Re-Membering Law In The Internationalizing World, Vivian Grosswald Curran
Re-Membering Law In The Internationalizing World, Vivian Grosswald Curran
Hofstra Law Review
This article examines some of the challenges to understanding new, non-national legal configurations as contexts of origin color understandings and evaluations of legal standards allegedly shared across legal communities. It examines a case on assisted suicide, Pretty v. U.K., decided by the European Court of Human Rights. The case illustrates mechanisms of legal integration in the European court, followed by a process of dis-integration that occurred when the decision was reported to the French legal community. The French rendition reflected a legal community's inability to process common law information through civil law cognitive grids. The article addresses both the capacity …
The Evolution Of The "Patient": Shifts In Attitudes About Consent, Genetic Information, And Commercialization In Health Care, Janet L. Dolgin
The Evolution Of The "Patient": Shifts In Attitudes About Consent, Genetic Information, And Commercialization In Health Care, Janet L. Dolgin
Hofstra Law Review
This paper considers the importation of the notion of autonomous individuality into the world of healthcare during the last half century; it also explores the related transformation of the patient into a consumer. These developments have many beneficial dimensions. However, this paper focuses on these developments gone awry so that the result is some sort of excess. The paper describes three such excesses. It refers to the first as the elaboration of autonomous individuality and illustrates it with reference to the involution of the informed consent doctrine.The second excess is referred to as the perversion of autonomous individuality; this is …

Attractive Complexity: Tax Deregulation, The Check-The-Box Election, And The Future Of Tax Simplification, Steven A. Dean
Attractive Complexity: Tax Deregulation, The Check-The-Box Election, And The Future Of Tax Simplification, Steven A. Dean
Hofstra Law Review
Political failure has long been the scapegoat for the increasing complexity of the income tax. Over the last few decades, confusion over the meaning of the term simplification appears to have become a second important obstacle to creating simpler tax laws. Because some tax complexity is attractive to taxpayers, relying on taxpayer preferences to identify complexity and to guide simplification efforts has produced reforms and proposals that promise simplification but instead deliver pro-taxpayer deregulation that may cause more of society's resources to be devoted to paying, minimizing and collecting taxes rather than less. The check-the-box election, which provided taxpayers with …

Sociological Thought Experiments: Five Examples From The History Of Sociology, Michael R. Hill
Sociological Thought Experiments: Five Examples From The History Of Sociology, Michael R. Hill
Department of Sociology: Faculty Publications
Iam honored to speak with you today about several topics close to my professional and personal heart. I say personal as well as professional because for some twenty years now my interest in the history of sociology has developed and deepened in tandem with the pioneering research conducted by my life-partner, MaryJo Deegan. Her work on Jane Addams and the Men of the Chicago School, 1892-1918 (Deegan 1988a) has become the paradigm example for the “new history” in sociology, and it is my inspiration for today’s discussion.

Agglomeration Effects And Strategic Orientations: Evidence From The U.S. Lodging Industry, Linda Canina, Cathy A. Enz, Jeffrey S. Harrison
Management Faculty Publications
This study provides evidence regarding the strategic dynamics of competitive clusters. Firms that agglomerate (co-locate) may benefit from the differentiation of competitors without making similar differentiating investments themselves. Alternatively, co-locating with a high percentage of firms with low-cost strategic orientations reduces performance for firms pursuing high levels of differentiation. Further, the lowest-cost providers with the greatest strategic distance from the norm of the competitive cluster reap the greatest benefit from co-location with differentiated firms. We find empirical support for these ideas using a sample of 14,995 U.S. lodging establishments, and controlling for a number of key demand-shaping factors.

In Teachers' Hands: Effective Literacy Teaching Practices In The Early Years Of Schooling, William Louden, Mary Rohl, Caroline Barratt Pugh, Claire Brown, Trevor Cairney, Jess Elderfield, Helen House, Marion Meiers, Judith Rivalland, Ken Rowe
Monitoring Learning
This project investigated the link between children’s growth in English literacy in the early years of schooling and their teachers’ classroom teaching practices. Using the LLANS literacy assessment tasks, 2000 children from every state and territory were assessed at the beginning and end of their first or second year at school. The teaching practices used by teachers whose students made most progress were explored. The effective teachers used a wide repertoire and demonstrated key teaching practices with greater consistency, skill and subtlety.

This Article argues that the approach to treaties taken early in the history of the Republic is more consistent with the intended meaning of the Supremacy Clause than the approach reflected in recent judicial practice.
Stages Of Evil: Occultism In Western Theater And Drama, Robert Lima
Stages Of Evil: Occultism In Western Theater And Drama, Robert Lima
Studies in Romance Languages Series
“The evil that men do” has been chronicled for thousands of years on the European stage, and perhaps nowhere else is human fear of our own evil more detailed than in its personifications in theater. In Stages of Evil, Robert Lima explores the sociohistorical implications of Christian and pagan representations of evil and the theatrical creativity that occultism has engendered. By examining examples of alchemy, astronomy, demonology, exorcism, fairies, vampires, witchcraft, hauntings, and voodoo in prominent plays, Stages of Evil explores American and European perceptions of occultism from medieval times to the modern age.

Picric Acid Degradation In Sterilized Sediments From The Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant, Minden, Louisiana, Stephanie Kimberly Rice
Picric Acid Degradation In Sterilized Sediments From The Louisiana Army Ammunition Plant, Minden, Louisiana, Stephanie Kimberly Rice
Honors Theses
Picric acid is an explosive historically produced and disposed of at the Louisiana Army Ammunitions Plant (LAAP). The potential for natural degradation was investigated in two studies by creating picric acid slurries with four LAAP samples of sediment of variable composition. While the first study combined the sediment with picric acid without alteration to the sediment, the second study sterilized the sediment before the slurries were created. The purpose of the soil sterilization was to quantify the role of microbes in the degradation process. In the first study, picric acid concentrations decreased 10 to 18% the first day, attributed to …
News Media Consumption And Perceptions Of Poverty Within A Sample At The University Of Mississippi, Erin M. Smith
News Media Consumption And Perceptions Of Poverty Within A Sample At The University Of Mississippi, Erin M. Smith
Honors Theses
The American news media are the cultural shapers of today’s society. Their many stories create a visual sense of reality for the consuming public, and many media critics have begun to call foul for their many misrepresentations of minorities, in particular their over-representation of black poverty. These representations have been shown to have substantial influence on the public’s perception of poverty, which may shape the attitudes and beliefs toward certain policy implementation. To test the validity of such claims, a quantitative instrument was distributed over the course of two days at the University of Mississippi. Also, the survey was designed …
New Methods Of Marketing And Manufacturing For A Startup Optical Internet Retailer, William Sharp Whitaker
New Methods Of Marketing And Manufacturing For A Startup Optical Internet Retailer, William Sharp Whitaker
Honors Theses
The internet has allowed commerce to become more efficient and more profitable for companies involved in retail. The retail optical industry has failed to capitalize this opportunity and this thesis explains how it can be done. The opportunity to increase profits exists for optical labs in the form of inexpensive Mexican labor. By committing investment into a lab south of the Mexican- American border, business owners have a great deal to gain. This thesis explains how to operate manufacturing in Mexico and how to conduct operations more efficiently than American competitors. By following some industry standards of marketing and evaluating …
