An awareness of the awesome threat-both to our health and to our economy-posed by a polluted atmosphere has long been widespread.

The Consent Problem In Wiretapping & Eavesdropping: Surreptitious Monitoring With The Consent Of A Participant In A Conversation, Kent Greenawalt Jan 1968

The Consent Problem In Wiretapping & Eavesdropping: Surreptitious Monitoring With The Consent Of A Participant In A Conversation, Kent Greenawalt

Faculty Scholarship

The extent to which American society should permit wiretapping and electronic eavesdropping has been considered by judges, legislators and scholars for many years, although this consideration has yet to result in legal rules that respond rationally and consistently to the conflicting demands of privacy and effective law enforcement. Constitutional analysis has, until very recently, relied on concepts like "physical invasion of a constitutionally protected area," producing distinctions with little relation to underlying social values; statutory restrictions on wiretapping have been much more severe than those imposed on eavesdropping, though the latter, particularly in light of the rapidly developing technology, poses …


The Truth-In-Negotiations Act – An Examination Of Defective Pricing In Government Contracts, Michael J. Graetz Jan 1968

The Truth-In-Negotiations Act – An Examination Of Defective Pricing In Government Contracts, Michael J. Graetz

Faculty Scholarship

Charges of excessive profitmaking on government contracts have issued from the Senate floor and the nation's press and have provided the impetus for recent congressional investigations and proposals for remedial legislation. Profiteering by government contractors is a problem of potentially enormous dimensions since purchases by the federal government total more than seventy-seven billion dollars – over ten per cent of the gross national product. Because the greatest part of these purchases are made by the Department of Defense, congressional action aimed at minimizing excessive profits has focused upon Defense Department procurement activities under the Armed Services Procurement Act (ASPA).


On Interpreting The Ethiopian Penal Code, Peter L. Strauss Jan 1968

On Interpreting The Ethiopian Penal Code, Peter L. Strauss

Faculty Scholarship

The aim of this article is to set out and discuss some general principles of interpreting the Ethiopian Penal Code – that is to say, of using it. Even now, ten years after it came into effect, many people have difficulty in understanding and using the Penal Code in a straightforward way. It seems complex, and many of its fundamental conceptions are unfamiliar to Ethiopian lawyers. This article, discussing at length how the code is built, may help reduce its apparent complexity and thus facilitate its day-to-day application.

More On The Equivalence Of Tariffs And Quotas, Jagdish N. Bhagwati Jan 1968

More On The Equivalence Of Tariffs And Quotas, Jagdish N. Bhagwati

Faculty Scholarship

In an earlier paper on the equivalence of tariffs and quotas [1], I argued that this equivalence – defined such that a tariff would lead to a level of imports which, if alternatively set as a quota, would generate the same implicit tariff – followed from the assumptions of competitive domestic production, supply of imports, and holding of quotas. This universality of competitiveness sufficed to guarantee equivalence, as defined. It was further argued that a departure from these assumptions could, in general, destroy this equivalence and several such departures were analyzed: (1) perfect competition in domestic production replaced by pure …

Electoral College - Its Defects And Dangers, The, John D. Feerick Jan 1968

Electoral College - Its Defects And Dangers, The, John D. Feerick

Faculty Scholarship

In a few months we will witness the operation of the electoral college system of electing the President and Vice President of the United States. Due partly to the appearance of George C. Wallace's American Independent Party,' the 1968 election could be decided in the House of Representatives, where each state has one vote regardless of its population. The election seems certain to point up the perils in our present system. Although our system of electing the President is now under scrutiny by Congress, reform does not appear imminent. As in the case of presidential inability, a tragedy or near …

The Student As University Resident, William W. Van Alstyne Jan 1968

The Student As University Resident, William W. Van Alstyne

Faculty Scholarship

This examination argues that the position that a student’s rights are determined by whether he lives on or off-campus is unraveled by the institution’s position as a state actor. This article disposes of the notion that the university is equivalent to a landlord in property and contract rights and discusses how this distinction affects students’ rights.


Ethical Issues In Biological Engineering, Martin P. Golding Jan 1968

Ethical Issues In Biological Engineering, Martin P. Golding

Faculty Scholarship

In this article I shall discuss some of the ethical issues that arise in connection with social programs of biological engineering. My treatment falls, roughly, into two parts. After presenting some preliminary background and discussing the limitations of this paper, I turn to certain general questions about social programs and our obligations to the future in sections II through IV. I then pass on to specific considerations of programs of biological engineering in sections V through VII, although there are allusions to them in earlier sections. In both parts, some issues are gone into detail, while others are merely brought …

The Judicial Trend Toward Student Academic Freedom, William W. Van Alstyne

This analysis references the growing likelihood that even “private” colleges and universities may be viewed as state actors due to these institutions growing reliance on public funds and their performance of what is often considered a public function.

The Demise Of The Right-Privilege Distinction In Constitutional Law, William W. Van Alstyne Jan 1968

The Demise Of The Right-Privilege Distinction In Constitutional Law, William W. Van Alstyne

Faculty Scholarship

The right-privilege distinction, as it appeared in an early statement by Justice Holmes, has long hampered individuals within the public sector in protecting themselves against arbitrary governmental action. In this article Professor Van Alstyne reviews the uses and misuses to which the "privilege" concept has been put and then examines those doctrines whose flanking attacks have gradually eroded its efficacy. But none of these doctrines comes to grips with Holmes' basic idea of a "privilege" to which substantive due process is inapplicable. Applying Holmes' own jurisprudence, the author argues that the concept of "privilege" is today no longer viable, and …
