Privatization And Political Accountability, Jack M. Beermann Jun 2001

Privatization And Political Accountability, Jack M. Beermann

Faculty Scholarship

This article is an attempt to draw some general connections between privatization and political accountability. Political accountability is to be understood as the amenability of a government policy or activity to monitoring through the political process. Although the main focus of the article is to examine different types of privatization, specifically exploring the ramifications for political accountability of each type, I also engage in some speculation as to whether there are there situations in which privatization might raise constitutional concerns related to the degree to which the particular privatization reduces political accountability for the actions or decisions of the newly …


Policy Of Family Privacy: Uncovering The Bias In Favor Of Nuclear Families In American Consitutional Law And Policy Reform, The, Richard F. Storrow Jun 2001

Policy Of Family Privacy: Uncovering The Bias In Favor Of Nuclear Families In American Consitutional Law And Policy Reform, The, Richard F. Storrow

Missouri Law Review

This Article re-examines the landmark cases comprising the backbone of the family privacy doctrine and discloses, within the folds of their rhetoric of individual liberty, a policy of privacy promoting nuclear families. The re-examination of the landmark cases in Part II demonstrates that the policy of family privacy is to foster the creation and longevity of traditional, nuclear families. Part II illustrates how this policy has become more clearly articulated over time through the Court’s restrictive interpretation of fundamental rights and its recent decision in Troxel v. Granville, the much-awaited ruling on grandparental visitation rights. In Part III, this Article …

Alternatives In Fighting Street Gangs: Criminal Anti-Gang Ordinances V. Public Nuisance Laws, Silvia Perez Jan 2001

Alternatives In Fighting Street Gangs: Criminal Anti-Gang Ordinances V. Public Nuisance Laws, Silvia Perez

St. Thomas Law Review

Gang violence continues to be a problem in today's society. Gangs have spread beyond our inner cities into this nation's rural areas, parks and streets. The United States spends $20 billion a year treating the victims of gunshot wounds. "Gang violence is not only tearing at our moral culture and killing our children, it's also picking our pockets." Gangs exist in 94% of major American cities. Former President Clinton found the 1998 statistics released by the Bureau of Justice Statistics and the National Centre for Education Statistics unacceptable and urged Congress to "fight the trend by approving anti-gang and youth …


The Undersea World Of Foreign Relations Federalism, Edward T. Swaine Jan 2001

The Undersea World Of Foreign Relations Federalism, Edward T. Swaine

GW Law Faculty Publications & Other Works

Uncertainty surrounds the field of foreign relations federalism. The Supreme Court has left lower courts to decide significant issues with little guidance, the Constitution provides little direct instruction, and the tension between national and state authority creates policy arguments on both sides based on uncertain conceptions on injury to these interests. Scholars should seize the opportunity to explore new functions and values for states in today’s globalized world.

Too Young To Understand--Extending Equal Access To All Children In Public Schools Regardless Of Age, David Woodcock Jan 2001

Too Young To Understand--Extending Equal Access To All Children In Public Schools Regardless Of Age, David Woodcock

St. Thomas Law Review

Finding the right mix of church and state is not an easy task for our society. This is especially true in our public schools. Everyday, millions of elementary school students meet after school in public school facilities to participate in Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Cub Scouts, Brownies, and 4-H Clubs. These organizations share the goals of preparing young boys and girls to grow into men and women of good morals and character. Religious organizations that share these goals, however, are denied access to school facilities simply because they have a religious point of view. School districts have told children that …


The Three Nixon Cases And Their Parallels In Malaysia, Myint Zan Jan 2001

The Three Nixon Cases And Their Parallels In Malaysia, Myint Zan

St. Thomas Law Review

During the period from 1974 to 1982 the Supreme Court of the United States decided three cases in which the late Richard M. Nixon, the 37th President of the United States of America was involved as an appellant/ petitioner. All three cases decided by the United States Supreme Court bore the name of Richard Nixon in the title of the cases. This Article will attempt to discern some of the legal and constitutional issues which have arisen from these "Three Nixon" cases. Some of the issues in these cases would inevitably have arisen out of issues that are peculiar to …
