Deciding When Hate Is A Crime: The First Amendment, Police Detectives, And The Identification Of Hate Crime, Jeannine Bell
Deciding When Hate Is A Crime: The First Amendment, Police Detectives, And The Identification Of Hate Crime, Jeannine Bell
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This Article adds to the debate a story of how hate crime law is enforced, based on the experiences of the police detectives who are required to enforce hate crime law. Part I of this Article provides a brief description of hate crime laws and argues that the police play an important role in the determination of how hate crime law is enforced and ultimately, whether defendants’ First Amendment rights will be respected. Part II describes critics’ concerns about defendants’ First Amendment rights and the narrow constitutional line that enforcers of hate crime law must walk between enforcing hate crime …
U.S. Plant Variety Protection: Sound And Fury...?, Mark D. Janis, Jay P. Kesan
U.S. Plant Variety Protection: Sound And Fury...?, Mark D. Janis, Jay P. Kesan
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This Article offers a critical reassessment of U.S. approaches to intellectual property protection for plant innovation. Three developments make this reassessment timely. First, the Supreme Court has finally confirmed that utility patent claims to plants and seeds satisfy the 35 U.S.C. Section 101 subject matter eligibility requirement. Plant innovation in the United States is now subject to utility patent protection, as well as concurrent protection under the Plant Variety Protection Act (PVPA). However, little work has been done to explain the role of PVPA protection in a system of concurrent protection, or to develop a coherent policy vision within which …

The National Wildlife Refuge System And The Hallmarks Of Modern Organic Legislation, Robert L. Fischman
The National Wildlife Refuge System And The Hallmarks Of Modern Organic Legislation, Robert L. Fischman
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article explores the origins and precise meaning of the term "organic act," which is widely used in public land law. The evolution in the meaning of the term reflects larger shifts in the role of legislation in public resource management. The article illustrates this with an analysis of the 1997 Refuge Improvement Act, a substantial revision of the charter for the Refuge System and the first major statute governing public land management enacted since the 1970s.
The Refuge System's "dominant use" regime is an important model for sustainable resource management. The article describes this regime in the context of …

Stumbling To Johannesburg: The United States' Haphazard Progress Toward Sustainable Forestry Law, Robert L. Fischman
Stumbling To Johannesburg: The United States' Haphazard Progress Toward Sustainable Forestry Law, Robert L. Fischman
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This Article addresses how well forestry law in the United States promotes sustainable development, with special attention to the trends of the past decade. The role of law in shaping forest management decisions has been a contentious issue in this recent period, and forestry has been at the forefront of public concern about sustainability of natural resource management generally. Therefore, the problems and opportunities for forestry law to promote sustainable development are indications of the weaknesses and strengths of the overall U.S. legal regime.
Constitutional Issues In Information Privacy, Fred H. Cate, Robert E. Litan
Constitutional Issues In Information Privacy, Fred H. Cate, Robert E. Litan
Articles by Maurer Faculty
The U.S. Constitution has been largely ignored in the recent flurry of privacy laws and regulations designed to protect personal information from incursion by the private sector, despite the fact that many of these enactments and efforts to enforce them significantly implicate the First Amendment. Questions about the role of the Constitution have assumed new importance in the aftermath of the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Efforts to identify and bring to justice the perpetrators and to protect against future terrorist attacks, while threatening to weaken constitutional protections against government intrusions into personal …

Principles For Protecting Privacy, Fred H. Cate
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article addresses health privacy in the broader context of other areas of recent privacy activity, in an effort to discover what people should have learned in trying to identify those principles that should undergrid regulatory efforts to protect privacy. Increasingly, the dominant trend in recent and pending privacy legislation is to invest consumers with near absolute control over information in the marketplace. - irrespective of whether the information is, or could be, used to cause harm. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act privacy rules wholly ignore the concept of harm and the constitutional requirement of targeting restriction on …
Baker's Promise, Equal Protection, And The Modern Redistricting Revolution: A Plea For Rationality, Luis Fuentes-Rohwer
Baker's Promise, Equal Protection, And The Modern Redistricting Revolution: A Plea For Rationality, Luis Fuentes-Rohwer
Articles by Maurer Faculty
The conventional wisdom contends that Baker v. Carr did not set down a standard for lower courts to follow. This Article responds to this position. It reaches three conclusions. First, it argues the implicit promise of Baker v. Carr pointed toward a loose, flexible rationality standard for deciding redistricting controversies. Under this approach, states were given much room to enact redistricting plans in accordance to their states' particular needs. Second, the lower courts applied precisely this standard in litigation in the wake of Baker, and did so quite capably. This conclusion responds to those who exhort the imposition of a …

The Case Of The Foreign Lawyer: Internationalizing The U.S. Legal Profession, Carole Silver
The Case Of The Foreign Lawyer: Internationalizing The U.S. Legal Profession, Carole Silver
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article contributes a new perspective to existing scholarship on internationalization of the legal profession by focusing on the increasing presence of foreign lawyers in U.S. law schools and law firms. It analyzes the interaction between foreign-educated lawyers and the legal profession in the U.S. based upon two sources of information: first, a series of interviews with foreign-educated lawyers and U.S. law firm hiring partners regarding experiences in law school and in firms, and second, a database comprised of biographical information for more than 300 foreign-educated lawyers who were working in New York during 1999 and 2000.
The various roles …

Conflict Of Economic Laws: From Sovereignty To Substance, Hannah Buxbaum
Conflict Of Economic Laws: From Sovereignty To Substance, Hannah Buxbaum
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This article examines how the globalization of economic markets, and attendant changes in international regulatory strategies, challenge the traditional framework of private international law. It examines a variety of developments in the areas of securities, antitrust, and bankruptcy law, analyzing the ways in which they undermine the conception of regulatory power as grounded in the territorial authority of sovereign states. Specifically, the article argues that these changes reflect a shift in conflicts jurisprudence away from the traditional jurisdiction-selecting model and toward a substance-based model, in which a state's economic policy interests can be protected simply through assurance that the substance …
