Jacob Burns's Generosity, June D. Wolfman Oct 1993

Jacob Burns's Generosity, June D. Wolfman

Cardozo Law Review

At Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, as in so many other places, Mr. Jacob Bums is known for his exceptionally generous financial contributions. Through the Jacob Bums Scholars Program, I had the opportunity to meet Mr. Bums on several occasions. It was clear to me, and to all of us in the program, that Mr. Bums's support of our school and its students was far more than financial. Mr. Bums supported our student body from his heart.

A History And Evaluation Of Dworkin's Theory Of Law, Rudy V. Buller Apr 1993

A History And Evaluation Of Dworkin's Theory Of Law, Rudy V. Buller

Dalhousie Law Journal

If we consider Ronald Dworkin's essay, "The Model of Rules" ', to be the first expression of his theory of law, then we have reached the 25th anniversary of that theory. And there can be little doubt that, for the most part of the last quarter century, Professor Dworkin has been the most influential legal philosopher in the English-speaking world.

Consideration And Estoppel: Problem And Panacea, Bruce Macdougall Oct 1992

Consideration And Estoppel: Problem And Panacea, Bruce Macdougall

Dalhousie Law Journal

In his book, The History of the Common Law of Contract, A.W.B. Simpson demonstrates that consideration originally seems to have meant the "matter of inducement" - the "why" of entering a promise.' He writes: "The essence of the doctrine of consideration, then, is the adoption by the common law of the idea that the legal effect of a promise should depend upon the factor or factors which motivated the promise. To decide whether a promise to do X is binding, you need to know why the promise was made."2 In modem terms, according to Simpson, a promise which lacks any …

The Democratic Intellect: The State In The Work Of Madame Justice Wilson, Philip L. Bryden Jul 1992

The Democratic Intellect: The State In The Work Of Madame Justice Wilson, Philip L. Bryden

Dalhousie Law Journal

It is a great honour to have been asked to provide an essay for this volume of reflections on the contribution Madame Justice Bertha Wilson has made to the development of law in Canada. To a certain extent, this is a matter of pride in finding my own name associated with that of the very learned and respected individuals who have set out their thoughts in this collection of articles. In the main, however, the honour comes from the opportunity to make a public statement of my own respect and admiration for Madame Justice Wilson and the significant role that …

The Jurisprudence Of Genetics, Rochelle C. Dreyfuss, Dorothy Nelkin Mar 1992

The Jurisprudence Of Genetics, Rochelle C. Dreyfuss, Dorothy Nelkin

Vanderbilt Law Review

In recent years, genetic research has ascended the list of national research priorities. From among the many weighty claims on the fisc, Congress has chosen to provide significant federal support for the Human Genome Initiative, a project aimed at mapping the complete set of genetic instructions that form the structure of inherited attributes. Geneticists anticipate that the project will disclose important new in- formation on human development and disease. Some go further. One influential scientist remarked that this work is "the ultimate answer to the commandment 'Know thyself.' ""

The decision to fund this Initiative, the largest biology project in …
