Law Schools And Other Reformatories, Norval Morris
Law Schools And Other Reformatories, Norval Morris
Dalhousie Law Journal
It is, of course, a great and undeserved honor for me to be offering this year's Horace E. Read Memorial Lecture. The slightest acquaintance with Dean Read's career reveals the range and quality of his contributions to the law, to the institutions of society and to legal education. It is a great pleasure to be playing a role in these annual memorial celebrations. His life is a model of service and scholarship to all who wish to live the life of the law at its higher levels and refutes those who see our profession as narrow or intellectually confined. Nevertheless, …

An American Enforcement Model Of Civil Process In A Canadian Landscape, Bruce H. Wildsmith
An American Enforcement Model Of Civil Process In A Canadian Landscape, Bruce H. Wildsmith
Dalhousie Law Journal
One general perspective from which to view the Anglo-American legal system shared by Canada is that proposed by Charles Darwin to explain the origin and diversity of biologically distinct species. Darwin's theory of evolution places emphasis upon the adjustment or adaptation over time of biological characteristics to environmental factors by the selection of genetically determined features enabling the most suited to their surroundings to better thrive - the so-called "survival of the fittest".' Law might usefully be thought of as bearing an analogous relationship to the social environment in which it exists and must operate. As this milieu for various …

5. Social Inquiry: Instructional Manual To Accompany 'Mark', Matthew Lipman, Ann Margaret Sharp
5. Social Inquiry: Instructional Manual To Accompany 'Mark', Matthew Lipman, Ann Margaret Sharp
Secondary School Curriculum
The task of social studies as a discipline is to focus students’ already developed thinking skills upon the conceptual foundation of the social sciences. Students will think about these underlying concepts if they can talk about them, and they will talk about what they perceive as controversial or problematic. This, then, is what Mark and Social Inquiry aim to do: to identify selected root issues in the social sciences and expose to students the conflicting concepts at the heart of each issue.
A Model For The Analysis Of The Language Of Lawyers, Robert Alex Chaim
A Model For The Analysis Of The Language Of Lawyers, Robert Alex Chaim
University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations
Lawyers have recently become a favorite target for criticism from both within and without their profession; nowhere are they more vulnerable than in their use of the English language. Whether they imitate cuttlefish by obscuring their paths with ink or simply reflect the complexity of twentieth century civilization with their language presents a question not soon to be resolved. Yet since law must serve society and since language must serve law, the questions concerning lawyers' uses and abuses of language will continue to press. Though common in casual debate, most generalizations about the language of lawyers are difficult--if not impossible-- …

4. Mark (Novel), Matthew Lipman
Secondary School Curriculum
The high school has been vandalized, and Mark is arrested at the scene of the crime. He claims he is a “victim of society.” But what is society? What forces hold it together or work to pull it apart? These are questions to which Mark and his classmates address themselves. What they seek are ways of evaluating social institutions, rules and values, so as to determine how well society is able to live up to the ideals which, at one time or another, have been set for it. They pay particular attention to the nature of law and crime, tradition, …

Hypnosis And The Law, Paul A. Dorf
Hypnosis And The Law, Paul A. Dorf
University of Baltimore Law Forum
Hypnosis and the law have a rather tedious history. Courts all over the country consistently have held inadmissible statements of a defendant, made out of court, while under hypnosis. The rationale is not too difficult to comprehend. Critics of hypnosis as an investigative tool belittle its reliability. They will present cases in which evidence gained through hypnosis turned out to be unreliable. This reluctance to acceptance still may be fostered by antiquated notions. In short, hypnosis was once looked upon as a kind of vaudeville gag, or worse, as a demonic device to control a person's mind. And while reliability …
Hypnosis And The Law, Emmanuel Levin
Hypnosis And The Law, Emmanuel Levin
University of Baltimore Law Forum
An aura of the occult surrounds the mention of hypnosis. As a result, hypnotism is rarely used in court. Although tainted by its sideshow reputation, hypnosis, when applied properly, can substantially aid both the investigation and litigation stages of law enforcement.
