Environmental Quality As A National Good In A Federal State, Richard B. Stewart

Faculty Articles

Adoption of new approaches to securing the national good of environmental quality will depend critically on the intermediaries who determine or influence how public demand for environmental quality is channeled into the design and implementation of concrete environmental policy measures. These intermediaries are political and policy entrepreneurs, the media, legislators, regulators and administrators, environmental groups, industry, and others. Many of these intermediaries have a strong vested interest in the existing centralized command and control system. Many will continue to try to use environmental regulation to extract rents or otherwise advance their interests. These realities must be taken into account in …

State Environmental Standard-Setting: Is There A "Race" And Is It "To The Bottom"?, Kirsten H. Engel

UC Law Journal

Federal intervention in environmental standard-setting is often justified as necessary to prevent states from engaging in a welfare-reducing "race-to-the-bottom" spurred by interstate competition for industry. Traditionally, scholars base the "race-to-the-bottom" assumption upon game theoretic models such as the classic Prisoner's Dilemma. Applying a neoclassical economic approach, however, some legal scholars have recently argued that interstate competition is conducive to efficiency and thus that there is no "race-to-the-bottom." In this Article, Professor Engel points out that these arguments have little empirical basis and provides, for the first time in the legal literature, an empirical framework for determining which of the existing …

Environmental Inequity: Economic Causes, Economic Solutions, Thom Lambert, Christopher Boerner

Faculty Publications

The article examines one such shortcoming: namely, that existing research fails to account for the dynamic nature of the housing market. Analyzing data from the St. Louis metropolitan area, this study finds that economic factors--not siting discrimination--are behind many claims of environmental racism. This phenomenon suggests the need to develop public policies that fit the economic nature of the problem. In particular, a policy that compensates individuals living near industrial sites is the key to securing environmental justice.

Genetics, Iq, Determinism, And Torts: The Example Of Discovery In Lead Exposure Litigation, Jennifer Wriggins

Faculty Publications

This article discusses a disturbing development in tort litigation in which defendants use deterministic, genetics-based ideas about individuals and their families to undercut and deflect attention from personal injury claims. Lead exposure litigation involving cognitive injuries claimed on behalf of children who have ingested lead paint is the context of this development. The most extreme manifestation to date has been the efforts in several states to compel relatives of lead-exposed children (usually mothers) to have IQ and psychological testing, even though they are not parties to the litigation. Rule 35 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and its state …

Small Business And Community Economic Development: Transactional Lawyering For Social Change And Economic Justice, Susan R. Jones

This article analyzes the benefits to clinical legal education of these transactional clinics' in contrast to more traditional clinics by exploring these clinics contribution to the development of the skills and values sought to be taught through clinical legal education. Part I explains the importance of microbusinesses …
