Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg Apr 1991

Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg

Cardozo Law Review

The article examines the complicity of the Vichy legal system in the persecution of Jews during World War II, arguing that French lawyers and judges actively contributed to Nazi objectives through legalistic rhetoric and formalism. By focusing on individual cases and interpretive debates, the legal profession avoided addressing the moral and ethical implications of their actions, enabling the enforcement of oppressive policies. The analysis critiques the failure of legal professionalism and the dangers of prioritizing formalism over human rights.

Social Science And The Courts: The Role Of Amicus Curiae Briefs, Ronald G. Roesch, Stephen L. Golding, Valerie P. Hans, N. Dickon Reppucci

Cornell Law Faculty Publications

Social scientists have increasingly become involved in the submission of amicus curiae or "friend of the court" briefs in legal cases being decided by state and federal courts. This increase has triggered considerable debate about the use of briefs to communicate relevant social science research. This article evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of various methods of summarizing social science research for the courts. It also reviews the procedures for submitting briefs developed by the American Psychology-Law Society which, in collaboration with the American Psychological Association, has submitted its first brief in Maryland v. Craig, a case recently decided by …

Mengele's Birthmark: The Nuremberg Code In United States Courts, George J. Annas Jan 1991

Mengele's Birthmark: The Nuremberg Code In United States Courts, George J. Annas

Faculty Scholarship

Usually its justification is simply assumed, and vague notions of progress or national emergency are suggested as sufficient rationales. The United States, a society dedicated to both progress and human rights, has been profoundly ambivalent about human experimentation. On the one hand, we have consistently argued in our ethical codes that the rights and welfare of research subjects must be protected; on the other hand, we have consistently used perceived emergencies, both national and medical, as an excuse to jettison individual rights and welfare …
