Occupational Health And Safety Status Of Indigenous And Latino Farmworkers In Oregon, Stephanie Farquhar, Nancy M. Goff, Nargess Shadbeh, Julie Samples, Santiago Ventura, Valentin Sanchez, Pamela Rao, Shelley Davis

Community Health Faculty Publications and Presentations

Exposure to pesticides poses great risk to agricultural workers and their families. Of the approximately 174,000 agricultural workers in Oregon, studies estimate that up to 40% of the workers in Oregon are indigenous and may be particularly vulnerable to the health risks of working in pesticide treated areas. Surveys conducted with Oregon farmworkers suggest that Latino and indigenous farmworkers differ demographically and may have diverse occupational and health needs. All Latino workers reported Spanish as their native language, while indigenous workers spoke several different native languages. Latino workers were employed mostly in orchards (28%) and nurseries (24%), while indigenous workers …

Społeczna Odpowiedzialność Biznesu. Wymiar Konstytucyjny I Międzynarodowy, Maciej Bernatt

Monografie CARS/CARS Monographs

Czwarta publikacja z serii „Studiów i Monografii Antymonopolowych i Regulacyjnych” – efekt indywidualnego projektu badawczego autora – jest pierwszym w Polsce tak kompleksowym ujęciem zagadnienia społecznej odpowiedzialności biznesu z perspektywy nauk prawnych, zwłaszcza w wymiarze konstytucyjnym i międzynarodowym.

Prezentowane w książce normatywne spojrzenie na społeczną odpowiedzialność biznesu może mieć duże znaczenie praktyczne zarówno jako przyczynek do dyskursu naukowego nad tym zjawiskiem, jak i zachęta do angażowania się przedsiębiorców w działania prospołeczne. Prawne spojrzenie na społeczną odpowiedzialność biznesu pozwala także oderwać to zjawisko od jego tradycyjnego pojmowania jedynie w kategoriach promocji przedsiębiorców. Na szczególną uwagę zasługuje prezentowane przez autora porównanie obowiązków …

Global Conventions Go Local: A Human Rights Movement In New York City, Yalidy M. Matos

Gender, Sexuality, and Intersectionality Studies Honors Papers

The United Nations (UN) has a multitude of global conventions and treaties in which its members states can choose to sign and ratify. Two of those treaties are CERD, the International Convention on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, adopted in 1966; and CEDAW, the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women, adopted in 1979. Throughout the world, almost all UN member states have ratified CERD; however, all but a few minority states have ratified CEDAW. Amongst those few minorities is the United States. Although the U.S. has decided not to ratify CEDAW, there are various localities, …

Aggregate Litigation Across The Atlantic And The Future Of American Exceptionalism, Richard A. Nagareda

Vanderbilt Law Review

In long-running debates over civil justice reform, two points remain broadly shared: the legal regime for civil litigation in this country is exceptional by comparison to European systems as a positive matter, and the United States is much the worse for it in normative terms. The positive dimension of this account pinpoints several exceptional features of the U.S. civil justice system: class actions, primarily on an opt-out basis; contingency-fee financing of litigation; rejection of Euro-style "loser-pays" rules that link responsibility for the fees of both sides to the outcome of the litigation; extensive reliance on juries as fact finders; costly …

The article notes that the question of what tests courts should use in deciding whether to reveal the identities of anonymous Internet users is unsettled. Part II of the Article discusses the various tests courts have applied in determining whether the identity of an anonymous Internet user should be revealed—including a good-faith test, a summary judgment standard, and a balancing test. Part III analyzes the merits of each test. Finally, Part IV concludes by recommending the appropriate test courts should use in deciding whether to reveal the identities of anonymous Internet users.

The Effects Of Liberalization On Litigation: Notes Toward A Theory In The Context Of Japan, Tom Ginsburg

Articles

This Essay examines the under-studied relationship between liberalization and litigation. Liberalization should lead to expanded civil litigation for four reasons: (1) new market entrants are less subject to informal sanctions and may have a greater propensity to go to court; (2) privatization transfers resources away from the state, expanding the number of transactions subject to civil law regimes; (3) liberalization reduces the government’s ability to resolve disputes outside the courts; and (4) liberalization leads to economic development, which is generally litigation-enhancing. We test these propositions using a unique dataset of prefecture-level civil litigation data in Japan during the 1990s. Using …

Expanding Rural Elder Care Options: Models That Work, Peter Fitzgerald Msc, Andrew F. Coburn Phd, Sharon K. Dwyer Ms

Population Health & Health Policy

Rural communities and elders need better access to elder care options that enable them to continue to live in the community. Despite a larger proportion of the population over age 65 than urban and suburban America, rural communities lack the services and care coordination systems older adults need to continue living independently in their own communities as they age.

In November 2008, the Rural Long Term Care Workgroup convened a national Rural Long Term Care: Access and Options Workshop to identify lessons and strategies for building and sustaining rural community-based elder care services. Finding and building on successful models is …
