Advancing U.S. Interests With The International Criminal Court, David J. Scheffer Jan 2003

Advancing U.S. Interests With The International Criminal Court, David J. Scheffer

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

It is a great pleasure to be here in this beautiful lecture hall at Vanderbilt University Law School and to have the opportunity to speak to you this afternoon about the International Criminal Court (ICC). In recent months, one newspaper or magazine article after another, in examining the foreign policy of the current administration and the gulf (which seems to be so pronounced now) between the United States and even its closest allies throughout the rest of the world, has listed a basic set of treaties as being partly explanatory of that gulf. The Kyoto Protocol, for example, is always …


On Virtue And Peace: Creating A Workplace Where People Can Flourish, Caryn L. Beck-Dudley, Steven H. Hanks Jan 2003

On Virtue And Peace: Creating A Workplace Where People Can Flourish, Caryn L. Beck-Dudley, Steven H. Hanks

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

In this Article, Professors Beck-Dudley and Hanks explore the virtues necessary for individuals to flourish within a business organization. Through this exploration, they conclude that modern discussions of business ethics fail to account for the value and virtue of peaceableness. Then, focusing on the freedom from conflict aspect of peaceableness, they use Champion Paper Products, Sartell Minnesota Paper Mill, as a case study in the significant improvements in human flourishing and organizational performance that can occur when management and labor choose peaceable solutions to labor conflicts.

Serving Pro Se Patrons: An Obligation And An Opportunity, Kerry Fitz-Gerald Jan 2003

Serving Pro Se Patrons: An Obligation And An Opportunity, Kerry Fitz-Gerald

Faculty Articles

Historically, non-lawyer patrons in law libraries have been viewed with discomfort, and library services, even in libraries open to the public, have been geared toward members of the legal community. However, changes in both the needs of the public and in the demographics of library patrons are challenging the traditional allocation of services in public law libraries. This article discusses the reasons for the traditional allocation of services, the cultural and economic forces that are bringing the public to law libraries in greater numbers, and new modes of service that can better meet the needs of public patrons.


The Intricacies Of Commercial Arbitration In The United States And Brazil: A Comparison Of Two National Arbitration Statutes, Matthew Heaphy Jan 2003

The Intricacies Of Commercial Arbitration In The United States And Brazil: A Comparison Of Two National Arbitration Statutes, Matthew Heaphy

University of San Francisco Law Review

AS TRADE WITHIN the Western Hemisphere proliferates, transnational trade partners increasingly rely on arbitration as a means of dispute resolution in lieu of litigation. Brazil, the largest economy in Latin America, has historically been slow to adopt arbitration due to a lack of enforcement of arbitration agreements by the courts beyond the remedy of contractual damages and the requirement of judicial ratification of arbitral awards. The perception of Brazil's cautious approach to arbitration changed with the passage of Law No. 9.307 of 26 September 1996 ("Law No. 9.307"), bringing it closer in line with the pro-arbitration United States Federal Arbitration …


Musical Sound Recordings As Works Made For Hire: Money For Nothing And Tracks For Free, Scott T. Okamoto Jan 2003

Musical Sound Recordings As Works Made For Hire: Money For Nothing And Tracks For Free, Scott T. Okamoto

University of San Francisco Law Review

While the entire Copyright Clause has been the subject of extensive academic and judicial dissection, two phrases in particular are relevant to this discussion. "Author" means not only the narrow definition of a writer, "but rather [has] reach necessary to reflect the broad scope of constitutional principles." "[T]he term, in its constitutional sense, has been construed to mean an 'originator," 'he to whom anything owes its origin."' Thus, under this broad construction, an "Author" means anybody who creates an original work; that is, produces something "of one's own independent efforts".


Doe 1 V. City Of Murrieta: How The California Court Of Appeal Missed The Mark On Vicarious Liability For Sexual Torts Committed By On-Duty Police Officers, Tara L. Pennington Jan 2003

Doe 1 V. City Of Murrieta: How The California Court Of Appeal Missed The Mark On Vicarious Liability For Sexual Torts Committed By On-Duty Police Officers, Tara L. Pennington

University of San Francisco Law Review

The California Supreme Court held that the first situation involves such a powerful use of authority that the city employing the officer can be held vicariously liable for his sexual torts. However, in Doe 1 v. City of Murrieta, the California Court of Appeal decided that the City cannot be held vicariously liable in the second situation.


Contractual Arbitration, Mandatory Arbitration, And State Constitutional Jury-Trial Rights, Stephen J. Ware Jan 2003

Contractual Arbitration, Mandatory Arbitration, And State Constitutional Jury-Trial Rights, Stephen J. Ware

University of San Francisco Law Review

PROFESSOR JEAN STERNLIGHT believes that courts should be more reluctant to enforce arbitration agreements than they are to enforce contracts generally. In other words, she believes that contract law's standards of consent are not as high as the standards of consent that should be applied to arbitration agreements. This belief puts her at odds with the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), which requires courts to enforce arbitration agreements "save upon such grounds as exist at law or in equity for the revocation of any contract," and with the Supreme Court, which continues to recognize that the FAA places arbitration agreements "upon …

This collection offers an economics-based overview of the various facets of risk. It contains six papers that examine a broad array of research relating to risk. Two papers examine risk management and its application to decision making as well as what researchers have learned over the past few decades in their theoretical investigations of risk. The remaining chapters examine how risk plays out in the particular markets in which it has a significant presence, including casino gambling enterprises, agricultural markets, auctions, and health insurance.

Speech-Adaptive Time-Scale Modification For Computer Assisted Language Learning, Olivia Donnellan, Elmar Jung, Eugene Coyle Jan 2003

Speech-Adaptive Time-Scale Modification For Computer Assisted Language Learning, Olivia Donnellan, Elmar Jung, Eugene Coyle

Conference papers

In traditional foreign language learning programmes students are offered a tutor model characterised by slow, deliberate speech. This is insufficient to prepare them to cope with native, colloquial speech. By applying a timescale modification (TSM) algorithm to natural-speed, native speech, students have access to a more desirable, natural speech corpus which permits them to practise essential listening skills in a more focussed manner. This paper presents a method which allows slowing down speech without compromising the quality, pitch or naturalness of the slowed speech by applying different scaling factors to different types of speech segments. The new method is compared …
