Scholarship In Action: Transforming Community And Higher Education, Nancy Cantor Feb 2009

Scholarship In Action: Transforming Community And Higher Education, Nancy Cantor

Chancellor's Collection

Now is the time, as the Kellogg Commission has observed, for colleges and universities "to reshape our historic agreement with the American people so that it fits the times that are emerging instead of the times that have passed.” In the new world being forged by shared knowledge, universities are superbly positioned to transform themselves and their communities.We find ourselves on new ground, inspired by the possibilities for change, thinking about roles we can and should play in a new America. In this, we're invited by the social-legal theorist, Susan Sturm at Columbia to consider the “architecture of inclusion,” to …


Why Diversity Still Needs A Champion, Nancy Cantor Feb 2009

Why Diversity Still Needs A Champion, Nancy Cantor

Chancellor's Collection

Although The New York Times has already observed that President Barack Obama is an "omnipresent icebreaker" in the national conversation about race, now is a good time to recall the President's warning that we will not "get beyond our racial divisions in a single election cycle, or with a single candidacy" and that race is something in American history and life "that we've never really worked through." Diversity—and not only in race (though importantly race)—is an agenda that still needs champions, on campus as well as in Washington, D.C.

The Supreme Court's New Public-Private Distinction Under The Dormant Commerce Clause: Avoiding The Traditional Versus Nontraditional Classification Trap, Bradford Mank Jan 2009

The Supreme Court's New Public-Private Distinction Under The Dormant Commerce Clause: Avoiding The Traditional Versus Nontraditional Classification Trap, Bradford Mank

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

In its 2007 decision United Haulers Association, Inc. v. Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Management Authority, the Supreme Court for the first time held that the ‘dormant’ Commerce Clause doctrine (DCCD) allows for a distinction between appropriate laws establishing local government monopolies that provide public services such as waste disposal as opposed to inappropriate laws favoring the self interest of in-state private businesses over out-of-state competition. In addition, the Court emphasized that courts should apply the DCCD more leniently in the area of waste disposal because it is a traditional local government function. In its 2008 decision Department of Revenue of Kentucky …

Puerto Rican Studies: Changing Islands Of Knowledge, Pedro Caban Jan 2009

Puerto Rican Studies: Changing Islands Of Knowledge, Pedro Caban

Latin American, Caribbean, and U.S. Latino Studies Faculty Scholarship

This essay discusses the factors that help explain the paradox of Puerto Rican Studies; on one hand the sustained institutional resistance to the establishment of viable Puerto Rican Studies academic units, and on the other, the growing acceptance of Puerto Rican Studies scholarship as a viable contributor to multidisciplinary research and teaching. The essay reviews the context in which Puerto Rican Studies units were established and discusses the array of factors that curtailed their institutional development. It also traces the trajectory of Puerto Rican Studies scholarship. It summarizes the diverse research priorities and competing intellectual currents in the prevailing scholarship. …

Putting Community Equity In Community Development: Resident Equity Participation In Urban Redevelopment, Barbara Bezdek Jan 2009

Putting Community Equity In Community Development: Resident Equity Participation In Urban Redevelopment, Barbara Bezdek

Faculty Scholarship

The special concern of this paper is to recalibrate the benefits and burdens of public-private partnerships as they remake inner city neighborhoods, by braking the rate at which urban land is being reclaimed from low-wealth residents by local government practices to disperse occupants, sweeping aside their tangible and intangible capital. Public oversight requirements have not kept pace with the dispossession, yet the costs that these development decisions impose on the social fabric of communities rend the shared networks necessary to residents’ abilities to meet basic social needs. This destruction of low-wealth communities is a form of equity-stripping, produced by local …


Why Would Anyone Want To Be A Public Interest Lawyer?, Philip G. Schrag Jan 2009

Why Would Anyone Want To Be A Public Interest Lawyer?, Philip G. Schrag

Georgetown Law Faculty Lectures and Appearances

I can barely express how grateful the Law Center is to the Delaneys for their generous gift, or what an honor it is to be designated as the first Delaney Family Professor of Public Interest Law at this incredibly vibrant institution. But our celebration today is not merely the recognition of my scholarship or public service. What the Delaneys have done is to honor not only me but also the hundreds of Georgetown students, faculty, staff and alumni who perform public service. Whether they have achieved high office, like Senators Richard Durbin and Patrick Leahy, or provide free legal services …


Alternatives To Regulation?: Market Mechanisms And The Environment, David M. Driesen Jan 2009

Alternatives To Regulation?: Market Mechanisms And The Environment, David M. Driesen

College of Law - Faculty Scholarship

This book chapter presents a discussion of instrument choice in institutional context, with an emphasis on the Kyoto Protocol as an example of environmental benefit trading under a multilevel governance arrangement. Typically, economic models and qualitative discussion of instrument choice implicitly assume that a single regulator selects, designs, and enforces regulatory instruments. Increasingly, however, multiple polities implement regulatory instruments together. The Kyoto Protocol, for example, includes international, regional, national, sub-national, and private roles in the design and enforcement of emissions trading. This chapter emphasizes that design and enforcement are critical, as market mechanisms do not "automatically" produce environmental progress; rather …
