Heidegger And The Theory Of Adjudication, Brian Leiter
Twenty Years Of Undergraduate Libraries: Whence And Whither?, Mark Watson, Jody Bales Foote, Roland Person
Twenty Years Of Undergraduate Libraries: Whence And Whither?, Mark Watson, Jody Bales Foote, Roland Person
Articles
Undergraduate libraries as part of university library systems have existed since 1949, but there is little statistical data prior to 1971. This study examines statistics reported since that time, supplemented with electronic mail surveying, to show how such libraries have responded to the changing needs of an undergraduate population. The results show that change, and rapid response to external forces, are hallmarks of undergraduate libraries past and present.

What About The Children? Are Family Lawyers The Same (Ethically) As Criminal Lawyers? A Morality Play, Robert H. Aronson
What About The Children? Are Family Lawyers The Same (Ethically) As Criminal Lawyers? A Morality Play, Robert H. Aronson
Articles
A fictional account of a lawyer, representing a woman in a divorce case, who learns from her client that her live-in boyfriend has hit her and her five-year-old daughter. Is her ethical duty to protect the child greater than her responsibility to maintain the attorney-client privilege. She discusses the matter with two evidence professors in search of a solution.
Meaning In The Life Of The Lawyer, James Boyd White
Meaning In The Life Of The Lawyer, James Boyd White
Articles
First let me say what a pleasure it is to be here on such an occasion. Dean Kronman is an old and valued friend, and I am very glad to be able to visit your school, of which I have heard many good things. In the remarks that follow I shall respond to Dean Kronman's eloquent and elegiac account of "civility" in our culture, and in the law, not so much by marking agreement or disagreement as by offering a few loosely connected reflections on the topics he raises.
The 'Right To Die': On Drawing (And Erasing) Lines, Yale Kamisar
The 'Right To Die': On Drawing (And Erasing) Lines, Yale Kamisar
Articles
Until this year, no state or federal appellate court had ever held that there was a right to assisted suicide no matter how narrow the circumstances or stringent the conditions. In 1996, however, within the span of a single month, two federal courts of appeals so held; in an 8-3 majority of the Ninth Circuit (sitting en banc) in Compassion in Dying v. Washington and a three-judge panel of the Second Circuit in Quill v. Vacco. What heartened proponents of a right to physician-assisted suicide even more, and pleased those resistant to the idea even less, was that the two …
An Epilogue To The Age Of Pound, Thomas A. Green
An Epilogue To The Age Of Pound, Thomas A. Green
Articles
Doubts about the reality of criminal offenders' autonomy have sometimes played a role in the movement to abolish, or greatly reduce the reach of, the sanction of capital punishment.
Theorists' Belief: A Comment On The Moral Tradition Of American Constitutionalism, Jospeh Vining
Theorists' Belief: A Comment On The Moral Tradition Of American Constitutionalism, Jospeh Vining
Articles
The Moral Tradition of American Constitutionalism is one of those rare works that leads us to face, at the center of law and legal thought, the largest questions about human life and human purpose. There is a special reader's shudder, a certain gestural shift in the chair, reserved for that moment of realizing where one is being led-not to the edge, but to the center, so that the questions become insistent, and whatever we and others say and do in the face of them becomes our response to them.

Training Teachers Of Distant Learners, Morton Isaacs
Training Teachers Of Distant Learners, Morton Isaacs
Articles
Distance Education increasingly is being utilized as an instructional method within the college environment. It has several advantages, among which are that it enables course participation by *Handicapped persons whose problems of speech, hearing, or movement may make spontaneous interaction with others difficult; *Geographically or temporally isolated persons; *Those whose language differs from that of the instructor; *Instructors who have special knowledge that would otherwise be impractical to teach due to the scattered locations of those interested in the material. However, this method requires instructors to adjust to many factors that have little relevance in traditional teaching methods: *The absence …

The Rhythms Of Hope And Disappointment In The Language Of Judging (St. John's University School Of Law: Rededication Symposia), James Boyd White
The Rhythms Of Hope And Disappointment In The Language Of Judging (St. John's University School Of Law: Rededication Symposia), James Boyd White
Articles
I want to talk today about a certain aspect or dimension of the language of judging. From one point of view the quality I mean can be seen as a kind of idealism inherent in legal language; from another, as a kind of fundamental hypocrisy; from still another, as a simultaneously tragic and comic element in legal life.
Tax Transitions, Opportunistic Retroactivity, And The Benefits Of Government Precommitment, Kyle D. Logue
Tax Transitions, Opportunistic Retroactivity, And The Benefits Of Government Precommitment, Kyle D. Logue
Articles
What if the current federal income tax laws were repealed and replaced with a simple flat tax? What if the entire Internal Revenue Code (with its graduated rates and countless deductions, exclusions, and credits) were scuttled in favor of a broad-based consumption tax? Only a few years ago, such proposals would have seemed radical and extremely unlikely to be adopted. But times are changing. Calls for a drastic overhaul of the Internal Revenue Code have become commonplace, even at the highest levels in the tax-policy community. In addition, proposals that would replace the income tax with a flat-rate broad-based consumption …
Bouquets For Jerry Israel, Yale Kamisar
Bouquets For Jerry Israel, Yale Kamisar
Articles
As it turned out, of those asked to write a few words for an issue of the Michigan Law Review honoring Jerry Israel, I was the last to do so. And when I submitted my brief contribution to the Law Review I took the liberty of reading what the four others who paid tribute to Jerry had written. As a result, I feel like the fifth and last speaker at a banquet who listens to others say much of what he had planned to say.
Why Hard Cases Make Good (Clinical) Law, Paul D. Reingold
Why Hard Cases Make Good (Clinical) Law, Paul D. Reingold
Articles
In 1992, when the University of California's Hastings College of Law decided to offer a live-client clinic for the first time, its newly hired director had to make several decisions about what form the program should take.1 The first question for the director was whether the clinic should be a single-issue specialty clinic or a general clinic that would represent clients across several areas of the law. The second question, and the one that will be the focus of this essay, was whether the program should restrict its caseload to "easy" routine cases or also accept non-routine, less controllable litigation. …
Death And Transfiguration: The Myth That The U.C.C. Killed "Property", Jeanne L. Schroeder
Death And Transfiguration: The Myth That The U.C.C. Killed "Property", Jeanne L. Schroeder
Articles
The article examines the evolution of property concepts in legal frameworks, particularly focusing on the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.) and its treatment of title in sales transactions. It argues that while the U.C.C. attempted to shift from traditional notions of property as a unitary right to a more process-oriented approach, it did not fully abandon the underlying imagery of property as a tangible, identifiable object. The analysis critiques the common law's emphasis on title and explores the idea that property should be viewed as a legal relation among subjects rather than a fixed, physical entity. The article proposes a reinterpretation …
The Original Constitution And Our Origins, John O. Mcginnis
The Original Constitution And Our Origins, John O. Mcginnis
Articles
The question why we should be bound by the original Constitution often is framed as why we should be guided by the dead hand of the past. The notion that this venerable document should be viewed as a possibly unfortunate constraint on our present potential as a society contains an implicit premise about man in history. According to this view, it is open to man to make his history in each generation through some collective cultural process. Given such a premise, it seems plausible to believe that each generation should enjoy the opportunity to decide anew whether to submit to …
The Once And Future Property-Based Vision Of The First Amendment, John O. Mcginnis
The Once And Future Property-Based Vision Of The First Amendment, John O. Mcginnis
Articles
The growth of the information superhighway depends not only on technological developments, but also on our society's commitment to the free flow of information. Paradoxically, however, as the digital revolution in telecommunications is bringing the information superhighway into sharp focus, the justifications for contemporary First Amendment jurisprudence are becoming blurred.
Art Speech, Marci A. Hamilton
Art Speech, Marci A. Hamilton
Articles
Although many scholars have been in favor of providing first amendment protection for art, no one has offered a justification for its constitutional protection suited to art's singular capacities. Rather, commentators and courts have been inclined to place art under the rubric of general speech, which limits protection to ideas and content. Professor Hamilton argues that art offers significantly more than its content and deserves first amendment protection tailored to its particular potential. Art enables individuals to experience unfamiliar worlds and thereby to gain new perspectives on the prevailing status quo, including the government's. It performs this function without exposing …

Chix Nix Bundle-O-Stix: A Feminist Critique Of The Disaggregation Of Property, Jeanne L. Schroeder
Chix Nix Bundle-O-Stix: A Feminist Critique Of The Disaggregation Of Property, Jeanne L. Schroeder
Articles
Jeanne Schroeder's article critiques the traditional "bundle of sticks" metaphor of property theory, arguing that it erodes property's unity and essence. She integrates insights from Hegel and Lacan to propose a more cohesive understanding of property, emphasizing its role in mediating human interactions and freedom. Schroeder challenges gendered power dynamics in property theory and advocates for a feminist reimagining of property that transcends outdated metaphors.
