Who Bears The Burden? A Collectivist Approach To Resolving Pandemic Relief Overpayments, Allison R. Mastrangelo
Who Bears The Burden? A Collectivist Approach To Resolving Pandemic Relief Overpayments, Allison R. Mastrangelo
Marquette Benefits and Social Welfare Law Review
Unemployment rates soared when COVID-19 hit the U.S. While pandemic relief programs allowed millions to meet their basic needs, a new problem emerged: overpayments. Overpayments occur when state agencies give claimants benefits they were not entitled to. While most claimants were not at fault for these mistakes, millions are now expected to repay benefits they spent months ago. Thus far, the U.S. has prioritized fraud detection over this overpayment crisis. This misguided effort is representative of the destructive, individualistic American welfare culture at large. This note advocates for a solution rooted in collectivist European values: amending the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, …
Health Justice For Immigrants, Medha D. Makhlouf
Health Justice For Immigrants, Medha D. Makhlouf
Faculty Scholarly Works
Should universal health coverage include immigrants within the “universe?” Should federal taxpayers subsidize health insurance coverage for immigrants, even those who are undocumented? Should all immigrants be required to purchase health insurance? Although the Affordable Care Act (ACA) is conceived as a progressive project to expand access to coverage and promote equity in health care, it intentionally left out the 12.5 million undocumented immigrants living in the United States and preserved the existing restrictions on subsidized coverage for lawfully present non-citizens. In fact, it increased the disparity in access to health care between U.S. citizens and immigrants. As a result, …
Postmodern Social Control: Dividuals And Surveillance, Ernest M. Oleksy
Postmodern Social Control: Dividuals And Surveillance, Ernest M. Oleksy
The Downtown Review
As a society's foundational philosophy changes, so, too, will its forms of social control. By using the works of thinkers like Deleuze and Foucault as pivot points, the dynamic nature of social interactions and the agents to mediate those actions shall be investigated. This article includes findings from archival analysis written in a journalistic prose for simplicity of consumption.
Hanoians’ Experience: Suspending Moral Bias To Recognize Human Dimensions Of War, Maggie Norsworthy
Hanoians’ Experience: Suspending Moral Bias To Recognize Human Dimensions Of War, Maggie Norsworthy
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
Talking about, and learning lessons from The American War in Vietnam can be a process whose genuine engagement requires a suspension—even if temporary—of moral and cultural biases that are embedded in the Western mindset. This research project is one that composes military strategy, government rhetoric, and very human accounts of war in Vietnam in order to understand how people in Hanoi experience and talk about war, with an ultimate aim of making some of these stories and lessons digestible to a Western audience.
My findings discuss some key components of the North Vietnamese mindset towards the American War in Vietnam: …

Individualism In The Age Of Internationalism, Alyson Cole
Individualism In The Age Of Internationalism, Alyson Cole
Michigan Law Review
In the brief conclusion to The Empowered Self: Law and Society in the Age of Individualism, Thomas M. Franck asserts that he cannot satisfactorily summarize his book's argument. Even if it were achievable, he clarifies, he would not engage in such an endeavor, since it would "preempt the reader's autonomy and subvert his or her individual rights" (p. 278). That the author himself rejects the desirability of doing what reviewers generally do (i.e., condense and inevitably simplify complex tomes) is perhaps a somewhat awkward way to commence a discussion of his book. Nevertheless, this comment illustrates the extent to which …
Echoes Of Tomorrow: The Road To Serfdom Revisited, Alex Kozinski, David M. Schizer
Echoes Of Tomorrow: The Road To Serfdom Revisited, Alex Kozinski, David M. Schizer
Faculty Scholarship
It is now half a century since Hayek published The Road to Serfdom. Much of our population was not even born when he wrote this terse, eloquent work – and a lot has happened since. A lifetime of conflict has raged over the ideas Hayek considered in his slender volume. Unimaginably destructive weapons have been aimed at the world's population centers, menacing the very survival of our species. Even under their shadow, we have seen revolutions reacting against the abuses Hayek identified. Millions have gained their freedom. Walls that seemed permanent came crashing down. We hope they stay down.

Are Human Rights Good For International Business , Anthony D'Amato
Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business
When I take up the Nuremberg cases in my class in International Law, I find it quite difficult to convey to the students how radical those proceedings appeared to be in 1947. At that time, the contention that there should be individual accountability under international law seemed to constitute an unfounded and dangerous precedent. How could political leaders be made personally responsible for acts of state such as instituting a war (even an "aggressive" war) or engaging in wholly internal policies (the "final solution" against Jews and other minorities of their own citizens)? Indeed, the Nuremberg result seemed somewhat unprincipled …
