F(R)Ee Expression: Reconciling Copyright & The First Amendment, Raymond Shih Ray Ku Jan 2007

F(R)Ee Expression: Reconciling Copyright & The First Amendment, Raymond Shih Ray Ku

Faculty Publications

This essay explores the relationship between copyright and free speech by critically evaluating the proposition that conflicts between the two can be eliminated because the Framers intended both to be engines for free expression. My purpose is not to set forth a comprehensive theory of copyright and free speech, but is more modest. This essay argues that while useful, reference to the Framers' intent only goes so far in avoiding conflicts between copyright and free speech, and when viewed outside of the facts presented by Harper & Row and Eldred, reliance upon the Framers' intent arguably increases such conflicts. Moreover, …

The Story Of The Court: A Narrative Analysis Of Planned Parenthood V. Casey, Nicholas Short Jan 2007

The Story Of The Court: A Narrative Analysis Of Planned Parenthood V. Casey, Nicholas Short

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

To some degree, we are all storytellers, and we tell stories for a great variety of purposes: to animate speeches, to justify our conduct, and even to explain our opinions and views. These stories, or narratives, do a lot of work in human communication, and understanding them is essential to understanding the people that use them and the message they are attempting to send.

Because of the prevalence of narratives in everyday life, and their explanatory power, it is perhaps not surprising to find narratives being used even in more staunchly "academic" or "critical" contexts, such as works of history, …


Supreme Court Voting Behavior 2005 Term, Richard G. Wilklins, Scott Worthington, John J. Nielsen, Peter J. Jenkins Jan 2007

Supreme Court Voting Behavior 2005 Term, Richard G. Wilklins, Scott Worthington, John J. Nielsen, Peter J. Jenkins

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

This Study, the twentieth in a series, tabulates and analyzes the voting behavior of the United States Supreme Court during the 2005 Term. The analysis is designed to measure whether individual Justices and the Court as a whole are voting more "conservatively," more "liberally," or about the same when compared with past Terms. As in politics, whether a judicial trend is "conservative" or "liberal" often lies in the eye of the beholder. On such a point, members of the American Civil Liberties Union and the Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies might well disagree.

This Study attempts to …

Constitutional Taking Clauses: A Proposed Typology, Benjamin Wiles Jan 2007

Constitutional Taking Clauses: A Proposed Typology, Benjamin Wiles

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

Although constitutional takings clauses have been the topic of substantial scholarship, the current literature lacks a methodological framework for understanding and analyzing takings clauses. Because there are so few cases of constitutional takings clauses to compare, applying "large n" quantitative methods to takings clauses would be difficult. Therefore, legal scholars need to use "small n" qualitative research methods.

Typologies can provide a framework for meaningful qualitative analysis. In the social sciences, typologies have been used to differentiate among different types of political regimes, electoral shifts, and economic growth strategies. These typologies can then be used to frame research questions, develop …


Has Mighty Casey Struck Out: Societal Reliance And The Supreme Court's Modern Stare Decisis Analysis, Tom Hardy Jan 2007

Has Mighty Casey Struck Out: Societal Reliance And The Supreme Court's Modern Stare Decisis Analysis, Tom Hardy

UC Law Constitutional Quarterly

The Supreme Court has recently elaborated an analysis for cases in which it is asked to overturn a precedent. This special justifications analysis involves several factors, including whether the precedent has been relied upon. In Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey, Dickerson v. United States and Lawrence v. Texas, the Court has expanded the definition of reliance to include what might be called "societal reliance," as opposed to economic reliance. Commentators have criticized this expansion of the reliance factor, some arguing that it allows the Court too much power to justify any result it favors, while others argue that …

The Generative Structure Of Aboriginal Rights, Brian Slattery Jan 2007

The Generative Structure Of Aboriginal Rights, Brian Slattery

Articles & Book Chapters

Are aboriginal rights historical rights -- rights that gained their basic form in the distant past? Or are they generative rights -- rights that, although rooted in the past, have the capacity to renew themselves, as organic entities that grow and change? Section 35(1) of the Constitution Act, 1982 provides little guidance on the point, referring ambiguously to existing aboriginal and treaty rights. In the Van der Peet case, decided in 1996, the Supreme Court of Canada characterized aboriginal rights primarily as historical rights, moulded by the customs and practices of aboriginal groups at the time of European contact, with …
