Decoding Richmond: Affirmative Action And The Elusive Meaning Of Constitutional Equality, Michel Rosenfeld Jun 1989

Decoding Richmond: Affirmative Action And The Elusive Meaning Of Constitutional Equality, Michel Rosenfeld

Articles

The article critiques the Supreme Court's inconsistent approach to affirmative action, particularly its adoption of the strict scrutiny test in *City of Richmond v. J.A. Croson Co.*, which has led to confusion and conflict in equal protection jurisprudence. The author argues that the strict scrutiny test is an inadequate framework for addressing affirmative action cases, advocating instead for a substantive equality approach centered on the principle of equality of opportunity. This approach would better address the complexities of systemic discrimination and its multifaceted effects, as highlighted by Justice Marshall's ecological mode of interpretation in *Croson*. The article ultimately challenges the …

Water Pollution And The Public Trust Doctrine, Ralph W. Johnson Apr 1989

Water Pollution And The Public Trust Doctrine, Ralph W. Johnson

Articles

Nonpoint pollution from irrigation return flows has become a serious national problem. Even the extraction of water for irrigation and other purposes causes pollution by reducing the assimilative capacity of the source stream or lake. Such pollution can be regulated either by the courts or the legislatures under the public trust doctrine, which antedates the prior appropriation system, and which protects fisheries and water quality. Alternatively, this pollution can be controlled under the state's police powers. The "takings" issue should not be troublesome because no one, not even prior appropriators, has or can acquire a legal right to pollute public …

Interpreting Statutes In The Regulatory State, Cass R. Sunstein Jan 1989

Interpreting Statutes In The Regulatory State, Cass R. Sunstein

Articles

Discussing the judge's role in interpreting statutes, Justice Holmes wrote that "if my fellow citizens want to go to Hell I will help them. It's my job."' Critics of the view of the courts as passive agents of the legislature claim that it understates the difficulty of interpretation, the indeterminacy of both the language and the will of the citizens, and the resulting discretion of the judge. Similarly, a vigorous debate continues over the proper role of the traditional sources of statutory interpretation - the text, the legislative history, the purpose of the enacting Congress, and the structure of the …
