Images Of A Free Press: The Costs Of An Autonomous Press, Lee C. Bollinger Oct 1992

Images Of A Free Press: The Costs Of An Autonomous Press, Lee C. Bollinger

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

In Images of Free Press, 1991 University of Chicago Press, Dean Lee C. Bolinger, presents what Floyd Abrams has called a "subtley reasoned and powerfully argued attack on much of the received wisdom about First Amendment theory and law." In this excert, Bollinger considers the principle of press autonomy initiated by the country's seminal libel case, New York Times v. Sullivan. The case was brought by L. B. Sullivan, an elected commissioner of Montgomer, Alabama, who while unnamed in the challenged articles, said his reputation had been damaged by published errors. The Court found for the New York Times. Bollinger …


Consideration And Estoppel: Problem And Panacea, Bruce Macdougall Oct 1992

Consideration And Estoppel: Problem And Panacea, Bruce Macdougall

Dalhousie Law Journal

In his book, The History of the Common Law of Contract, A.W.B. Simpson demonstrates that consideration originally seems to have meant the "matter of inducement" - the "why" of entering a promise.' He writes: "The essence of the doctrine of consideration, then, is the adoption by the common law of the idea that the legal effect of a promise should depend upon the factor or factors which motivated the promise. To decide whether a promise to do X is binding, you need to know why the promise was made."2 In modem terms, according to Simpson, a promise which lacks any …

The "New" Law Of The Sea And The Law Of Armed Conflict At Sea, Horace B. Robertson Jr. Oct 1992

The "New" Law Of The Sea And The Law Of Armed Conflict At Sea, Horace B. Robertson Jr.

Newport Papers

The 1982 United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea establishes a regime for the oceans that includes a number of "zones" in addition to the traditional divisions of internal waters, territorial sea, and high seas. Although explicitly applicable only in peacetime, these new zones have a spillover effect on the law of naval warfare, particularly in the relationships between belligerents and neutral States.

A Response To Mohan Limaye, Barbara Couture

Department of English: Faculty Publications

Mohan Limaye presents two important concerns in his insightful response to my article [“Categorizing Professional Discourse: Engineering, Administrative, and Technical/Professional Writing,” Journal of Business and Technical Communication 6:1 (January 1992), pp. 5–37]. I wish to comment on these points and also to submit a correction to the text of the article.

Perception/Action: An Holistic Approach, John M. Flach Oct 1992

Perception/Action: An Holistic Approach, John M. Flach

Psychology Faculty Publications

A general systems approach is taken to studying the emergent properties of the human perception/action system. Two task domains, the control of locomotion and the recognition of objects, are used to study human performance. The locomotion task involves the control of altitude. Experiments are described that will manipulate the type of texture, the speed of forward motion, and altitude. A general hypothesis is presented that performance in the altitude control task is a function of the signal-to-noise ratio within the flow field--where signal refers to optical activity resulting from change of altitude and noise refers to optical activity resulting from …

Deconstructing Los Angeles Or A Secret Fax From Magritte Regarding Postliterate Legal Reasoning: A Critique Of Legal Education, C. Garrison Lepow Oct 1992

Deconstructing Los Angeles Or A Secret Fax From Magritte Regarding Postliterate Legal Reasoning: A Critique Of Legal Education, C. Garrison Lepow

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Article asks readers to imagine the shapes and colors of legal issues; it examines how people communicate and develop ideas through moving, metamorphosing images, especially computer graphics, and why methodology affects the eventual product of thought. Like dance, legal issues are described better through action than through words. Therefore, this Article challenges the principles of verbal reasoning upon which our legal system is based.


Causation In Fact In Omission Cases, David A. Fischer Oct 1992

Causation In Fact In Omission Cases, David A. Fischer

Faculty Publications

This article analyzes the difficulties involved in attributing cause in fact in omission cases, and suggests possible resolutions. Part II discusses the basic concept of causation, and the distinction between acts and omissions. Part III discusses the particular problems that arise in applying causation principles in omission cases. Part IV then analyzes these problems from both corrective justice and economic analysis perspectives. Finally, the article suggests an approach for solving these complex issues.

Critical Literacy And Postcolonial Praxis: A Freirian Perspective, Peter Mclaren Oct 1992

Critical Literacy And Postcolonial Praxis: A Freirian Perspective, Peter Mclaren

Education Faculty Articles and Research

"This essay examines the relationship among language, experience, and historical agency. It does so in the context of recent work in critical literacy and critical pedagogy. My discussion takes its bearings from the work of Brazilian educator Paulo Freire, described in a recent interview with Carlos Alberto Torres as "the prime 'animateur' for pedagogical innovation and change in the second half of this century" (12). In part this essay stands as a poststructuralist and postcolonialist rereading of Freire that, while to a certain extent "reinventing" his work in light of perspectives selectively culled from contemporary social theory, attempts to remain …

Participation Without Representation: The Meaning Of The Right To Vote After Presley V. Etowah County Commission, 112 S. Ct. 820 (1992), Nancy C. Zaragoza Oct 1992

Participation Without Representation: The Meaning Of The Right To Vote After Presley V. Etowah County Commission, 112 S. Ct. 820 (1992), Nancy C. Zaragoza

Washington Law Review

Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act requires governing entities implementing any new practices "with respect to voting" to first permit such changes to be scrutinized for discriminatory effects. In Presley v. Etowah County Commission, the United States Supreme Court held that a county government's restructuring of power among commissioners did not require scrutiny because the restructuring did not constitute a change with respect to voting. This Note examines Presley and concludes that the Court's decision ignored precedent, created an unreasonable test and misapplied the test. To ensure effective enforcement of the Voting Rights Act, the Court should adopt a …


State-Selective Capture In Collisions Of Protons With Noble Gases, Michael Schulz, D. M. Blankenship, S. W. Bross, A. D. Gaus, Timothy Gay, W. T. Htwe, John T. Park, Jerry Peacher Oct 1992

State-Selective Capture In Collisions Of Protons With Noble Gases, Michael Schulz, D. M. Blankenship, S. W. Bross, A. D. Gaus, Timothy Gay, W. T. Htwe, John T. Park, Jerry Peacher

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

We have measured coincidences between neutral H atoms and Lyman-α photons for collisions between 50-keV protons and noble gases as a function of the projectile scattering angle. The coincidences are dominated by capture to the 2p state of the projectile. While the total cross sections depend strongly on the target, the shape of the angular distribution of the differential cross sections was found to depend only weakly on that parameter. The data indicate that electrons are captured predominantly from the outermost shell of the target atom for the collision systems studied here.
