Welcome To The Junta: The Erosion Of Civilian Control Of The U.S. Military, Charles J. Dunlap Jr. Jan 1994

Welcome To The Junta: The Erosion Of Civilian Control Of The U.S. Military, Charles J. Dunlap Jr.

Faculty Scholarship

Colonel Dunlap argues that civilian control of the United States military is eroding as a result of seemingly disparate phenomena. Colonel Dunlap first examines the American tradition of antimilitarism, which he believes no longer effectively restrains the modern armed forces. He then analyzes the effects of the military's elevated public support, the evolving nature of the leadership elite, and the increasing vulnerability of constitutional safeguards to military influence. In an effort to assess the current predicament, Colonel Dunlap introduces the new paradigm of postmodern militarism that challenges traditional notions of civilian control. Noting the potential long-term implications of excessive military …

Contract Failure In The Market For Health Services, Clark C. Havighurst Jan 1994

Contract Failure In The Market For Health Services, Clark C. Havighurst

Faculty Scholarship

Professor Havighurst examines the claim that the United States is overspending on health care. Finding much of the evidence inconclusive, he nevertheless finds one clear cause of allocative inefficiency to be unwise tax subsidies for the purchase of private health insurance. He avers, however, that a more serious problem is the market's failure to offer consumers a full range of health care choices, specifically low-cost options. Here, he makes the novel claim that overspending on health care is attributable to the failure of private contracts to specify the precise character and scope of the health services to be provided and …

Rediscovering Conservatism: Burkean Political Theory & Constitutional Interpretation, Ernest A. Young Jan 1994

Rediscovering Conservatism: Burkean Political Theory & Constitutional Interpretation, Ernest A. Young

Faculty Scholarship

Recent decisions of the Rehnquist Court--particularly the Court's 1992 decision in Planned Parenthood v. Casey--have caused many to question widely-held assumptions about the meaning of judicial conservatism. In this article, Ernest Young argues that the views of the modern judicial "conservatives" such as Judge Robert Bork and Justice Antonin Scalia are antithetical to classical conservative political theory, as exemplified by the writings and speeches of the eighteenth-century British philosopher/politician Edmund Burke. In particular, Mr. Young argues that strict adherence to the original understanding of the Constitution, judicial deference to democratic majorities, and formulation of legal directives as bright-line rules are …

A Fundamental Inquiry Into The Statutory Rulemaking Process Of Private Legislatures, Steven L. Schwarcz Jan 1994

A Fundamental Inquiry Into The Statutory Rulemaking Process Of Private Legislatures, Steven L. Schwarcz

Faculty Scholarship

This Article examines the private rulemaking proces under which uniform state laws are formulated. It suggests that deficiencies may arise from the failure of rulemakers to step back and ask fundamental questions about the consequences of the rules being proposed and sets forth a framework for asking these questions. As part of this framework, the Article identifies and explores the meaning of underlying statutory policies, such as consistency and fairness. Although the Article's focus is on private rulemaking, it's conclusions are shown to be relevent to public rulemaking and possibly even to judicial decisionmaking.
