Modular Environmental Regulation, Jody Freeman, Daniel Farber
Modular Environmental Regulation, Jody Freeman, Daniel Farber
Duke Law Journal
This Article proposes a "modular" conception of environmental regulation and natural resource management as an alternative to traditional approaches. Under traditional approaches, agencies tend to operate independently, and often at cross-purposes, using relatively inflexible regulatory tools, without significant stakeholder input, and without institutional mechanisms capable of adapting to changing conditions over time. Modularity, by contrast, is characterized by a high degree of flexible coordination across government agencies as well as between public agencies and private actors; governance structures in which form follows function; a problem-solving orientation that requires flexibility; and reliance on a mix of formal and informal tools of …

Global Governance, Antitrust, And The Limits Of International Cooperation, Paul B. Stephan

The nature of competition policy & its potential for abuse are described to point out the inseparability of competition policy & trade policy, as well as difficulties that result from the less transparent nature of competition law. A review of proposals to develop international regimes to accommodate substantive competition law or allocate regulatory jurisdiction emphasizes why such regimes are likely to be unsatisfactory. …

Profits And Professionalism, Deborah Rhode
Profits And Professionalism, Deborah Rhode
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Article looks at the financial effect of ethics work. The author examines to what effect and under what circumstances “ethics pays,” and what can be done to increase the rate of return. The article studies this issue in three different contexts. First, it looks at workplace cultures and professional values. The author tries to find how the legal professional can create more organizational structures in which adhering to principles serves prudential interests. The second context is pro bono work. Here, the author looks at the pro bono benefits to, the lawyer, and legal employer, as well as the costs …
The Professionalization Of Ethics, Margaret Raymond
The Professionalization Of Ethics, Margaret Raymond
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Article looks at the importance of teaching law graduates to be ethical lawyers. The author hypothesizes that the current versions of the ethical rules and the structure of law firms have the potential to encourage the professionalization of ethics rather than connecting all practitioners to the values of professional responsibility. This Article sets out the factors that contribute to the increased professionalization of professional responsibility in large law firms. These factors are the need for lawyers to always be accessible, the pressure to specialize in a specific field, and the complexity of the ethics rules as written. The author …
The Nirvana Fallacy In Law Firm Regulation Debate, Elizabeth Chambliss
The Nirvana Fallacy In Law Firm Regulation Debate, Elizabeth Chambliss
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This Article addresses self-regulation in the legal industry. Lawyers have traditionally resisted the benefits of bureaucratic management. This Article highlights that many lawyers fear that centralized management controls with regard to regulation will undermine individual accountability. This article does not agree with that sentiment. This article uses data to suggest that centralized management, i.e. specialists in charge, may significantly improve individual accountability and compliance with professional rules. This article really reviews what it feels like are misconstrued assumptions about regulation at law firms. This Article argues that the nostalgia for an idealized collegial form has prevented legal scholars and regulators …
