Historical Epistemology, Jesus’ Resurrection, And The Shroud Of Turin, Gary R. Habermas

Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary (1973-2015)

In contemporary studies on the Shroud of Turin, much attention, with good reason, has focused on the crucial roles contributed by sciences like physics, chemistry, and medical analyses. Doubtless, these and related inquiries have contributed more than any others in attempting to solve one of the greatest modern puzzles.

Here we will examine another avenue that is seldom pursued, but which offers some crucial insights for this subject: philosophy of history and its cognate, historical investigation. We will argue that well known principles in these disciplines can also assist us in arriving at some significant distinctions that are centrally relevant …

Hannah More And The Evangelical Influence On The English Novel, Karen Swallow Prior

Faculty Dissertations

Hannah More was a significant literary, political, and social figure of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Ample evidence exists that More's only novel, Coelebs in Search of a Wife (1808), played a significant role in increasing the popularity and acceptability of the genre of the novel. Yet, More's rightful place in the story of the "rise of the novel" has been largely overlooked in literary criticism today.

This dissertation examines the life, work, and influence of Hannah More, an Evangelical Anglican, feminist, and social reformer. Emphasis is placed on those aspects of her life that demonstrate More's unique …

Pledges, Parades, And Mandatory Payments, Leslie Gielow Jacobs

McGeorge School of Law Scholarly Articles

This Article examines the Supreme Court's treatment of compelled expression cases. It sets forth the speech restraint framework by describing the crucial determinations guiding judicial analysis. It then explains the current results, reasoning, and incoherence of the compelled expression cases. This Article isolates and evaluates the variables that the Court claims are significant to compelled expression analysis. It then adjusts the variables according to the free speech clause values evident in speech restraint analysis to create a coherent doctrine of compelled expression. This doctrine both places past cases within a consistent framework and provides a structure for evaluating future compelled …

Secured Transactions History: The Impact Of Textile Machinery On The Chattel Mortgage Acts Of The Northeast, George Lee Flint Jr

Faculty Articles

The northeastern states passed chattel mortgage statues in the 1830s to replace the rebuttable rule acknowledging third party rights to the collateral, which created litigation to enforce a nonpossessory secured transaction. The rebuttable rule presumed that debtor possession of the collateral was fraud, but also allowed the secured party to present rebuttal evidence of his good faith in the transaction. The rebuttable rule negatively affected the textile machinery industry, allowing third parties to collect over the original creditor. In an effort to maneuver around the rebuttable rule, machinery manufacturers turned to a host of legal remedies, but eventually decided on …

Introduction - Denver Journal Of International Law And Policy, Thomas E. Carbonneau

Faculty Scholarship

The reconciliation of national law with a transborder standard is at the heart of the European enterprise to create an integrated legal process. Such reconciliation is also necessary to establish a unified political community with common core values. The various cases that are analyzed in this issue address critical questions of law and policy, and demonstrate the court’s progress in elaborating a communitarian practice in the various subject areas.

In the cases that are studied, the ECJ rendered preliminary rulings on previously unresolved issues of Community law. The ECJ has the power under Article 177 ofthe EC Treaty to issue …

Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

Financial statements included in written business valuations frequently contain departures from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) or an other comprehensive basis of accounting (OCBOA) because the purpose of such financial statements is solely to assist in developing and presenting the business valuation of an entity. This Statement is being issued to exempt financial statements included in written business valuations from the applicability of Statement on Standards for Accounting and Review Services (SSARS) 1, Compilation and Review of Financial Statements (AICPA, Professional Standards, vol. 2, AR sec. 100), because users of these statements do not require that the statements be in …

Transnational Critical Race Scholarship: Transcending Ethnic And National Chauvinism In The Era Of Globalization, Ibrahim J. Gassama

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

Eric Yamamoto's article, Critical Race Praxis: Race Theory and Political Lawyering Practice in Post-Civil Rights America, brings a needed perspective to scholarship seeking to place domestic social justice struggles within the context of a broader and more complex mix of forces at play. While Yamamoto does not highlight a critical transnational perspective in this particular article, he writes from a perspective that presumes transnational analysis is essential in making sense of the socio-economic and political forces affecting our lives as individuals and members of multiple, intersecting communities. The local, the national, and the international are inextricably bound and present …

Lawyering For Social Change: What's A Lawyer To Do?, Kevin R. Johnson

Michigan Journal of Race and Law

This article analyzes two questions that are raised by Professor Yamamoto's provocative article. Part I argues that any significant transformation of the social structure of United States society is far more likely to occur through mass political movements than through litigation. Consequently, advocates of social change, especially those trained in law, should not expect too much reform from the courtrooms. They instead should consider how traditional legal action might complement and encourage-not replace-community activism and political involvement. Put simply, an exclusive focus on litigation will not accomplish fully the desired objective. Part II contends that attorneys' ethical duties to their …
