Muslim Profiles Post 9/11: Is Racial Profiling An Effective Counterterrorist Measure And Does It Violate The Right To Be Free From Discrimination?, Bernard E. Harcourt Mar 2006

Muslim Profiles Post 9/11: Is Racial Profiling An Effective Counterterrorist Measure And Does It Violate The Right To Be Free From Discrimination?, Bernard E. Harcourt

Coase-Sandor Institute for Law & Economics Research Paper Series

Racial profiling as a defensive counterterrorism measure necessarily implicates a rights trade-off: if effective, racial profiling limits the right of young Muslim men to be free from discrimination in order to promote the security and well-being of others. Proponents of racial profiling argue that it is based on simple statistical fact and represents "just smart law enforcement." Opponents of racial profiling, like New York City police commissioner Raymond Kelly, say that it is dangerous and "just nuts." As a theoretical matter, both sides are partly right. Racial profiling in the context of counterterrorism measures may increase the detection of terrorist …

This Bridge Called Our Backs: An Introduction To “The Future Of Critical Race Feminism”, Angela Onwuachi-Willig Mar 2006

This Bridge Called Our Backs: An Introduction To “The Future Of Critical Race Feminism”, Angela Onwuachi-Willig

Faculty Scholarship

On April 1, 2005, the U.C. Davis Law Review hosted in its annual symposium an extremely distinguished group of scholars, who addressed central theories of Critical Race Feminism (“CRF”) in a daylong series of inspiring, thought-provoking, cutting-edge, and captivating presentations. The panelists at the symposium — in front of a packed room of students, professors, and local residents — delved into issues as diverse as the unique role of immigrant women in community economic development, societal failure to deal with domestic violence from a multidimensional perspective, the proposal of a contractual good faith claim based on Professors Devon Carbado and …


Falling Short Of The Mark: An International Study On The Treatment Of Victims Of Human Trafficking, Benjamin Perrin Mar 2006

Falling Short Of The Mark: An International Study On The Treatment Of Victims Of Human Trafficking, Benjamin Perrin

All Faculty Publications

Victims of human trafficking live in a world of fear and despair. The treatment afforded to these victims when they finally emerge from the violent and brutal cycle of human trafficking tells us something about our own societies. This Study has been undertaken to evaluate the progress made by various developed countries towards implementing their international obligations to protect victims of human trafficking, and to assess the treatment given to these victims in comparison to international best practices. The Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, supplementing the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized …

Asymmetrical Attitudes And Participatory Justice, Michael Giudice Mar 2006

Asymmetrical Attitudes And Participatory Justice, Michael Giudice

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article explores the asymmetry in attitudes toward law between legal officials and citizens, arguing that this disconnect leads to deficiencies in moral justice. It suggests that participatory justice practices, inspired by Aboriginal legal traditions, can bridge this gap by emphasizing context-sensitive, individualized approaches to dispute resolution.


Empire State Injustice: Based Upon A Decade Of New Information, A Preliminary Evaluation Of How New York's Death Penalty System Fails To Meet Standards For Accuracy And Fairness, Sara Darehshori, Jeffrey L. Kirchmeier, Colleen Quinn Brady, Evan Mandery Mar 2006

Empire State Injustice: Based Upon A Decade Of New Information, A Preliminary Evaluation Of How New York's Death Penalty System Fails To Meet Standards For Accuracy And Fairness, Sara Darehshori, Jeffrey L. Kirchmeier, Colleen Quinn Brady, Evan Mandery

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The article argues that New York's death penalty system requires significant reforms to address systemic flaws, particularly the risk of wrongful convictions and arbitrary sentencing. It emphasizes the need for the legislature to reexamine and revise the capital punishment framework in light of post-1995 research and recommendations from other states, such as Illinois and Massachusetts. The analysis highlights the importance of narrowing eligibility factors, improving procedural safeguards, and ensuring judicial discretion to prevent unjust outcomes.


Leaving Homeroom In Handcuffs: Why An Over-Reliance On Law Enforcement To Ensure School Safety Is Detrimental To Children, Jennie Rabinowitz Mar 2006

Leaving Homeroom In Handcuffs: Why An Over-Reliance On Law Enforcement To Ensure School Safety Is Detrimental To Children, Jennie Rabinowitz

Cardozo Public Law, Policy & Ethics Journal

The note critiques the increasing reliance on law enforcement and criminal justice systems to address school safety, arguing that such measures are often costly, ineffective, and disproportionately impact minority students. It advocates for alternative strategies, such as early intervention, education, and student empowerment, to prevent violence and create safer school environments. These approaches, the note suggests, not only reduce reliance on punitive measures but also address underlying issues and foster positive student outcomes.

Professional Integrity In Higher Education: Behind The Green Curtain In The Land Of Oz, Gordon A. Crews, Angela D. West Mar 2006

Professional Integrity In Higher Education: Behind The Green Curtain In The Land Of Oz, Gordon A. Crews, Angela D. West

Criminal Justice Faculty Publications

This article discusses concerns related to professional integrity in academics and to the use of collegiality as an informal criterion for employment and evaluation decisions. We question the nature of the educational enterprise and the academic environment within which both students and faculty operate. We use the AAUP Statement on Professional Ethics to guide our examination of collegiality, and the three traditional areas of faculty evaluation (teaching, scholarship, and service), as they relate to professional integrity. We discuss potential pitfalls in situations involving integrity concerns, and suggest that the use of collegiality in professional decisions is more prevalent and potentially …

The Impact Of Joinder And Severance On Federal Criminal Cases: An Empirical Study, Andrew D. Leipold, Hossein A. Abbasi

Vanderbilt Law Review

Dave is in trouble. It was bad enough to be arrested for bank robbery; now he has learned that the prosecutor plans to join the current charge with three other, unrelated bank robberies and present all four counts in a single trial. To his priest and to his lawyer, Dave admits that he committed the first and the second robberies, but he did not commit the third or fourth. Dave is smart enough to realize, however, that once the jury starts hearing evidence of some of the crimes-all of which will sound quite similar-his ability to cast doubt on the …


The Severely-Distressed African American Family In The Crack Era: Empowerment Is Not Enough, Eloise Dunlap, Andrew Golub, Bruce D. Johnson Mar 2006

The Severely-Distressed African American Family In The Crack Era: Empowerment Is Not Enough, Eloise Dunlap, Andrew Golub, Bruce D. Johnson

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Numerous African American families have struggled for generations with persistent poverty, especially in the inner city. These conditions were further strained during the 1980s and 1990s by the widespread use of crack cocaine. For many, crack use became an obsession, dominated their lives, and superseded family responsibilities. This behavior placed additional pressure on already stressed kin support networks. This paper explores the processes prevailing in two households during this period. In the 2000s, children born to members of the Crack Generation are avoiding use of crack but face major deficits from their difficult childhoods. This presents both challenges and opportunities. …
