Fusion Folk: A Comment On Law And Music, Carol Weisbrod
Fusion Folk: A Comment On Law And Music, Carol Weisbrod
Faculty Articles and Papers
This article is, in its most general sense, a critique of the idea of autonomy which is common to the understanding of both law and music. The idea of the autonomy of law, as an enterprise with its own rules and its own conventions, is parallel to a view of the composer working alone, uninfluenced by what has gone before, creating masterpieces free of cultural contexts. The stress here is on the point that both build on previous material, official and unofficial, and that in both there are latitudes and boundaries, ways in which the legal interpreter is free and …

The model fits the data for four of our six case types. …

Faculty Articles and Papers
This article examines the evolution of the electric utility industry in three parts: I. Discovery, Innovation, and Expansion; II. Increased Demand, Improved Technology, and Increased Regulation; and III. Diversification, Regionalism, and Deregulation.
Part I begins with an examination of how the electric industry came to be, starting with incandescent light. The power industry at this time consisted of three segments that still exist today; generation, transmission, and distribution. Municipalities initially issued franchises and charters to power cities, which resulted in fierce competition to provide power at the lowest rates. Through 1880 to 1900, electricity-use increased rapidly, attracting private companies to …
