Global Health Rights: Employing Human Rights To Develop And Implement The Framework Convention On Global Health, Lance Gable, Benjamin Mason Meier Jun 2013

Global Health Rights: Employing Human Rights To Develop And Implement The Framework Convention On Global Health, Lance Gable, Benjamin Mason Meier

Law Faculty Research Publications

The Framework Convention on Global Health (FCGH) represents an important idea for addressing the expanding array of governance challenges in global health. Proponents of the FCGH suggest that it could further the right to health through its incorporation of rights into national laws and policies, using litigation and community empowerment to advance rights claims and prominently establish the right to health as central to global health governance. Building on efforts to expand development and influence of the right to health through the implementation of the FCGH, in this article we find that human rights correspondingly holds promise in justifying the …


Biological Sex Differences In The Workplace: Reports Of The End Of Men Are Greatly Exaggerated (As Are Claims Of Women’S Continued Inequality), Kingsley R. Browne Mar 2013

Biological Sex Differences In The Workplace: Reports Of The End Of Men Are Greatly Exaggerated (As Are Claims Of Women’S Continued Inequality), Kingsley R. Browne

Law Faculty Research Publications

Common examples of perceived workplace inequality – the “glass ceiling,” the “gender gap” in compensation, and occupational segregation, among others – cannot be well understood if the explanation proffered for their existence is limited exclusively to social causes such as discrimination and sexist socialization. Males and females have, on average, different sets of talents, tastes, and interests, which cause them to select somewhat different occupations and exhibit somewhat different workplace behaviors. Some of these sex differences have biological roots. Temperamental sex differences are found in competitiveness, dominance seeking, risk taking, and nurturance, with females tending to be more “person oriented” …

Separation Of Church And State, Neutrality And Religious Freedom In American Constitutional Law, Robert A. Sedler Jan 2013

Separation Of Church And State, Neutrality And Religious Freedom In American Constitutional Law, Robert A. Sedler

Law Faculty Research Publications

Religious freedom is a favored value under the United States Constitution. The Constitution provides two-fold protection to religious freedom by means of the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause. The Establishment Clause protects against the “establishment” of an official church by the government and against governmental action “establishing religion,” while the Free Exercise clause is a textual guarantee of peoples’ right to practice their religion and to hold and act on religious beliefs, free from governmental interference. The Establishment Clause would appear to an outside observer as strongly endorsing the concept of separation of church and state, and the …

Priceless Property, Kirsten Matoy Carlson Jan 2013

Priceless Property, Kirsten Matoy Carlson

Law Faculty Research Publications

In 2011, the poorest American Indians in the United States refused to accept over one billion dollars from the United States government. They reiterated their long-held belief that money--even $1.3 billion--could not compensate them for the taking of their beloved Black Hills. A closer look at the formation of the Sioux claim to the Black Hills helps us to understand why the Sioux Nation has repeatedly rejected compensation for land taken by the United States over 100 years ago. This article seeks to understand why the Sioux view the Black Hills as priceless property by studying the formation of the …
