Beyond Equality? Against The Universal Turn In Workplace Protection, Jessica A. Clarke

Indiana Law Journal

Sexual harassment law and family leave policy originated as feminist reform projects designed to protect women in the workplace. But many academics now ask whether harassment and leave policies have outgrown their gendered roots. The anti-bullying movement advocates taking the “sexual” out of harassment law to prohibit all forms of on-the-job mistreatment. Likewise, the work-life balance movement advocates taking the “family” out of leave policy to require employers to accommodate all types of life pursuits. These proposals are in line with recent cases and scholarship on civil rights that reframe problems once seen as issues of inequality as deprivations of …

Untangling The Web: Exploring Internet Regulation Schemes In Western Democracies, Renee Keen

San Diego International Law Journal

This Comment investigates past censorship schemes proposed and implemented by selected democratic administrations, in order to develop an improved framework and accompanying infrastructure that may accomplish the goals that these policies envisioned, but failed to achieve. The difficulty of this undertaking is in developing the intermediate and legally defensible parameters under which a regulation scheme can endure and gain support in a democratic society. The greater difficulty lies in developing a system that can accomplish these objectives in the burgeoning and ever-changing cyber realm. The challenges posed by Internet activity are novel ones, and the legitimacy of the actions taken …

Part III of this comment will examine the trust-like duty both federal governments owe to indigenous populations in general, briefly describe benefits and services offered, and then discuss the legal effects of current legislation and regulations by the American and Canadian governments on Haudenosaunee tribal members living …

In Response: The Ideal Psychiatry Residency Training Program, Allan Tasman, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

There is little to be added in the way of specifics to James Deming's review of the necessary ingredients for an ideal Residency Training Program (1). He not only reviews the specific issues which must be addressed regarding the "nuts and bolts" of training, but also emphasizes the need for phase specificity of both clinical and didactic experiences and the need to view residency training from a developmental perspective. Rather than comment specifically on the points Deming raises, I would like to address other ingredients in residency training which are to be valued in the ideal program.

The Role Of The Resident On The Psychiatric Inpatient Unit: A Systems Perspective, E. Michael Kahn, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

A resident in psychiatry is customarily assigned to inpatient duty for the first year of training. The resident's tasks in this setting are complex, and he' is rarely prepared to perform all of them well (1,2,3). The stress on the resident in this situation is great. Most often, these challenges and their mastery are discussed in terms of intrapsychic conflicts; the traditional remedy is the assignment of a supervisor. Little consideration has be en given to the interpersonal and systems matrices in which these events occur, and the coping techniques and conceptual tools which the resident may use to meet …

Uses Of Carbamazepine For Psychiatric Disorders: A Review, Edward Kim, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

Carbamazepine, first synthesized in 1953, was initially marketed in Europe as an anticonvulsant. In 1971 Dalby reported the drug's psychotropic effects, most notably mood stabilization, in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) (1). Other psychiatric applications such as the treatment of affectively and behaviorally labile patients are being explored. These studies are yielding data relevant to the treatment and understanding of the neurobiology of mental illness. For this reason, familiarity with carbamazepine is becoming increasingly important to psychiatrists.

Dysmorphophobia In A Diastrophic Dwarf: A Psychiatry-Dermatology Liaison Approach, Donald J. Kushon, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

This is a case study of a 30-year-old male diastrophic dwarf who complained of hypertrichosis on his back and nose of 3 years duration. He had no previous psychiatric history, and although the distortion he described on his back was not apparent to others, there was a minimal amount of dark hair growth on his nose. He had unresolved conflicts concerning his disproportionate arms and legs and had sought surgical correction for many years from many orthopedic surgeons to no avail. After a diagnosis of dysmorphophobia was made by a psychiatric consultant, weekly visits with the dermatologist were arranged for …

Transparency And Termination In Group Psychotherapy: A Resident's Perspective, Althea Donovan, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

Termination has been seen as a difficult and complex process in group psychotherapy. Although termination of group members has be en explored, little is written on the subject of the therapist's termination; i.e., in the case of a group which continues after the therapist departs. This circumstance must occur frequently, however, especially since 91% of psychiatric programs, (Yalom (1985) citing Pinney) have at least one year of group psychotherapy training. This implies that group therapist termination must occur on a regular basis at some training programs. Even so, there are no specific guidelines or more general exploration of an inexperienced …

Psychotherapy And Mental Retardation: What's The Use?, Jolyn Welsh Wagner, Md

Jefferson Journal of Psychiatry

The lack of adequate treatment opportunities for mentally retarded people with emotional disturbances has been well documented (11,14,9,16,8,2 1,10,19). A high prevalence of psychopathology, estimated at 4- 5 times that of the non-retarded population (8,10) identifies a population extremely vulnerable to emotional problems. Although advocates from many disciplines, including psychiatry, (15) have worked diligently since the early 20th Century to eliminate massive institutionalization, sterilization, and isolation of the retarded from society's defensive arsenal, the mental healthfield, especially psychiatry, has failed to meet current needs with appropriate clinical services.
