Senator Chuck Grassley And Judicial Confirmations, Carl Tobias
Senator Chuck Grassley And Judicial Confirmations, Carl Tobias
Law Faculty Publications
Iowa Republican Senator Chuck Grassley finished his second term as Chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee with the early January 2019 adjournment of the 115th Congress. He was the first nonlawyer to lead the august committee over almost 200 years. A core panel duty is moving judicial nominees through the confirmation process, which helps senators discharge their constitutional advice and consent responsibility. Because the Chair plays an integral role—Grassley fulfilled this obligation in a critical, albeit controversial, manner—and because his service as Chair has ended, it is crucial to evaluate how the lawmaker discharged that important responsibility.

Convergence And Conflation In Online Copyright, Christopher A. Cotropia, James Gibson
Law Faculty Publications
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act is showing its age. Enacted in 1998, the DMCA succeeded in its initial goal of bringing clarity to wildly inconsistent judicial standards for online copyright infringement. But as time has passed, the Act has been overtaken—not by developments in technology, but by developments in copyright’s case law. Those cases are no longer as divergent as they were in the last millennium. Instead, over time the judicial standards and the statutory standards have converged, to the point where the differences between them are few.
At first glance, this convergence seems unproblematic. After all, uniformity was the …
The Code Of Capital. How The Law Creates Wealth And Inequality. Pistor, Katharina. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2019 [Book Review], Dana Neacsu
Law Faculty Publications
In “The Little King,” Salman Rushdie’s prize-winning take on corruption and the opioid crisis, as published in The New Yorker (July 29, 2019), the law is described as “an ass,” but a useful one:
"The law is useful, in fact. It tells you who is the correct person you need to convince. Otherwise, you can waste money convincing people who don’t have the stamp. Waste not, want not. We are like this only. We know what is the oil that greases the wheels" (Rushdie, 59, 2019).
The Code of Capital. How the Law Creates Wealth and Inequality is a prize-winning …

Il Était Une Fois… Analyse Juridique Des Contes De Fées, Marine Ranouil And Nicolas Dissaux, Eds. Paris: Dalloz, 2018. [Book Review], Dana Neacsu
Law Faculty Publications
Il était une fois… Once Upon a Time, edited by Marine Ranouil and Nicholas Dissaux, inhabits the most tempting theory of Gramscian hegemony: Law codifies the people’s desires, especially those imparted to them through books; through the written word. Reading it brought to mind Bertrand Barère and his explanation of the French Revolution of 1789. Books did it all because they brought enlightenment into all classes of society. This seems pretentious and partially inaccurate. The Revolution was also ignited by filth and hunger, which made the masses part with their innate fear of death and bravely fight for such …
