The Jurisprudence Of Affirmative Action: Equality In Abstraction And Application, Alec Anthony Izzo Jan 1992

The Jurisprudence Of Affirmative Action: Equality In Abstraction And Application, Alec Anthony Izzo

St. Thomas Law Review

Analyzing the results in affirmative action cases decided in the last fourteen years tends to invite specious observations. For example, it is true that only 50% of the affirmative action plans reviewed by the Supreme Court withstand constitutional attack, while 80% withstand federal statutory attack. Additionally, more than half of the Court's affirmative action opinions have been authored by Justice Brennan and in each case the challenged plan has been approved. Further, two cases evaluating the constitutional merits of affirmative action were written by Justice Powell, whose opinions resulted in findings of unconstitutionality, and whose language echoes long beyond his …

The Natural Law Of Rhythm And Equality, John W. Ragsdale Jr Jan 1990

The Natural Law Of Rhythm And Equality, John W. Ragsdale Jr

Faculty Works

The quest for natural law can easily seem futile to the secularist, and the legal terrain beyond human institutions has often been abandoned to the theologians and the supernaturalists. Most contemporary legal philosophers tend to focus on law as process, on legal positivism and legal realism, on the relativity of values or on the legal masking of class, race or gender interests. This piece will not do direct battle with these philosophies, all of which may have internal integrity and legitimacy within their chosen spheres. Instead, this piece will reexplore the possibility and propriety of linking the reality of law …

Book Review Of Passion: An Essay On Personality , Richard F. Devlin Frsc Jan 1985

Book Review Of Passion: An Essay On Personality , Richard F. Devlin Frsc

Articles, Book Chapters, & Popular Press

Passion is a cogently structured, compel Jingly argued and seductively enthralling masterpiece which, in years to come, will undoubtedly stand out as an inspirational source for many who seek social transformation. Unger's style, in this essay at least, is lucid and inviting. Substantively, Passion demonstrates not only the depth of his penetrating intellect but also his command of an array of' disciplines. Unger's polymathy is all the more impressive when we remember that ours is an era in which idiosyncratic specialization is the norm.


The Warren Court And Desegregation, Robert L. Carter Dec 1968

The Warren Court And Desegregation, Robert L. Carter

Michigan Law Review

When Chief Justice ·warren assumed his post in October 1953, the underpinnings of the "separate but equal" concept had become unmoored beyond restoration. Full-scale argument on the validity of apartheid in public education was only weeks away, and the portent of change in the constitutional doctrine governing American race relations was unmistakable. Although the groundwork had been carefully prepared for the Chief Justice's announcement in Brown v. Board of Education that fundamental principles forbade racial segregation in the nation's public schools, the decision, when it was delivered on :May 17, 1954, was more than a break with the past. In …
