Liberty Without Equality: The Property-Rights Connection In A Negative Citizenship Regime, David Abraham Jan 1996

Liberty Without Equality: The Property-Rights Connection In A Negative Citizenship Regime, David Abraham

Articles

Why, in comparison with other liberal capitalist democracies, is the social welfare state so poorly anchored in American law and public discourse? Surely American political and social history have contributed much to the weakness of our "social state." But law, too, has played a significant material, as well as ideological, role and has provided the terrain for much of our social development. This essay explores the particular contribution of the property-liberty nexus to the stunted development of positive liberty and social citizenship in the United States. It traces this connection from the natural rights and bourgeois Founders through several key …


Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote Jan 1996

Judicial Creation Of Norms In Japanese Labor Law: Activism In The Service Of — Stability?, Daniel H. Foote

Articles

This Article begins by examining the judiciary's role in employment litigation. Part II then considers the implications of this and related examples of judicial creation of norms in Japan. Plainly, in this context the stereotype of a passive judiciary with little significance for private parties is inaccurate. Yet do these cases truly reflect judicial "activism"? What is their significance with respect to the separation of powers debate? Even with regard to the sphere of private ordering, what judicial philosophy do they reflect? This Article then examines the impact that this judicially created set of employment norms has had, both on …

Neighbors In American Land Law, Stewart E. Sterk Jan 1987

Neighbors In American Land Law, Stewart E. Sterk

Articles

The article critiques the foundational principle of land law known as the "geometric-box allocation," which assumes landowners have absolute control over their property within defined boundaries. While this model provides clarity and facilitates private bargaining, the analysis argues that it often fails to account for externalities, social norms, and bilateral monopoly situations, leading to inefficiencies. The author challenges the assumption that private bargaining will always produce efficient results, particularly in low-transaction-cost scenarios, and highlights the limitations of using intent as a justification for cross-boundary allocations. The article ultimately suggests that land law doctrine reflects and reinforces both individualist and non-individualist …
