Why Doesn’T She Leave? The Collision Of First Amendment Rights And Effective Court Remedies For Victims Of Domestic Violence, Laurie S. Kohn Jan 2001

Why Doesn’T She Leave? The Collision Of First Amendment Rights And Effective Court Remedies For Victims Of Domestic Violence, Laurie S. Kohn

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

This Article examines the potential constitutional barriers to the issuance of protection orders that restrict the speech of batterers in domestic violence cases. Focusing on threats by batterers to divulge information related to the victim’s HIV or immigration status and sexual orientation, this Article considers the court’s authority to protect victims as they try to escape abuse despite their fear of the dissemination of this confidential, truthful information . After examining the possible barriers to such restrictions under relevant First Amendment doctrine, the Article concludes that the orders are not only normatively important, but are likely to be constitutionally sound …

Intramolecular (Electron) Delocalization Between Aromatic Donors And Their Tethered Cation–Radicals. Application Of Electrochemical And Structural Probes, Duoli Sun, Sergey V. Lindeman, Rajendra Rathore, Jay K. Kochi

Chemistry Faculty Research and Publications

To study the mechanism of electronic transduction along (poly)phenylene chains, a series of aromatic donors with general formula D–B–D has been synthesized [where D = 2,5-dimethoxy-4-methylphenyl donor and B = (poly)phenylene bridge]; and the corresponding cation–radical salts D–B–D+˙ SbCl6− have been isolated for X-ray crystallographic analyses. The magnitude of the electronic interaction between the D and D+˙ moieties through the various B bridges has been measured (i) as the difference between the first and the second oxidation potentials of D–B–D donors and (ii) as the structural changes induced in neutral D by the presence …

Transnational Civil Society Dialogues, Steve Charnovitz, Francesca Bignami

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

Among the most interesting features of the New Transatlantic Agenda are the initiatives that are designed to link private actors and enable them to influence official policy making. Called "building bridges across the Atlantic" or "people-to-people links," these initiatives are intended to generate broad-based support for intergovernmental cooperation in trade liberalization, deregulation, immigration, justice, and a host of other areas (Wayne 1998; Krenzler 1998). This chapter surveys the efforts to institutionalize transatlantic civil society dialogue and offers suggestions on how the undertaking can be improved.

Constitutional Circularity, Michael B. Abramowicz Jan 2001

Constitutional Circularity, Michael B. Abramowicz

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

In supporting the invocation of stare decisis in constitutional cases, the Supreme Court has maintained that its decisions affect how the people conceptualize the government and their rights. Such an argument, which prioritizes contemporary understands of the Constitution over both the intentions of Framers and the nuances of doctrine, suggests that constitutional decisions may affect the meaning of the Constitution itself. In this Article, Professor Abramowicz offers a positive account demonstrating that the Court has used this type of argument, which he dubs “constitutional circularity,” and provides a normative critique. The positive account is relevant not only because it identifies …

West Virginia Children's Perceptions Of Guns And Violence : Examining Rural/Urban Differences Using The Attitudes Towards Guns And Violence Questionnair (Agvq), Randal Brooks Staats Jan 2001

West Virginia Children's Perceptions Of Guns And Violence : Examining Rural/Urban Differences Using The Attitudes Towards Guns And Violence Questionnair (Agvq), Randal Brooks Staats

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

With the recent acts of violence that students have committed while at school, the media, the public, and researchers have investigated why students are displaying these aggressive and violent behaviors. Why are children displaying these acts of violence (e.g., television, video games, lack of family support, etc.)? With everyone pointing a finger as to why children are displaying these acts of violence, a new measure called the Attitudes Towards Guns and Violence Questionnaire (AGVQ) was developed to determine a student's perceptions towards guns and violence. The purpose of this study was to examine whether a significant difference could be found …

Designing A Combined Reporting Regime For A State Corporate Income Tax: A Case Study Of Louisiana, Richard Pomp, Michael J. Mcintyre, Paull Mines Jan 2001

Designing A Combined Reporting Regime For A State Corporate Income Tax: A Case Study Of Louisiana, Richard Pomp, Michael J. Mcintyre, Paull Mines

Faculty Articles and Papers

This article presents a plan for revitalizing the Louisiana corporate income tax through the adoption of a combined reporting regime. Our plan would require affiliated companies engaged in a unitary business in the State to pay their Louisiana income tax based on an apportioned share of their combined income. Combined reporting is the only effective way for any state to impose a fair and uniform corporation income tax on multistate and multinational enterprises and to gain or maintain control over its own tax base. The current Louisiana corporate income tax is subject to abuse through tax planning techniques that are …
