Marriage, Morals, And The Law: No-Fault Divorce And Moral Discourse, Carl E. Schneider Apr 1994

Marriage, Morals, And The Law: No-Fault Divorce And Moral Discourse, Carl E. Schneider

Articles

In this Essay, I want to reflect on no fault-divorce and the social attitudes that underlie it. In particular, I want to consider that reform in light of an article I wrote some years ago entitled Moral Discourse and the Transformation of American Family Law. There I argued that in recent years the language of American family law has changed notably: today family law issues are decreasingly discussed in the language of morality. In other words, legal institutions have decreasingly talked about those issues in moral terms. Rather, they have tended to avoid handling some moral issues altogether-often by …

Interdependence And Choice In Distributive Justice: The Welfare Conundrum, Lee Anne Fennell Jan 1994

Interdependence And Choice In Distributive Justice: The Welfare Conundrum, Lee Anne Fennell

Articles

This Article presents a theoretical model for analyzing welfare policy choices, a model that seeks both to explain the puzzling persistence of welfare in the face of widespread dissatisfaction with it, and to provide a reasoned basis for making more satisfactory policy choices. Drawing on game theory, the author postulates that the poor and the nonpoor are faced with a strategic dilemma as a result of their shared stake in the alleviation of poverty. The author's analysis of this dilemma suggests that the nonpoor react rationally by providing assistance to the poor, but that they are dissatisfied with this outcome …

Of Richard Epstein And Other Radical Feminists, Mary Anne Case Jan 1994

Of Richard Epstein And Other Radical Feminists, Mary Anne Case

Articles

My goal in this discussion is to persuade all members of the Federalist Society that they are or should be feminists. I shall pursue this goal in two ways: first by setting forth an expansive definition of feminist jurisprudence; secondly by showing that anyone who combines the two commitments Richard Epstein urges on feminists-commitments to the descriptive message of sociobiology and to the normative message of libertarianism-must inevitably be, not merely a feminist, but a very radical feminist indeed. In short, feminism is for everyone, especially for Richard Epstein.

Epstein On His Own Grounds, Richard H. Mcadams Jan 1994

Epstein On His Own Grounds, Richard H. Mcadams

Articles

Forbidden Grounds fails to follow through on its own terms. Epstein invokes Thomas Hobbes but never considers the Hobbesian argument for Title VII; employs economic analysis without disclosing its dependence on controversial empirical assumptions; and makes empirical claims, particularly about social norms, without applying the standards of criticism to supporting evidence that he applies to contrary evidence.

The Damaging Impact Of The Eastman Kodak Precedent Upon Product Competition: Antitrust Law In Need Of Correction, Daniel J. Gifford Jan 1994

The Damaging Impact Of The Eastman Kodak Precedent Upon Product Competition: Antitrust Law In Need Of Correction, Daniel J. Gifford

Articles

In the dynamic markets of the present day, competition is the driving force behind the widespread and pervasive development of new products and new product capabilities. Innovative activity, which is especially manifest in the high-technology sectors, contributes significantly to national economic well-being. 1 Yet the courts, the bar, and most legal scholars have given inadequate attention to the critical role that antitrust rules can play in encouraging or stifling innovative activity. 2 Rather, a good deal of the traditional antitrust literature has focused narrowly upon price and output in relatively static market settings, and the newer strategic behavior branch of …


Interpersonal Distrust In The Modified Rawlsian Society, Daniel J. Gifford Jan 1994

Interpersonal Distrust In The Modified Rawlsian Society, Daniel J. Gifford

Articles

JOHN RAWLS, the author of the widely acclaimed A Theory of Justice, 1 has modified and supplemented his theory of the just society in his new book Political Liberalism. Rawls's theory of justice, which he calls "justice as fairness," continues to consist essentially of two principles: a liberty principle under which each person is entitled to the maximum possible liberty consistent with equal liberty for others, and a difference principle, under which social and economic inequalities are justified only to the extent that they contribute to raising the absolute level of well being of the least advantaged class over the …
