Research Journal Archive

Terrorist attacks often dominate news cycles as reporters seek to interpret the attack through their own desired framing tools. Since “humans are predisposed to attend to negative and threatening information” (Sui et al., 2017), news coverage of terrorist attacks receive a lot of attention thus, how the attack is framed can manipulate the narrative portrayed to the public. This study utilized the Nexus database to examine framing techniques used by a local and an international newspaper in reporting on the Atlanta Centennial Olympic Park bombings both before and after a subject was identified by the FBI. This paper explores how …

Developing Effective Intervention: A Case Study Of Genocidal Moments In Srebrenica And Kosovo, Caleb Bryan

DU Undergraduate Research Journal Archive

Despite numerous treaties and international agreements aimed at stopping genocide, genocidal mass killings continue to take place within the current international system. In order to better understand how to best combat genocide, scholars have developed two main approaches: intervention and prevention. The interventionist approach argues genocide can be stopped in its tracks through use of military force and targeted diplomacy, while the preventionist approach argues pre-emptive action is needed to truly stop genocide. Both approaches, however, have relied too heavily on hypothetical analysis of how past genocides could have turned out differently given certain factors. This study instead aims to …
