Global Intersections : Critical Race Feminist Human Rights And Inter/National Black Women, Hope Lewis

Hope Lewis

Although there have been great strides in feminist human rights efforts in developing methods to prevent domestic violence and other forms of "private" violence against women, feminists still have far to go. For instance, feminists have only recently begun to acknowledge that physical, social, and economic violence against women, especially poor women of color, is perpetuated in part by top-down globalization. This Article demonstrates how Critical Race Feminist analysis, a set of approaches to legal scholarship rooted in feminist and anti-racist critical traditions, reconceptualizes the human rights problems facing Black women who migrate between the United States and Jamaica. Like …

Unexpected Gifts Of Chapter 11: The Breach Of A Director's Duty Of Loyalty Following Plan Confirmation And The Postconfirmation Jurisdiction Of Bankruptcy Courts, Daniel Bogart

Daniel B. Bogart

This article addresses the intersection of two aspects of chapter 11 jurisprudence: the fiduciary duties of directors and officers of the debtor and the post confirmation jurisdiction of bankruptcy courts. The article suggests that the normal application of fiduciary duties to confirmed debtors creates particular opportunities for directors and officers to act in a disloyal manner. The article examines two cases in particular. These include Bernstein v. Donaldson (In re Insulfoams, Inc.) and Cumberland Farms, Inc. v. Hasenotes (In re Cumberland Farms, Inc.) Traditionally, courts and commentators suggest that normal state fiduciary standards govern directors post confirmation. The article argues, …

Julie A. Nice

This essay is the foreword for a Symposium on InterSEXionality: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Queering Legal Theory.

Educational Fair Use In Copyright: Reclaiming The Right To Photocopy Freely, Ann Bartow

Ann Bartow

Copyright owners who are affirmatively engaged in diminishing the scope of educational fair use are overwhelmingly publishers, rather than authors. These publishers attack educational fair use in several different, somewhat internally inconsistent ways. First, they argue that fair use reduces the profitability of their publications, and thereby reduces monetary incentives to undertake the publication of new works. In this way they characterize educational fair use as a threat to the creation and dissemination of future works of scholarship, rather than an escape valve through which current knowledge embodied in prohibitively expensive books and periodicals can leak to the impoverished. Publishers …

Finding The Still Small Voice: The Liability Of Bankruptcy Trustees And The Work Of The National Bankruptcy Review Commission, Daniel Bogart

Daniel B. Bogart

This article examines section 3.3.2 of the Report of the National Bankruptcy Review Commission. That section proposed altering the Bankruptcy Code to clarify the law governing the liability and fiduciary obligations of trustees in bankruptcy. The article was prepared in connection with a symposium evaluating the Commission's Report held at Dickinson Law School. The Commission issued its Report on October 20, 1997, following many months of controversy, heated hearings and significant public debate. The article argues that section 3.3.2 represents a failure of the drafter to understand and delineate the two basic doctrines of fiduciary law and derived judicial immunity. …
