Planning For The Future: Using Child Support Trusts To Prepare Both Father And Child For Life After Professional Sports, Thomas C. Quinlen Jan 2000

Planning For The Future: Using Child Support Trusts To Prepare Both Father And Child For Life After Professional Sports, Thomas C. Quinlen

Vanderbilt Journal of Entertainment & Technology Law

The issue of professional athletes siring children out of wedlock was first thrust into the national conscience in an article in Sports Illustrated in May 1998. The SI piece was followed by several newspaper articles in various cities around the country, but like most hot news topics, it was quickly forgotten as the nation moved on to more pressing issues. This Note aims to revisit this issue with an eye towards practical and legal resolution of this pervasive problem, suggesting ways that lawyers and agents can establish child support trusts to represent their clients' interests and provide the best result …

Introduction: Performing Latcrit, Robert S. Chang, Natasha Fuller Jan 2000

Introduction: Performing Latcrit, Robert S. Chang, Natasha Fuller

Faculty Articles

This introduction examines the four articles in this cluster on LatCrit praxis. The four articles can be seen as case studies that explore different aspects of LatCrit praxis. Pedro Malavet examines the role literature and the arts can play as a form of antisubordinationist practice. Nicholas Gunia focuses on Jamaican music as a particular site of antisubordinationist practice, showing us that resistance comes in many forms and that LatCrit practitioners must have a broad theory for social change that is not limited to legislatures, courtrooms, classrooms, and law reviews. Alfredo Mirande Gonzalez employs personal narrative to tell us how he …


Race, Reason And Representation, Tayyab Mahmud Jan 2000

Race, Reason And Representation, Tayyab Mahmud

Faculty Articles

This is a review essay based on Uday Singh Mehta, Liberalism and Empire: A study in Nineteenth-Century British Liberal Thought (Chicago: The University of Chicago Press 1999). It evaluates the entanglement of liberalism with colonialism to highlight many fundamental contradictions inherent in projects of modernity and the way universal claims are often bound by particularistic imperatives. Liberalism could reconcile its agenda of liberty and representation with colonial subjugation only by positing race as the grounds for eligibility to rights. With the project of neo-liberal restructuring of the world underway, it is useful to recall the disjunction between the theory and …


Hegemony, Coercion And Teeth Gritting Harmony: A Commentary On Law, Power And Culture In Franco’S Spain, Tayyab Mahmud, Ratna Kapur Jan 2000

Hegemony, Coercion And Teeth Gritting Harmony: A Commentary On Law, Power And Culture In Franco’S Spain, Tayyab Mahmud, Ratna Kapur

Faculty Articles

Co-authored with Ratna Kapur, this commentary engages the interrelationship of hegemony and coercion in legal regimes of the modern state. Against the backdrop of regulation of sexuality in fascist Spain, we posit a model of modern state power that draws upon the work of Gramsci, Althusser, and Foucault. It is argued that ideology is the velvet glove that encases the iron fist of coercion, and law always combines coercion and ideology by its very structure and operation. A bridge between critical race theory and queer theory is located in the concept of racing seen as the modern technology of power …


Restoration Affecting Native Resources: The Place Of Native Ecological Science, Catherine O'Neill Jan 2000

Restoration Affecting Native Resources: The Place Of Native Ecological Science, Catherine O'Neill

Faculty Articles

This article begins by noting that non-Native society—the dominant society in the United States—has often discounted Native expertise and denied a place for Native environmental managers. Part II catalogues the various forms that denigration and denial of Native ecological science have taken. Part III marks the historical antecedents of such efforts to deny Native knowledge and to downplay the role of Native peoples as environmental managers. It then identifies particular features of the approaches favored by non-Native environmental managers that likely work to exclude, devalue, or discriminate against Native science, with the intention of encouraging further work to locate and …


Ninth Amendment Adjudication: An Alternative To Substantive Due Process Analysis Of Personal Autonomy Rights, Mark Niles Jan 2000

Ninth Amendment Adjudication: An Alternative To Substantive Due Process Analysis Of Personal Autonomy Rights, Mark Niles

Faculty Articles

Notwithstanding decades of significant legal scholarship focusing on the Ninth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, a large portion of the practicing legal community, and even a substantial percentage of legal scholars, are unfamiliar with the provision. The primary reason for this phenomenon is the striking absence of an identifiable body of Ninth Amendment adjudication. In this Article, Mark Niles focuses on this phenomenon and endeavors to develop an interpretative theory of the amendment upon which an adjudicative role can be founded. In Part I of this Article, Niles outlines the traditional judicial treatment of the Ninth Amendment, or more precisely, …


Transforming Cultural Conflict In An Age Of Complexity, Michelle Lebaron Jan 2000

Transforming Cultural Conflict In An Age Of Complexity, Michelle Lebaron

All Faculty Publications

This article will survey several definitions of culture, arguing that the most useful approach is to define culture broadly and to recognize its significance to most or all conflicts. Some of the ways that culture affects conflicts will be outlined, accompanied by examples. These include: culture as a lens that both facilitates and blocks effective communication; culture and world view differences as the subject of conflicts; and conflicts related to identity and recognition as facets of cultural differences. Further discussed are Western models of third party intervention, inviting readers to examine the values and assumptions underlying them. Challenges inherent in …

Looking At Marriage, Naomi Cahn Jan 2000

Looking At Marriage, Naomi Cahn

Michigan Law Review

In a recent book (not the subject of this Review), highly successful and popular authors John Gottman and Nan Silver set out their seven effective principles for making a marriage last. The final suggestion is that spouses should "create shared meaning, an inner life together that is rich with symbols and family rituals and that honors the hopes of both partners." In a happy marriage, the couples not only provide support for each other, but also "build a sense of purpose into their lives together." Professor Gottman has developed these principles as a result of twenty years of research and …


Ending Male Privilege: Beyond The Reasonable Woman, Stephanie M. Wildman Jan 2000

Ending Male Privilege: Beyond The Reasonable Woman, Stephanie M. Wildman

Michigan Law Review

A Law of Her Own: The Reasonable Woman as a Measure of Man by Caroline A. Forell and Donna M. Matthews aspires to provide a solution for an enigmatic jurisprudential problem - the systemic failure of the legal order to recognize and to redress the injuries that women experience. Feminist scholars have agreed that, for women, the legal separation of public and private spheres often insulates from legal review behavior that harms women. But even in the so-called public sphere, women suffer harms that remain invisible and unnamed. The authors identify four legal arenas in which the "spectrum of violence …


Word Games, War Games, Diane H. Mazur Jan 2000

Word Games, War Games, Diane H. Mazur

Michigan Law Review

In 1993, the country's interest in the issue of military service by gay citizens escalated to a level that can only be described as a national obsession, and "obsession" is by no means too strong a term. The subject of gay servicemembers was debated within all three branches of government, all ranks of the military, and all walks of civilian life.1 The issue of military service by gay citizens became a line in the sand, a cultural standoff on issues as sensitive and disparate as sexuality, patriotism, civil rights, and civic obligation. Janet Halley2 returns to that time of obsession …

The Negotiation Of Executive Agreements For Environmental Remediation: Is The Interest-Based Method A Workable Model?, Darla Wynon Kite-Jackson Jan 2000

The Negotiation Of Executive Agreements For Environmental Remediation: Is The Interest-Based Method A Workable Model?, Darla Wynon Kite-Jackson

LLM Theses and Essays

Much of the recent literature on negotiation has concerned environmental negotiations. The environmental negotiations literature often discusses the negotiation of domestic environmental issues or the negotiation of multilateral/global environmental conventions. However, the literature on bilateral negotiations dealing with environmental issues, especially as it is related to mutual defense arrangements is scarcer. This thesis deals with this latter type of negotiations. This thesis explores whether interest-based negotiation techniques can be effectively used in resolving the environmental issues that are associated with base closures. It will do so by first describing and responding to some of the criticisms of the fundamental concepts …
