Public Law And Social Human Rights, Areto A. Imoukuede
Public Law And Social Human Rights, Areto A. Imoukuede
Faculty Books and Book Contributions
This paper argues that public education is an international human right that the U.S. ought to recognize and protect. Recognizing a right to public education would correct a major inconsistency in U.S. law by bringing education rights doctrine more in line with international human rights law. This piece discusses how current U.S. education rights doctrine is inconsistent with U.S. tradition and legal precedent. It then demonstrates how international law recognizes public education as a fundamental duty of government before arguing for why the U.S. is obligated to follow international law regarding the right to public education.

Goldstein V. California: Sound, Fury, And Significance, Robert H. Abrams
Faculty Books and Book Contributions
Some cases in the Supreme Court involve controversies of enormous immediate importance with little potential for effecting doctrinal constitutional change. Other cases seem of minimal moment, but call into question basic doctrinal issues whose resolution might have broad and serious effects. Goldstein v. California falls into the second category. The obvious and dramatic limitation that Goldstein places on the scope of the Copyright Act may have obscured its more subtle revisions of constitutional doctrine in other areas. For Goldstein not only defines the spheres of federal and state competence for copyright legislation; it also reinterprets precedents on preemption and supremacy …
