Put Me In Coach!: Title Ix Has Taken Female Athletes Off Of The Sidelines And Into The Game, But How Can Current Progress Be Advanced In The Future?, Jennifer Passannante
Put Me In Coach!: Title Ix Has Taken Female Athletes Off Of The Sidelines And Into The Game, But How Can Current Progress Be Advanced In The Future?, Jennifer Passannante
Women’s Law Forum (2000-2006)
Title IX was originally promulgated to establish equal opportunity for both men and women in federally funded programs. Although it was originally enacted for much broader purposes, Title IX is still considered the single most important piece of legislation promoting equal opportunities for females in interscholastic and intercollegiate athletics. Unfortunately, despite Title IX, women still lag behind men in nearly "every measure of collegiate athletic equality." This article will focus specifically on Title IX's progress to date in creating athletic opportunities for women, its inadvertent consequences affecting male athletes, and means of achieving increased success in the future. Part II …

Parity/Disparity: Electoral Gender Inequality On The Tightrope Of Liberal Constitutional Traditions, Darren Rosenblum
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
Part I of this article examines Parity's strangeness to United States observers. United States sex discrimination law ignores political representation issues. United States voting rights law contains no provisions for gender inequality. Most importantly, leading United States thinkers of all stripes roundly reject quotas. Part II details the Parity debate and its relationship to French democracy. The democracies of the United States and of France share Eighteenth Century Enlightenment origins. They also share some form of universalism (labeled “neutrality” in the United States by Cass Sunstein) establishing the equality of all citizens before the law. Parity serves as a good …

Naacp V. The Attorney General: Black Community Struggle Against Police Violence, 1959-68, Jay Stewart
Journal Articles
On March 30, 1959, the U.S. Supreme Court issued two decisions which set the stage for a new era in police-community relations. In Abbate v. United States. I and Bartkus v. Illinois,2 the Court gave the U.S. Justice Department the power to prosecute police officers under federal civil rights laws for acts of racist violence - even when they were already under state or local investigation - without fear of violating states' rights. These decisions - had they been enforced - would have been welcome news at the New York headquarters of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored …

Multicultural Feminism: Assessing Systemic Fault In A Provocative Context, Camille Nelson
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
INTRODUCTION Strictly speaking, the cultural defense is really no defense at all. Instead, it is the moniker attached by defense attorneys to their advocacy which seeks to personalize the accused in one of two ways: First by injecting a reasonable doubt into the mens rea intent requirement - this would result in acquittal, or second, by contextualizing an affirmative defense, like provocation, by the provision of cultural information about the accused - this would result in mitigated sentencing. Central to defense attorneys' uses of the cultural defense is the criminal defendant's perceived "foreignness." This much has been recognized by scholars …

Restorative Justice, Slavery And The American Soul, A Policy-Oriented Approach To The Question Of Slavery Reparations By The United States, Michael F. Blevins
ExpressO
This LL.M. Intercultural Human Rights thesis (May, 2005), awarded the best student paper prize for 2005 by the Institute of Policy Sciences at Yale University (in October, 2005), after analysing past and curent issues regarding the culture wars controversy of "reparations", proposes a specific process for establishing Truth and Reconciliation regarding the legacy of slavery in the United States. The proposal recommends commissions in each Federal judicial district under the supervision of a U.S. Slavery Justice and Reconciliation Commission (USSJRC), calling for "America's 21st Century Contract with Africa and African-Americans".

Exporting U.S. Anti-Terrorism Legislation And Policies To The International Law Arena, A Comparative Study: The Effect On Other Countries' Legal Systems, Olga Kallergi
Cornell Law School Inter-University Graduate Student Conference Papers
The terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York on 9/11 set in motion a new era all over the world: an era of a world uniting against a common enemy, but also an era of insecurity and fear. Laws have been changed worldwide, nations have united against a common threat, legal theories and beliefs of centuries have been questioned, and civil liberties have been replaced by a need for national safety. Has this worldwide effort worked? Is our world a better place now that we are all fighting the same enemy? Did we learn from our past …

Cornell Law School Berger International Speaker Papers
In the summer of 2004, the United States Supreme Court ruled on three cases involving individuals detained as "enemy combatants." Given the issues of Presidential power, habeas corpus and individual rights involved, there was a lot of speculation about the historical importance of the decisions. This presentation examines these three decisions and what they teach us about the Supreme Court and government in the 21st century.
