Why Mandatory Hiv Testing Of Pregnant Women And Newborns Must Fail: A Legal, Historical, And Public Policy Analysis Special Issue: Mandatory Hiv Testing Of Newborns And Their Mothers, Elizabeth B. Cooper
Why Mandatory Hiv Testing Of Pregnant Women And Newborns Must Fail: A Legal, Historical, And Public Policy Analysis Special Issue: Mandatory Hiv Testing Of Newborns And Their Mothers, Elizabeth B. Cooper
Faculty Scholarship
The debate surrounding mandatory HIV testing of newborns and pregnant women requires an understanding of the historical context of women in the epidemic. Although the epidemic first was recognized in gay men in 1981, anecdotal reports reveal that women already were dying from what seems to have been HIV-related symptomatology. Indeed, in Gena Corea's book, The Invisible Epidemic, we learn that, as early as 1981, not insignificant numbers of drug-using and former drug-using women were falling ill and not recovering from conditions that normally are not fatal, including bacterial pneumonia. Yet, because we did not necessarily expect these populations to …
Community Culture And Tradition: Maintaining Male Dominance In Conservative Institutions, Christine M. Venter
Community Culture And Tradition: Maintaining Male Dominance In Conservative Institutions, Christine M. Venter
Journal Articles
"The freer women are to share their gifts with society and to assume leadership in society, the better are the prospects for the entire human community to progress in wisdom, justice and dignified living ... " So argued Mary Ann Glendon, the Vatican delegate to the Fourth World Conference on Women in September, 1995. While Glendon's point is well taken, in many societies, including the Catholic Church which Glendon represented at the Conference, women often do not have the opportunity to choose their roles and share their gifts and talents with society in the manner they deem most appropriate. In …
Confronting Expectations: Women In The Legal Academy, Christine Haight Farley
Confronting Expectations: Women In The Legal Academy, Christine Haight Farley
Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals
A seemingly insurmountable barrier to women's success in legal academia is the way they are perceived. Numerous studies have shown that women are perceived as less competent than men and that the same work is evaluated more critically when it is thought to have been done by a woman than by a man. This problem exists in all aspects of life, but it is especially acute for women in professional roles, such as academics. Legal academia, however, seems to be particularly resistant to viewing women as equally competent. The article presents original empirical research that shows that student evaluations of …

Turning Labor Into Love: Housework And The Law, Katharine B. Silbaugh
Turning Labor Into Love: Housework And The Law, Katharine B. Silbaugh
Faculty Scholarship
Women's unpaid domestic labor produces tremendous economic value. In the United States, women spend more of their productive work hours in unpaid labor than in paid labor, and the credible estimates of the economic value of unpaid labor range from the equivalent of 24% to 60% of the U.S. Gross Domestic Product ("GDP"). Given its economic value and its significant role in the working lives of women, it is surprising that the topic of home labor has received no systematic examination by legal scholars. This Article undertakes such an examination. It concludes that a wide range of legal doctrines treat …

Susan Smith And Other Homicidal Mothers-In Search Of The Punishment That Fits The Crime, Janet Ford
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The legal system should consider unique circumstances when sentencing mothers who kill their children, focusing on mitigating factors such as mental state, abuse history, and societal pressures, rather than applying uniform punishments.

While we believe that the work of healing our cultural dyslexia is partly cognitive, in and through this paper we have tried to enact the experiential aspect. We may approach the entrances of the borderlands through reading and thinking, however we believe that the borderlands is a phenomenon of living, a phenomenon of well-intentioned people interacting in deliberate and thoughtful ways with those who are simultaneously like and unlike us/them. The borderlands require that we bring our critical faculties to bear on life's experiences, but, more often than not, we must suspend them in favor of more charitable and affiliative …

An Introduction To “Mandatory Hiv Screening Of Newborns: A Child’S Welfare In Conflict With Its Mother’S Constitutional Rights?” - False Dichotomies Make Bad Law., Paris R. Baldacci
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article examines the contentious issue of mandatory HIV screening of newborns, highlighting the false dichotomy often presented in the debate between the welfare of the child and the constitutional rights of the mother. It argues that this dichotomy oversimplifies the complex legal, medical, and ethical considerations involved, leading to ineffective public policy. The article emphasizes the need for a more holistic approach that balances medical interventions with respect for individual rights and addresses the broader societal and structural factors affecting HIV-infected mothers and their children.

Custody And Conduct: How The Law Fails Lesbian And Gay Parents And Their Children, Julie Shapiro
Custody And Conduct: How The Law Fails Lesbian And Gay Parents And Their Children, Julie Shapiro
Faculty Articles
When parents dispute child custody, courts determine their rights by using a "best interests of the child" analysis. In this context, courts consider a host of factors, including parental sexuality. When considering the suitability of custody for a lesbian or gay parents, most courts employ a nexus test - one that requires a showing of a nexus between parental sexuality and the well-being of the child. A smaller number continue to use a harsher test that disqualifies lesbian and gay parents under a per se rule. This article argues that closer examination reveals that even the apparently more liberal nexus …

An Argument For Universal Pediatric Hiv Testing, Counseling And Treatment, Colin Crawford
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that mandatory pediatric HIV testing, counseling, and treatment are essential to address a public health emergency, overriding constitutional concerns. The author, Colin Crawford, asserts that early detection and treatment significantly improve the lives of HIV-positive children, making it a compelling state interest that should take precedence over privacy and autonomy concerns.

Equal Rights-Compatibility Of Family And Career-Legal Comparison: East Germany (Gdr) And Federal Republic Of Germany Today, Anita Grandke
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article examines the evolution of gender equality in East Germany from the post-WWII era through the 1990 unification with West Germany, highlighting how East Germany's progressive laws promoting women's rights were rolled back after unification, leading to significant setbacks for women in employment, family life, and legal protections.
Reach And Substance Of The Principle Of Equal Treatment In Social Security Law Under European Community And German Constitutional Law, Ursula Rust
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article examines the principle of equal treatment in social security law under European Community (EC) law and German constitutional law, highlighting their differences in scope and application. While both legal systems prohibit sex-based discrimination, EC law, primarily through Directive 79/7, applies narrowly to specific risks and allows significant exceptions, particularly for survivor and family benefits. In contrast, German constitutional law provides broader protections under the Basic Law, which directly binds the legislature and judiciary to ensure equal rights, though it also struggles with addressing indirect discrimination effectively.
The Mark Of Cain: No Second Chance For Teachers Convicted Of Sex Offenses Against Students, Eric J. Kuperman
The Mark Of Cain: No Second Chance For Teachers Convicted Of Sex Offenses Against Students, Eric J. Kuperman
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that teachers convicted of sex offenses against students should be subject to a national registration and notification system, akin to Megan's Law, due to the inadequacy of current systems in preventing these individuals from continuing to teach and offending again. The author emphasizes the need to protect children from sexual predators in educational settings, highlighting the failure of schools and courts to effectively address the issue.
