Professional Women Silenced By Men-Made Norms, Maritza I. Reyes Jan 2015

Professional Women Silenced By Men-Made Norms, Maritza I. Reyes

Journal Publications

The call of this symposium was for articles regarding women's rights and the movement toward equality. We are still wrestling with what equality should mean. In this Article, when I refer to equality I envision it as both a strategy and as the end goal. Equality as a strategy means assessing the inherent inequalities of particular situations and using the means necessary to remedy the inequalities and achieve equality as the end goal. The end goal is for women (with all our complexities and intersectionalities) to achieve the same rights and results as men (with all their complexities and intersectionalities) …


A Primer On Higher Education In The 21st Century: The University As A Whole And Contributions Made By Law Schools, Ronald Griffin Jan 2015

A Primer On Higher Education In The 21st Century: The University As A Whole And Contributions Made By Law Schools, Ronald Griffin

Journal Publications

Citizens live within their unit's belief systems and superstitions. Truth is derived from family narratives, stories spun by old friends, outbursts from neighbours, barbers, religious figures, and priests. Certainty and comfort come from living in these spaces. But there is a wider world out there with characters doing things that conflict with routine. Higher education illuminates this realm. Legal education predicts what authorities will do about their antics and, while this is a laudable undertaking in the abstract, legal education should do more. It should arm the next generation with tools to cope with cultural ruptures, social confusion, dislocations, avatars, …


African Origins Of International Law: Myth Or Reality?, Jeremy I. Levitt Jan 2015

African Origins Of International Law: Myth Or Reality?, Jeremy I. Levitt

Journal Publications

This Article reconsiders the prevalent ahistorical assumption that international law began with the Treaty of Westphalia. It gathers together considerable historical evidence to conclude that the ancient world, particularly the New Kingdom period in Egypt or Kemet from 1570-1070 BCE, deployed all three of what today we would call sources of international law. African states predating the modern European nation state by nearly 6000 years engaged in treaty relations (the Treaty of Kadesh), and applied rules of custom (the MA 'AT) and general principles of law (as enumerated in the Egyptian Bill of Rights). While Egyptologists and a few international …


Liberalism And Economic Liberty, Jeppe Von Platz, John Tomasi Jan 2015

Liberalism And Economic Liberty, Jeppe Von Platz, John Tomasi

Philosophy Faculty Publications

The problem of economic liberty can be understood along two dimensions: the first concerns what significance economic liberties should have; the second concerns why they should have this significance. The significance of a liberty is a function of two variables; weight and scope. The weight of a liberty is the importance it should be accorded in political deliberation vis-a-vis other societal considerations that might inform the exercise of political authority. The weightier the liberty, the more significant it is, meaning that fewer or stronger societal considerations can justify regulating the sphere of agency protected by this liberty.


From ‘Sots-Romanticism’ To Rom-Com: The Strugatskys’ Monday Begins On Saturday As A Film Comedy, Yvonne Howell Jan 2015

From ‘Sots-Romanticism’ To Rom-Com: The Strugatskys’ Monday Begins On Saturday As A Film Comedy, Yvonne Howell

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

The Strugatskii brothers’ novella Ponedel’nik nachinaetsia v subbotu (Monday Begins on Saturday; 1965) imagines bright young scientists working at the cutting edge between quantum physics and folktale sorcery in a setting that was undeniably contemporary and local. I argue that the story can be best understood as ‘soc(ialist) romanticism’ – an aesthetic mode that celebrates the possibilities for individual questing and agency in late Soviet socialism. Konstantin Bromberg’s 1982 adaptation of the Strugatskiis’s story abandons both the romanticism and complexity of the novella, but, by incorporating elements of the‘youth film’, it represents a different kind of Soviet rom-com.


Du Mythe Au Dialogue: Sade Et L'Érotisme Surréaliste, Olivier M. Delers Jan 2015

Du Mythe Au Dialogue: Sade Et L'Érotisme Surréaliste, Olivier M. Delers

Languages, Literatures, and Cultures Faculty Publications

Avec la peinture, la photographie et le dessin, le surréalisme parvient progressivement à s'éloigner d'une conception trop idéologique du travail de Sade et à engager un dialogue à la fois esthétique et politique entre l'univers érotique surréaliste et la représentation sadienne d'une sexualité qui s'affranchit de toute norme sociale. Man Ray, par l'étendue et la variété des sujets qu'il traite, fait office de figure centrale dans ce mouvement du mythe au dialogue. De ses portraits « imaginaires » du Marquis, à l'illustration du roman Aline et Valcour, aux photographies de figurines en bois faisant référence à des thématiques sadiennes, …

El Papel Del Teatro En La Re-Articulación De La Experiencia Cívica: La Mirada Crítica De "Argos Teatro" En La Puesta En Escena De Aire Frío, De Virgilio Piñera, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez Jan 2015

El Papel Del Teatro En La Re-Articulación De La Experiencia Cívica: La Mirada Crítica De "Argos Teatro" En La Puesta En Escena De Aire Frío, De Virgilio Piñera, Karina Elizabeth Vázquez

Latin American, Latino and Iberian Studies Faculty Publications

Estas reflexiones tienen como propósito indagar sobre las formas en las que la actual práctica teatral cubana abre espacios de diálogo y reflexión crítica sobre la historia y los sujetos. Sin duda, las crisis de orden político y económico que han aquejado a las sociedades latinoamericanas en las últimas décadas redujeron las posibilidades materiales para la producción teatral, especialmente por fuera de los circuitos metropolitanos. No obstante, la continua y numerosa realización de propuestas escénicas de diversa índole en cuanto a prácticas, género y públicos, confirma la fuerza y la vitalidad de las prácticas teatrales en estos contextos difíciles.
