Why Practice Management?, Gary A. Munneke Oct 2007

Why Practice Management?, Gary A. Munneke

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Today, lawyers must regard the practice of law as a business, inasmuch as they earn their livelihood from the practice of law. The marketplace for legal services is a competitive one; not only has the size of the profession more than quadrupled in the past 50 years, but other professions and businesses have also begun to perform services traditionally restricted to lawyers. For example, accounting firms have encroached on tax litigation, banks in the trusts and estates area, and financial planners in estate planning. In a series of cases, the United States Supreme Court has made it clear that lawyers …

State-Corporate Crime And The Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, Alan S. Bruce, Paul J. Becker Oct 2007

State-Corporate Crime And The Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant, Alan S. Bruce, Paul J. Becker

Sociology, Anthropology, and Social Work Faculty Publications

While criminologists have for some time examined state and corporate crime as separate entities, the concept of state-corporate crime highlighting joint government and private corporate action causing criminal harm is a recent area of study with relatively few published case studies (Matthews and Kauzlarich, 2000). This paper focuses on state-corporate crime at the Paducah Gaseous Diffusion Plant (PGDP) in Paducah, Kentucky, and contributes to the study of state-corporate crime in three ways: (1) it adds a new case study to a field in which there are few published accounts, (2) it assesses the utility of Kauzlarich and Kramer’s (1998) integrated …


Availability Cascades And Risk Regulation, Timur Kuran Oct 2007

Availability Cascades And Risk Regulation, Timur Kuran

Public Law and Legal Theory Working Papers

An availability cascade is a self-reinforcing process of collective belief formation by which an expressed perception triggers a chain reaction that gives the perception increasing plausibility through its rising availability in public discourse. The driving mechanism involves a combination of informational and reputational motives: Individuals endorse the perception partly by learning from the apparent beliefs of others and partly by distorting their public responses in the interest of maintaining social acceptance. Availability entrepreneurs-- activists who manipulate the content of public discourse-strive to trigger availability cascades likely to advance their agendas. Their availability campaigns may yield social benefits, but sometimes they …


Can The Iraqi Special Tribunal Further Reconciliation In Iraq?, Anna Triponel Oct 2007

Can The Iraqi Special Tribunal Further Reconciliation In Iraq?, Anna Triponel

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

This article aims to answer the question of whether the Iraqi Special Tribunal has the potential to reconcile the Iraqi community with its past, and if so, whether this potential has been fulfilled.

The first section looks at lessons learned from previous international criminal tribunals to assess their potential to reconcile a community with its past. In theory, international criminal law has the opportunity to impact diverse goals crucial for the reconciliation process, namely installing a sense of justice in victims, playing a deterrent effect on wrongdoers, providing a statement of the facts, acknowledging officially what happened, and providing an …


Corporate Social Accountability Standards In The Global Supply Chain: Resistance, Reconsideration, And Resolution In China, Li-Wen Lin Oct 2007

Corporate Social Accountability Standards In The Global Supply Chain: Resistance, Reconsideration, And Resolution In China, Li-Wen Lin

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

This Article provides a view on corporate social accountability standards from a Chinese perspective, a slightly different angle from that of legal scholars in the United States. The legal literature in the United States typically only focuses on the importance and effectiveness of corporate social accountability standards to regulate the conduct of multinational companies in the era of globalization. However, the views of the outsourced companies in the developing countries, on which the multinational companies impose the standards, have seldom received attention. This Article tries to fill this void by examining the situation in China. As shown in this Article, …


The Dysfunctional Progeny Of Eugenics: Autonomy Gone Awol, Matthew D. Martin Iii Oct 2007

The Dysfunctional Progeny Of Eugenics: Autonomy Gone Awol, Matthew D. Martin Iii

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The article examines the ethical and legal implications of state-mandated sterilization, tracing its evolution from eugenic practices in the early 20th century to modern forms of reproductive control. It argues that such policies, whether justified by eugenics or population control, consistently violate human rights and raise significant moral concerns. The analysis critiques the Supreme Court's decision in Buck v. Bell as a landmark example of judicial endorsement of pseudoscientific discrimination, while also exploring contemporary issues like prenatal genetic testing and coercive family planning policies.


Can The Australian Model Be Applied To U.S. Moral Rights Legislation?, Joan Pattarozzi Oct 2007

Can The Australian Model Be Applied To U.S. Moral Rights Legislation?, Joan Pattarozzi

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note argues that the U.S. should adopt a more comprehensive framework for moral rights in copyright law, drawing inspiration from Australia's balanced approach, to better protect authors' personal and reputational interests while addressing concerns about market disruption and litigation. It highlights the U.S.'s current emphasis on economic rights, its limited implementation of moral rights under the Visual Artists Rights Act (VARA), and the potential for Australia's model to serve as a template for U.S. legislation.


The Failure Of The United Nations Convention On Contracts For The International Sale Of Goods And A Proposal For A New Uniform Global Code In International Sales Law, Christopher Sheaffer Oct 2007

The Failure Of The United Nations Convention On Contracts For The International Sale Of Goods And A Proposal For A New Uniform Global Code In International Sales Law, Christopher Sheaffer

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note critiques the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) for failing to achieve its goal of creating a uniform international sales law due to ambiguities, inconsistent judicial interpretations, and language discrepancies. It proposes the development of a new Global Code to address these shortcomings, emphasizing the need for clearer guidelines, a unified interpretation framework, and mechanisms to ensure consistency across jurisdictions.


A Final Plea For "Death With Dignity": A Proposal For The Modification And Approval Of The Assisted Dying For The Terminally Ill Bill In The United Kingdom, Lindsay Pfeffer Oct 2007

A Final Plea For "Death With Dignity": A Proposal For The Modification And Approval Of The Assisted Dying For The Terminally Ill Bill In The United Kingdom, Lindsay Pfeffer

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

Increasing respect for personal autonomy in health-related decision-making, major alterations in the assisted suicide laws of other European countries (especially Switzerland and the Netherlands), and the rising popularity of Swiss suicide clinics have introduced the need for the British legislature to reevaluate the United Kingdom's stance on assisted suicide and to adjust medical practices to contemporary social needs. The introduction and obstruction of a bill in the House of Lords for the legalization of physician-assisted suicide for terminally ill individuals has provoked opposition from the British medical community and serious concern on behalf of members of the government regarding the …


The Economic Incentive Behind The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, Dana Gale Oct 2007

The Economic Incentive Behind The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act, Dana Gale

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

This piece examines the difference between the stated and underlying purposes of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006. While the Act's proponents cite the protection of family values and the prevention of money laundering and terrorism as the motivation for the legislation, the underlying purpose of the Act appears to be economic in nature. The number of Internet gamblers has grown in recent years to over twenty million, with as many as 80 percent of players residing in the United States. Further, because of federal laws prohibiting domestic, remote gambling, most, if not all, Internet gambling companies operate …
