Rawls, Justice, And The Income Tax, Charles R.T. O'Kelley
Scholarly Works
To the extent the primacy of justice is acknowledged in tax policy debate, such acknowledgment is coupled with the assertion that, of course, questions of justice cannot be meaningfully debated. The discussants then attempt to resolve the issue in question by use of ad hoc arguments of fairness and efficiency. The major purpose of this article is to show that not only is justice the primary issue, but that questions of justice can be meaningfully addressed. First, I will examine some of the ad hoc arguments of fairness and efficiency which have been made by proponents of a consumption base …
Society's Choice And Legal Change, Alan Watson
Society's Choice And Legal Change, Alan Watson
Scholarly Works
This Article is one of a continuing series of writings by the author on both the connection between a society and the legal rules and institutions that operate within it and on the forces that control legal change. My aim is to express more clearly than I have previously the role of lawyers and the legal tradition in changing the law, and the implications of this role for social choice theory in the realm of law.

A "Humanitarian" Approach To Individual Injury, Christina B. Whitman
Reviews
Individual injury law was once an important arena for the definition of shared values. It has increasingly become the domain of various species of systems analysts who measure legal results against external norms defined by such disciplines as economics. Although legal scholars continue to use the expectations and beliefs of ordinary men and women in fashioning rules for the redress of constitutional injuries, common-law scholars have become less willing to ground legal principles in moral consensus. There are notable exceptions. Among these is Professor Marshall Shapo, who, in two recent works, attempts to develop a legal analysis of injury that …
Language, Audience, And The Transformation Of Disputes, Lynn Mather, Barbara Yngvesson
Language, Audience, And The Transformation Of Disputes, Lynn Mather, Barbara Yngvesson
Journal Articles
This article develops an analytic framework for comparing dispute processing within a single institution and across different cultures, by focusing on the transformation of disputes. Case studies from diverse nonwestern and western settings are examined to show how disputes change as they are processed in response to the interests of various participants. Disputants, supporters, third parties, and relevant publics seek to rephrase and thus transform a dispute by imposing established categories for classifying events and relationships (narrowing), or by developing a framework which challenges established categories (expansion). Disputes may be expanded by adding new issues, by enlarging the arena of …
Legal And Medical Education Compared: Is It Time For A Flexner Report On Legal Education, Robert M. Hardaway
Legal And Medical Education Compared: Is It Time For A Flexner Report On Legal Education, Robert M. Hardaway
Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship
The purpose of this Article is to explore the common elements of legal and medical education and to compare the reform movements in each profession, with a view toward finding an explanation for the widely differing conditions that exist today in the education of each profession. For example, why is it that medical education can provide facilities and training costing up to ten times that provided law students? Why do medical schools receive outside financial support paying up to 95% of the costs of medical education while law schools are supported primarily by tuition and fees? Why do medical students …
