[Excerpt] "In recent years, law enforcement officials have honed a new technique for fighting the "War on Drugs:" the suspicionless police sweep of stations and vehicles involved in interstate mass transportation. Single officers or groups of officers approach unfortunate individuals in busses, trains, stations and airline terminals. A targeted traveller is requested to show identification and tickets, explain the purpose of his or her travels, and finally, at times, to consent to a luggage search. As long as "a reasonable person would understand that he or she could refuse to cooperate," the encounter between the law-enforcement official and the traveller …

Book Review: Policing Japan, Daniel H. Foote
Book Reviews
Professor Setsuo Miyazawa's Policing in Japan: A Study on Making Crime represents a very valuable addition to the growing body of English-language works on the Japanese police. This is the first such observational study of the police by a Japanese scholar and the only study to examine the behavior of Japanese detectives. Miyazawa, a professor at Kobe University and one of the leading legal sociologists in Japan, has buttressed his own observations with an extensive, and revealing, questionnaire survey of police attitudes.

Like the Anita Hill/Clarence Thomas hearings a few months before, the Rodney King beating, the acquittal of the Los Angeles police officers who "restrained" him and the subsequent civil unrest in Los Angeles flashed Race across the national consciousness and the gaze of American culture momentarily froze there. Pieces of everyday racial dynamics briefly seemed clear, then faded from view, replaced by presidential politics and natural disasters.
This Essay examines in more depth what was exposed during the momentary national focus on Rodney King. Two main events – the acquittal of the police officers who beat King and the civil …
Lawyers At The Prison Gates: Organizational Structure And Corrections Advocacy, Susan Sturm
Lawyers At The Prison Gates: Organizational Structure And Corrections Advocacy, Susan Sturm
Faculty Scholarship
The rise of the public interest law movement ushered in an era of intense debate over the best way to provide legal representation to those unable to afford private counsel. This debate has involved two related dimensions of public interest representation. First, advocates and observers of public interest practice disagree over the proper role of lawyers acting on behalf of poor and underrepresented clients. They offer competing visions of representation spanning a continuum, from providing equal access to the courts for as many poor people as possible, to attacking the causes and effects of poverty and powerlessness.
The second dimension …
Televised Executions And The Constitution: Recognizing A First Amendment Right Of Access To State Executions, John Bessler
Televised Executions And The Constitution: Recognizing A First Amendment Right Of Access To State Executions, John Bessler
All Faculty Scholarship
This article examines the history of public and private executions and the passage of private execution laws. It concludes that existing laws restricting media access to executions – and requiring private executions that exclude television cameras – are unconstitutional. The author examines existing statutory schemes which curtail media access and prohibit the filming of executions, discusses legal challenges to such laws, and explores freedom of the press jurisprudence. In particular, the article analyzes First Amendment case law and right-of-access cases. The author also discusses the Eighth Amendment's relationship to First Amendment case law in the area of media coverage of …
Legacy And Future Of Corrections Litigation, Susan P. Sturm
Legacy And Future Of Corrections Litigation, Susan P. Sturm
Faculty Scholarship
This Article attempts to provide a framework for assessing the legacy and future of public interest advocacy in one particular area – corrections. It documents a shift from a test case to an implementation model of advocacy, and urges the development of effective remedial strategies as a method of linking litigation to a broader strategy of correctional advocacy.
I have chosen to focus on this particular institutional context for several reasons. On a pragmatic level, the Edna McConnell Clark Foundation, which for the last twenty years has been the primary source of funding for corrections litigation by private, nonprofit organizations, …
