The Battered Women Syndrome In Florida: Junk Science Or Admissible, Jay B. Rosman

St. Thomas Law Review

In this paper I will examine the admissibility of the battered woman syndrome in Florida as scientific evidence. At the outset I recognize many differing audiences title the syndrome in different ways. My focus is not on the correctness of its title but upon its admissibility in courts in Florida. My overall perspective is based on standards set forth by the Frye' and Dauber? cases. In order to understand the syndrome, it will be necessary to first look at the concept of domestic violence. It will also be important to consider what the term battered woman syndrome means. After discussing …

Unhappy Anniversary - Thirty Years Since Miller V. California: The Legacy Of The Supreme Court's Misjudgement On Obscenity, Daniel Mark Cohen

St. Thomas Law Review

If it is true, as Aristotle suggested, that man is by nature a political animal, the current state of American society demonstrates, to any who might doubt the proposition, that man is equally, if not more so, a sexual one. With successive blessings by the Supreme Court, and so, with legal and social impunity, the companion American realms of commerce and entertainment are now thoroughly suffused with images of an openly sexual nature and purpose. These images, generated with conscious calculation and without discrimination as to the age or interest of potential recipients, are employed primarily for pecuniary purpose-that is, …

Pointing The Finger Of Blame: News Media Coverage Of Popular-­Culture Culpability, Erica Scharrer, Lisa M. Weidman, Kimberly Bissell

Faculty Publications

In the 1990s, three relatively high-profile tragedies occurred in which popular media products (including movies, recorded music, television talk shows, the Internet, tabloid newspapers, and video games) were argued to be the primary cause. This study analyzes the discourse surrounding the culpability that was placed on popular culture in major newspaper coverage of the car crash that killed Princess Diana, the murder associated with the “Jenny Jones” show, and the shootings at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado. The analysis reveals patterns in the assignment of blame—and relatively more rarely of exoneration—of popular culture, interpreting why and how popular culture …

Authenticity In The Skateboarding World, Becky Beal, Lisa Weidman

Faculty Publications

The purpose of this chapter is to illustrate the values and norms that constitute legitimacy, or authenticity, in the skateboarding world. Both authors spent a considerable amount of time with the skateboarding world in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Lisa Weidman worked at a skateboarding magazine for several years, and Becky Beal did an extensive ethnographic study of skateboarders. Using our experiences and research, we describe the characteristics that skateboarders and the industry use to identify an authentic skateboarder. The first section, on the skaters' perspective, is based primarily on Beal's interactions with skateboarders; the second section, on the …

“Legal Or Illegal? Documented Or Undocumented?” The Struggle Over Brookhaven’S Neighborhood Preservation Act, Jackson B. Miller

Faculty Publications

This critical essay applies the concept of “presence” as a theoretical lens for explaining the rhetorical efficacy of protest events surrounding a contemporary debate about immigrants’ rights in a suburban New York township. Specifically, the protests surrounding the town board meetings regarding Brookhaven’s “Neighborhood Preservation Act,” a piece of legislation geared toward making rental laws more stringent, are examined. A group comprised largely of white, upper middle-class citizens voiced their support for the proposed legislation, while a group of day laborers and those sympathetic with their cause characterized the proposed legislation as a form of racial discrimination disguised as a …

Remedying Past Abuses Of Governmental Power - Legal Accountability For The 1968 Events In Poland, Susanne Starecki

UC Law SF International Law Review

Since the 1968 events in Poland, the Polish government has systematically subjected Polish Jews to degrading treatment, denied them their rights to freedom of religion, denied them their right to the enjoyment of property and engaged in numerous acts of discrimination. The issue of justice and reparations for these Polish Jews must be addressed. This note examines the means Polish Jews may explore to remedy Polish governmental abuses. Due to the absence of applicable domestic laws and reparations by Poland, Polish Jews need to utilize international tribunals, particularly the European Court of Human Rights.

Reclaiming Civil Rights In Uncivil Times, Eric K. Yamamoto

UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice

Three Cs: Celebration, Caution, and Challenge. Three C's of both worry and hope. The first C is to celebrate the Civil Rights Movement's accomplishments, then and now-the innumerable ways as the movement broadened it has bettered the daily lives of communities of color and, indeed, all Americans. The second C is caution-to caution against the dismantling of civil rights fueled in part by the conservative New Federalism. The third C is challenge-to envision our role in justice struggles in the post-September 11th Bush-Ashcroft era and, specifically, to think hard about what "Civil Rights" now means and why "Reclaiming Civil Rights' …
