Mississippi River Stories: Lessons From A Century Of Unnatural Disasters, Sandra B. Zellmer, Christine A. Klein

Faculty Law Review Articles

In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the nation pondered how a relatively weak Category 3 storm could have destroyed an entire region. Few appreciated the extent to which a flawed federal water development policy transformed this apparently natural disaster into a "manmade" disaster; fewer still appreciated how the disaster was the predictable, and indeed predicted, sequel to almost a century of similar disasters. This Article focuses upon three such stories: the Great Flood of 1927, the Midwest Flood of 1993, and Hurricanes Katrina and Rita of 2005. Taken together, the stories reveal important lessons, including the inadequacy of engineered flood …

Might The Fact That 90% Of Americans Live Within 15 Miles Of A Wal-Mart Help Achieve Universal Health Care?, William M. Sage

Faculty Scholarship

The subject of this Essay is the retail medical clinic movement. Retail medical clinics-a few hundred exist at the time of this publication-are typically located in national or regional chains of discount stores, pharmacies, and supermarkets. 1 News articles describing this new phenomenon in American health care tend to examine its viability as a business. The symposium for which this Essay was prepared is devoted to the "Massachusetts Health Plan," that state's pioneering effort (in the current political cycle) to achieve near-universal health insurance for its residents. Accordingly, this Essay situates the retail medical clinic movement in overall "health policy," …

Demolition By Neglect: Repairing Buildings By Repairing Legislation, Anna Martin

Georgetown Law Historic Preservation Papers Series

One of the biggest problems today facing communities with historic preservation ordinances is delinquent owners who don’t have the will or the finances to maintain their historic properties and landmarks. Historic preservation law plays an important role in building a sense of patriotism and community togetherness, fostering education and providing incentives for aesthetically pleasing architecture. When residents can identify with a community, this creates a dialogue and sense of belonging. There are also environmental and psychological impacts of preserving old buildings, since human beings are positively affected by their surroundings when they feel a "sense of place." When buildings in …

Out Of The Bottle: The Genie Of Direct Democracy, K.K. Duvivier

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

The initiative process is out of the bottle, and it is unlikely citizens will try to recork their genie anytime soon. While the process has proven to be subject to the same corrupting influences of money and special interests as the legislative process, citizen voters are motivated to begin using the initiative itself to regain its integrity.
