The Illusion Of Efficiency In Workers' Compensation "Reform", Martha T. Mccluskey
The Illusion Of Efficiency In Workers' Compensation "Reform", Martha T. Mccluskey
Journal Articles
From the late 1980s to 1990s, most states enacted major revisions to their workers' compensation systems. These law changes aim to restrict benefits for injured workers in response to perceptions that rising workers' compensation insurance costs had reached crisis levels by the late 1980s. This article analyzes the main features of these benefit reforms, and shows how these reforms reveal the problems of the predominant economic efficiency rationales underlying recent retrenchment of social welfare programs in general.

Reconstituting Haudenosaunee Law, Sovereignty, And Governance, Errol E. Meidinger
Journal Articles
This article introduces a symposium issue on "Law, Sovereignty, and Tribal Governance: The Iroquois Confederacy" that grew out of a conference at the University at Buffalo Law School in 1998. The symposium was heavily attended and debated by the indigenous peoples of the region. The article argues that core lessons of the conference included the requirement to understand and implement sovereignty as tool of cultural survival, particularly in its insistence on a land base; that sovereignty has been adopted as a central concept by Indian peoples both because it provides a necessary social bulwark and because it facilitates a discursive …
