Defining The Limits Of Crime Control And Due Process, Richard Frase
Defining The Limits Of Crime Control And Due Process, Richard Frase
Articles
In his latest book, Hans Zeisel argues that "law enforcement, important and essential as it is, cannot by itself significantly reduce crime" (p. 15). Thus, he concludes, we should redirect our efforts toward general prevention, starting with improvements in ghetto schools. Zeisel's thesis is supported by data from his study of the disposition of felony arrests in New York City 1 and is supplemented by his assessment of the results of recent criminal justice research in other jurisdictions. Zeisel, a pioneer in the application of social science research methods to issues of law and public policy, 2 presents a wealth …

Public Sector Bargaining: Fiscal Crisis And Unilateral Change, Stephen F. Befort
Public Sector Bargaining: Fiscal Crisis And Unilateral Change, Stephen F. Befort
Articles
The brief history of public sector collective bargaining encompasses two periods of economic extreme. Collective bargaining in the public sector emerged in the 1960's and early 1970's, a period of unprecedented growth in state and local government. With normal economic restraints eased by the growth of state and local budgets, inexperienced public employers frequently offered little resistance to the demands of public sector unions. Beginning in the mid-1970's, however, the economic fortunes of state and local governments suffered a dramatic reversal. Whether viewed as a cause or an effect of the fiscal crisis, taxpayer hostility to ever-increasing budgets accompanied and …
Ethical Problems Of An International Human Rights Practice, David Weissbrodt
Ethical Problems Of An International Human Rights Practice, David Weissbrodt
Articles
Little attention has been devoted to ethical problems facing American lawyers engaged in commercial and corporate work in foreign countries or with foreign clients. IEven less attention has been paid to the professional responsibilities of lawyers engaged in an international human rights legal practice. 2 As an increas- ing number of lawyers become involved in the practice of international human rights law in the courts of the United States, in international fora, and abroad, issues will continue to arise regarding the ethical constraints on their work.3
United States Foreign Policy And Human Rights: An Overview, David Weissbrodt
United States Foreign Policy And Human Rights: An Overview, David Weissbrodt
Articles
The organizers of this symposium asked me to provide a back- ground for the present status of human rights in the foreign policy of the United States Government. They suggested that I provide a his- tory of the subject, stressing the approach of President Carter. I have written such a history, stressing the United States human rights legis- lation which was not created by President Carter, but which he found already in place when he reached the White House. Rather than recite this historical background, I think it would be more useful to look at three basic questions which might …

Limited Liability And The Corporation, Frank H. Easterbrook, Daniel R. Fischel
Limited Liability And The Corporation, Frank H. Easterbrook, Daniel R. Fischel
Articles
Limited liability is a fundamental principle of corporate law. Yet liability has never been absolutely limited. Courts occasionally allow creditors to "pierce the corporate veil," which means that shareholders must satisfy creditors' claims. "Piercing" seems to happen freakishly. Like lightning, it is rare, severe, and unprincipled. There is a consensus that the whole area of limited liability, and conversely of piercing the corporate veil, is among the most confusing in corporate law.1 We argue to the contrary that economic analysis-in particular the theory of the firm and the economics of insurance-explains the legal treatment of limited liability. Both the rules …

Affirmative Action And The Legislative History Of The Fourteenth Amendment, Eric Schnapper
Affirmative Action And The Legislative History Of The Fourteenth Amendment, Eric Schnapper
Articles
This article contends that the legislative history of the fourteenth amendment is not only relevant to but dispositive of the legal dispute over the constitutional standards applicable to race-conscious affirmative action plans. From the closing days of the Civil War until the end of civilian Reconstruction some five years later, Congress adopted a series of social welfare programs whose benefits were expressly limited to blacks. These programs were generally open to all blacks, not only to recently freed slaves, and were adopted over repeatedly expressed objections that such racially exclusive measures were unfair to whites. The race-conscious Reconstruction programs were …

Czm In California, Oregon, And Washington, Richard G. Hildreth, Ralph W. Johnson
Articles
Twenty years ago coastal zone protection was merely a gleam in the eyes of a few west coast visionaries. A flurry of state and federal laws in the late 1960s and into the 1970s changed this. Today, broad coastal management programs are in place in all three west coast states, with a special one for San Francisco Bay. Each program is unique, and at the same time shares significant qualities with the others. This article identifies the major attributes of these four programs and offers insights into the strengths and weaknesses of each. In comparing and contrasting the four programs, …
Thoughts On Teaching, Christina B. Whitman
Thoughts On Teaching, Christina B. Whitman
Articles
I teach in classrooms where, ten years ago, I sat as a student. People who were my teachers are now my colleagues. People who were my students are still my friends. The difference between teacher and student, it seems to me, is more appropriately described as progression through a life than as distinct positions in a hierarchy.
