Well-Being Analysis Vs. Cost-Benefit Analysis, John Bronsteen, Christopher Buccafusco, Jonathan S. Masur
Well-Being Analysis Vs. Cost-Benefit Analysis, John Bronsteen, Christopher Buccafusco, Jonathan S. Masur
Faculty Publications & Other Works
Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) is the primary tool used by policymakers to inform administrative decisionmaking. Yet its methodology of converting preferences (often hypothetical ones) into dollar figures, then using those dollar figures as proxies for quality of life, creates significant systemic errors. These problems have been lamented by many scholars, and recent calls have gone out from world leaders and prominent economists to find an alternative analytical device that would measure quality of life more directly. This Article proposes well-being analysis (WBA) as that alternative. Relying on data from studies in the field of hedonic psychology that track people’s actual experience …

Inter-Agency Coordination: The Key To Successfully Transition Juvenile Offenders Back Into The Educational Mainstream, Robyn Beth Gordon
Dissertations
The focus of this study was to determine the characteristics of successful re-entry programs for youth as they transition back into the educational mainstream. The study was also used to determine the implementation needed for effective inter-agency coordination of social service systems for students to successfully transition into the educational setting. The NCLB accountability measures were reviewed to discover how the measures influenced educators and created a reluctance to accept delinquent youth when they re-enter public school. The three overarching questions addressed in this study were: What inter-agency involvement is necessary in implementing a successful re-entry program? What are the …

Beyond Seduction: Lessons Learned About Rape, Politics, And Power From Dominique Strauss-Kahn And Moshe Katsav, Hannah Brenner
Beyond Seduction: Lessons Learned About Rape, Politics, And Power From Dominique Strauss-Kahn And Moshe Katsav, Hannah Brenner
Faculty Scholarship
In the last decade, two influential international political figures, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, former head of the International Monetary Fund, and Moshe Katsav, former President of Israel, were accused of engaging in extreme and ongoing patterns of sexual violence. The collection offormal charges against the two men included rape, forcible indecent assault, sexual harassment, and obstruction of justice. The respective narratives surrounding the allegations against Katsav and Strauss-Kahn have their own individual characteristics, and each of the cases unfolded in diverging ways. Yet, the actions of these two men taken together, and the corresponding response of the legal systems in France, Israel, …

Gender Differences In The Effects Of Exposure To Violence On Adolescent Substance Use, Gillian M. Pichevsky, Emily M. Wright, Abigail A. Fagan
Gender Differences In The Effects Of Exposure To Violence On Adolescent Substance Use, Gillian M. Pichevsky, Emily M. Wright, Abigail A. Fagan
Criminology and Criminal Justice Faculty Publications
To date, research exploring gender differences in the relationship between exposure to community violence and substance use has been limited. This study employs longitudinal data from the Project on Human Development in Chicago Neighborhoods (PHDCN) to assess the exposure to violence–substance use relationship and explore whether this relationship varies by gender. We find that the two forms of exposure to violence—direct (primary) and indirect (secondary)—independently increase the frequency of subsequent alcohol use, binge drinking, and marijuana use among males and females. One gender difference emerged, as females who had been directly victimized engaged in more frequent binge drinking than males …

Sex Trafficking: The Influence Of Cultures, Socio-Economic Structures And Law & Order On Sex Trade In Asia, Saanya Dua
Political Science Theses and Capstones
Sex trafficking and prostitution are both matters of concern in today’s world. Trafficking of human beings is a global phenomenon and has been a topic of increased discussion and attention. It is believed that the sex trade industry is considered to be the fastest growing criminal industry in the world, currently it is second to drug trafficking in terms of profits through an illegal industry. Several initiatives have been made to prevent trafficking, through significant legislative and other actions provided to aid victims and those vulnerable in the world. However, the lack of systematic research is a big issue. Asia …
Punishing The Pen With The Sword?: Colombia's New, Extreme, And Ineffective Punishment For Plagiarism, David Cromwell
Punishing The Pen With The Sword?: Colombia's New, Extreme, And Ineffective Punishment For Plagiarism, David Cromwell
Washington International Law Journal
The Colombian Supreme Court of Justice recently sentenced a professor to two years in prison for plagiarizing a student’s thesis, an extreme punishment by both comparative and Colombian standards. Despite its severity and global ramifications, the decision has received little attention within the English-speaking legal community. This comment provides an overdue analysis of the case and clarifies the current state of Colombian copyright law, both on the books and on the ground. The comment argues that while the case has clarified that plagiarism is a crime in Colombia, addressing academic plagiarism through criminal punishment will likely do little to deter …

Perceptions Of Criminal And Gang Involvement Among College Student-Athletes, Geoff Alpert, Jeff Rojek, Scott H. Decker, J. Andrew Hansen, Randy Shannon, Dan Radakovich
Journal of Applied Sport Management
The involvement of youth and young adults in gangs and other criminal activities continues to be a serious threat and grounds for concern among a variety of stakeholders on college campuses and beyond. The extant literature examining the criminality of intercollegiate student-athletes is limited to media accounts or research focused on few types of offenses or athletics programs. The presence and impact of gangs in institutions such as secondary education and the military has been documented, but the expansion of gangs to college athletics has not been empirically verified despite media portrayals. The current study addresses these gaps in knowledge …

Instruments Of Righteousness: The Intersections Of Black Power And Anti-Vietnam War Activism In The United States, 1964-1972, Amanda L. Higgins
Instruments Of Righteousness: The Intersections Of Black Power And Anti-Vietnam War Activism In The United States, 1964-1972, Amanda L. Higgins
Theses and Dissertations--History
Instruments of Righteousness investigates the class-, race-, and gender-based identities and intersections of women and men in the Black Power movement and their various organizing activities to gain certain and defined concessions from federal, state, and local governments. It argues that the intersections of Black Power and anti-Vietnam War activism created changing definitions of black masculinity and femininity, expressed through anti-draft and anti-war work. Black Power and anti-war activism cannot and should not be investigated separate from one another. The experiences of Black Power soldiers, antiwar members of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the Black Panther Party, and the …
Conviction Celerity, Punishment Severity, And Treatment Compliance As Predictors Of Dui Recidivism: Mediation And Moderation Models Of Deterrence, Megan F. Dickson
Conviction Celerity, Punishment Severity, And Treatment Compliance As Predictors Of Dui Recidivism: Mediation And Moderation Models Of Deterrence, Megan F. Dickson
Theses and Dissertations--Sociology
Driving under the influence (DUI) is one of the most frequently committed offenses in the United States and approximately one-third of DUI offenders are recidivists. Researchers have evaluated multiple DUI prevention approaches, most of which have been rooted in deterrence theory. Recently, the criminal justice system has moved away from deterrence-based approaches and begun employing various forms of rehabilitation to reduce DUI recidivism. This shift in the criminal justice system has lead researchers to begin exploring the effects of rehabilitation on DUI offenders, including an examination of offender compliance with rehabilitation programs. Although each of these areas has been investigated …

Microglia Activation In A Rodent Model Of An Alcohol Use Disorder: The Importance Of Phenotype, Initiation, And Duration Of Activation, Simon A. Marshall
Theses and Dissertations--Pharmacy
Chronic ethanol exposure results in neuroadaptations that drive the progression of an alcohol use disorder (AUD). One such driving force is alcohol-induced neurodegeneration. Neuroinflammation has been proposed as a mechanism underlying this damage. Although neuroinflammation is a physiological response to damage, overactivation of its pathways can lead to neurodegeneration. A hallmark indicator of neuroinflammation is microglial activation, but microglial activation is a heterogeneous continuum of phenotypes that can promote or inhibit neuroinflammation. Furthermore acute microglial activation is necessary to restore homeostasis, but prolonged activation can exacerbate damage. The diversity of microglia makes both the level and timecourse of activation vital …

Seriously Though... Is Positive Workplace Humor A Help Or A Hindrance?: The Impact Of Coworker-Employee Humor Interactions On Employee Well-Being And Effectiveness, Mary Sierra
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The prevalence and importance of humor in the workplace has been well-documented over the past several decades, with research consistently revealing its significant impact on employee well-being and effectiveness. During this same time period, organizations worldwide have begun embracing team-based work designs as a means for achieving success. As a result, the degree to which employees are engaging in both frequent and intensive interactions with their coworkers is rapidly increasing. Despite these trends, little research has been dedicated to investigating the ways in which employees’ well-being and effectiveness are influenced by the humor of their coworkers or the ways in …

The Flawed U.S. Approach To Rule Of Law Development, Cynthia Alkon
The Flawed U.S. Approach To Rule Of Law Development, Cynthia Alkon
Dickinson Law Review (1908-2003)
The key flaw to the United States' approach to rule of law development is routinely including the "standard menu" of rule of law development assistance as a part of the overall development effort without regard to whether the recipient country is at a developmental stage where it is able to absorb some or all of this type of aid. This article uses Afghanistan as a case study. Despite a decade of assistance, Afghanistan remains a fragile and conflict-affected country, thus raising concerns about the value of the aid given and whether rule of law development aid should continue to be …
Does Living By The Sword Mean Dying By The Sword?, Charles Chernor Jalloh
Does Living By The Sword Mean Dying By The Sword?, Charles Chernor Jalloh
Dickinson Law Review (1908-2003)
This article examines the right to self-representation in international criminal law, and the common challenges posed for judges effectuating that right in international criminal courts. Using a comparative law approach, the paper demonstrates how the interpretation of that right initially borrowed heavily from U.S. common law and later European civil law to address the problems caused by self-representing, disruptive, and uncooperative defendants. Although the right to self-representation is a Sixth Amendment right in U.S. law, and an equally fundamental one in international law, the author contends that this right seems better in theory than in practice. Indeed, since no self-representing …
The International Criminal Court Ten Years Later: Appraisal And Prospects, Joseph M. Isanga
The International Criminal Court Ten Years Later: Appraisal And Prospects, Joseph M. Isanga
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The International Criminal Court (ICC) faces significant challenges in achieving its objectives of deterrence, retribution, and ending impunity, primarily due to slow procedures, lack of state cooperation, and perceptions of bias. While the ICC has made qualitative contributions to international criminal law, its effectiveness is undermined by procedural inefficiencies, political interference, and limited enforcement mechanisms. The court's reliance on the complementarity principle and state cooperation highlights the tension between its judicial and political roles, with its future success contingent on addressing these systemic issues.
American Criminal Procedure In A European Context, Mar Jimeno-Bulnes
American Criminal Procedure In A European Context, Mar Jimeno-Bulnes
Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
The article examines the historical and contemporary distinctions between the accusatorial and inquisitorial criminal justice systems, tracing their evolution from common law and civil law traditions. It highlights the increasing convergence of these models, particularly the influence of the U.S. adversarial system on European procedures, while critiquing the practical challenges and inefficiencies of both systems. The analysis emphasizes the tension between procedural fairness and efficiency, urging reforms to address these issues.
