Survey Of The Federal Government On Supervisor Practices In Employment Of People With Disabilities, Susanne M. Bruyere, William Erickson, Richard L. Horne
Susanne Bruyère
In 1999, the Presidential Task Force on the Employment of Adults with Disabilities (PTFEAD) funded Cornell University to conduct a survey of federal sector HR and EEO representatives regarding their experience implementing the employment disability nondiscrimination requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990(ADA) and the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. One of the recommendations from this research was to conduct a follow-up study of federal agency supervisors and managers about their experience in accommodation and employment of persons with disabilities in the federal sector, and in addition to inquire about their awareness of the series of Executive …

Reconstructing The Dormant Commerce Clause Doctrine, Brannon P. Denning
Reconstructing The Dormant Commerce Clause Doctrine, Brannon P. Denning
Brannon P. Denning
This article argues that the historic incoherence of the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine reflects the Court's perpetual creation and discarding of decision rules designed to implement a constitutional command that had never been clarified. Drawing on the work of Mitch Berman and Kim Roosevelt, I articulate a constitutional command--prohibition of interstate commerce likely to destabilize political union--derived from the Constitution, then suggest decision rules that would implement that command. While some of my conclusions map onto current doctrine, I recommend that the Court abandon so-called "balancing" since it does not make sense as a decision rule, given the constitutional command …
Widow's Pension And Gender Equality: Runkee V. United Kingdom, Mel Cousins
Widow's Pension And Gender Equality: Runkee V. United Kingdom, Mel Cousins
Mel Cousins
The long litigation saga involving the compatibility of UK legislation on survivors’ benefits appears to have come to a (not particularly glorious) end with the European Court of Human Rights’ (ECtHR) decision in Runkee and White v United Kingdom. This case involved a challenge to the compatibility of national law on the payment of widows’ pensions solely to women, similar to that considered by the House of Lords in Hooper and the ECtHR came to a similar conclusion holding that UK law was not incompatible with the European Convention on Human Rights.

Mega-Cases, Diversity, And The Elusive Goal Of Workplace Reform, Nancy Levit
Nancy Levit
Employment discrimination class action suits are part of a new wave of structural reform litigation. Like their predecessors - the school desegregation cases in the 1950s, the housing and voting inequalities cases in the 1960s, prison conditions suits in the 1970s, and environmental lawsuits since then - these are systemic challenges to major institutions affecting large segments of the public. This article explores the effectiveness of various employment discrimination remedies in reforming workplace cultures, promoting corporate accountability, and implementing real diversity.
