Addressing Dilemmas Of The Global And The Local In Transitional Justice, Dustin N. Sharp Jan 2014

Addressing Dilemmas Of The Global And The Local In Transitional Justice, Dustin N. Sharp

Emory International Law Review

Professor Dustin N. Sharp analyzes and deconstructs the concept of the local in the context of transitional justice. While involving the local is a key to success in transitional justice interventions, in practice, the local is often overlooked or restricted by the global. Professor Sharp argues that understanding the global-local dilemma requires at least three things. First, we must understand why transitional justice became the focus for global-local tensions. Professor Sharp indentifies the Western historical and ideological origins of transitional justice as sources for global-local tensions. Second, we must understand local ownership. By describing the components of local ownership (actual …

Te Efect Of Experiencing Child Physical Abuse On Violence In Adolescence Is Weakest In The Most Disadvantaged Neighbourhoods, Emily M. Wright

Criminology and Criminal Justice Faculty Publications

It is reasonably well established that those who suffer physical abuse as children are more likely to be violent as adolescents and young adults. It is less well known, however, whether the effects of abuse are amplified or made weaker by the social circumstances in which a child lives.

What Can Medicine Teach The Social Sciences?, Lee Mcintyre Jan 2014

What Can Medicine Teach The Social Sciences?, Lee Mcintyre

UC Law Science and Technology Journal

In a field as slow to change as the law, it is often helpful to inject fresh perspectives from other disciplines. As different as legal analysis might be from that found in the medical and social sciences, they are all ultimately concerned with the pursuit of objectivity. Furthermore, in each of these fields, the pursuit of academic and practical goals are permeated and influenced by the values of those that seek to achieve them. Indeed, both the law and the social sciences in particular are fundamentally concerned with finding ways of distilling logic and order from the complexities of human …

The Inmate Export Business And Other Financial Adventures: Correctional Policies For Times Of Austerity, Hadar Aviram Jan 2014

The Inmate Export Business And Other Financial Adventures: Correctional Policies For Times Of Austerity, Hadar Aviram

UC Law Journal of Race and Economic Justice

The fallout of the financial crisis continues to have major effects across the American correctional landscape. Federal and state budgetary limits have slowed and even reversed what were thought to be ever-rising incarceration rates. While this has successfully led to less punitive policies regarding the death penalty and the war on drugs, incarceration practices have affected punitivism in more complex ways. This article explores the correctional changes prompted by the financial crisis that are being made not at the ballot box, but behind closed doors. The outcomes of negotiations between prison administrators and private service providers, or amongst state governments, …

Juries And Social Media: Northwest Ohio's Response To This Phenomenon, Erica Lunderman

Honors Projects

The 21st century is an era in which the dependence on technology is at an all-time high. The availability of information on social networking sites has recently sparked a debate in regards to jury impartiality. Over the last few years states such as Florida, Michigan, and New York have received scholastic attention for making changes to local jury instructions to ensure defendant’s rights of an impartial jury guaranteed by the Sixth Amendment. Federal national jury instructions addressing juror social media usage has also drawn attention. Little, however, scholastic attention has been directed towards Northwest Ohio. This project will look …

A Clustering Method To Identify Who Benefits Most From The Treatment Group In Clinical Trials, Beom S. Lee, Pranab K. Sen, Nan Park, Roger A. Boothroyd, Roger H. Peters, David A. Chiriboga

Mental Health Law & Policy Faculty Publications

In randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the most compelling need is to determine whether the treatment condition was more effective than control. However, it is generally recognized that not all participants in the treatment group of most clinical trials benefit equally. While subgroup analyses are often used to compare treatment effectiveness across pre-determined subgroups categorized by patient characteristics, methods to empirically identify naturally occurring clusters of persons who benefit most from the treatment group have rarely been implemented. This article provides a modeling framework to accomplish this important task. Utilizing information about individuals from the treatment group who had poor outcomes, …
