Affirmative Action: A Robin Hood Hiring In Federally Aided Construction, Frederick W. Lambert
Affirmative Action: A Robin Hood Hiring In Federally Aided Construction, Frederick W. Lambert
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Executive Order 11246, promulgated in September 1965, requires that all federal financial aid applicants incorporate into construction contracts and sub-contracts the same guarantees of equal employment opportunity that are required of parties in a direct contractual relationship with the government. Each contractor must "take affirmative action to ensure that [job] applicants are employed… and treated during employment" in a nondiscriminatory manner and must guarantee that his subcontractors will also take such affirmative action. Responsibility for enforcement of the Order was delegated to the newly-established Office of Federal Contract Compliance (OFCC). The OFCC drafted guidelines 6 requiring contractors and major subcontractors …
The Warren Court And Desegregation, Robert L. Carter
The Warren Court And Desegregation, Robert L. Carter
Michigan Law Review
When Chief Justice ·warren assumed his post in October 1953, the underpinnings of the "separate but equal" concept had become unmoored beyond restoration. Full-scale argument on the validity of apartheid in public education was only weeks away, and the portent of change in the constitutional doctrine governing American race relations was unmistakable. Although the groundwork had been carefully prepared for the Chief Justice's announcement in Brown v. Board of Education that fundamental principles forbade racial segregation in the nation's public schools, the decision, when it was delivered on :May 17, 1954, was more than a break with the past. In …
Reapportionment: Success Story Of The Warren Court, Robert B. Mckay
Reapportionment: Success Story Of The Warren Court, Robert B. Mckay
Michigan Law Review
The fascinating thing about this major engagement of the Warren Court is that the principal decisions came to the Court late-1962 and after. Although these decisions precipitated a revolution in the concept and practice of legislative representation at every level of government, they were implemented quickly and with surprisingly little dislocation. The following remarks are intended to report the fact of that adjustment and to explain, to the extent the phenomenon is now understandable, why the change was so easily accomplished. When compared with the delay in public acceptance of decisions in the other areas mentioned above, the success of …

International Law, National Tribunals And The Rights Of Aliens: The Latin American Experience, Frank G. Dawson
International Law, National Tribunals And The Rights Of Aliens: The Latin American Experience, Frank G. Dawson
Vanderbilt Law Review
Latin America is today undergoing a profound technological revolution for which the United States is largely responsible, and which is transforming the continent in a manner and at a pace never envisioned by nineteenth century alien entrepreneurs. Communication and transportation media developed within the last fifty years have created new demands for, and dependencies upon, the commercial products and luxuries of the mechanized world and have precipitated demands for radical change in outmoded economic and political patterns. This has inspired programs for economic integration on the international level, and, within individual nations, for industrialization and product diversification to limit dependence …

Sex Discrimination In Employment Under Title Vii Of The Civil Rights Act Of 1964, Anthony R. Mansfield
Sex Discrimination In Employment Under Title Vii Of The Civil Rights Act Of 1964, Anthony R. Mansfield
Vanderbilt Law Review
On July 2, 1964, President Johnson signed into law the Civil Rights Act of 1964,' the most far-reaching civil rights legislation in history.Much has been written about the act, but almost without exception the writers have been concerned with the ban of discrimination in employment on the basis of race or color. But the most radical and troublesome characteristic of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act is its outlawing of employment discrimination based on sex. It is the purpose of this note to examine this largely ignored aspect of the act. The inquiry will first examine the regulation of …
Unconstitutional Uncertainty: A Study Of The Use Of Detainers, Donald E. Shelton
Unconstitutional Uncertainty: A Study Of The Use Of Detainers, Donald E. Shelton
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The question is why a prosecutor would go through the motions of asking a warden to notify him of the availability of a prisoner that he never intends to take into custody. The first answer is that it is common practice for many prosecutors to automatically file a detainer upon learning that an accused is imprisoned elsewhere. This decision is made without any regard to their eventual decision to prosecute. But the more basic answer, and the reason why this practice of automatic filing of detainers has developed, lies in the effects a detainer has upon the prisoner.

Third Party Plaintiffs In Civil Rights Damage Actions, Robert M. Didrick
Third Party Plaintiffs In Civil Rights Damage Actions, Robert M. Didrick
Cleveland State Law Review
This article will discuss the question of whether third parties may bring an action for damages against those who deprive another of his civil rights. The related question, resulting from the second cause of action in the Napolitano case, of whether one may recover for the mental anguish caused by the denial of another's civil rights will also be considered. Although the question is concerned with damage actions, cases in which injunctive relief was asked are helpful in studying the principle involved. Relief has been granted in these cases much more readily than in damage actions, possibly because the equitable …
