Labor Law - Authority Of National Labor Relations Board To Require Reaffirmation Of Non-Communist Affidavit, Richard Z. Rosenfeld Dec 1954

Labor Law - Authority Of National Labor Relations Board To Require Reaffirmation Of Non-Communist Affidavit, Richard Z. Rosenfeld

Michigan Law Review

Section 9(h) of title I of the Labor-Management Relations Act requires that officers of unions which desire access to NLRB facilities file non-Communist affidavits with the Board. During the effective period of appellee unions' compliance with this requirement, the Board referred certain affidavits to the Department of Justice for investigation. After the suspected officers had refused to testify concerning the truth or falsity of their affidavits in subsequent grand jury proceedings the Board issued a Notice and Order requiring the officers to reaffirm the truth of the prior affidavits and to attest to non-membership in the Communist Party since filing …


Segregation In Public Education: The Decline Of Plessy V. Ferguson, Paul G. Kauper Jun 1954

Segregation In Public Education: The Decline Of Plessy V. Ferguson, Paul G. Kauper

Michigan Law Review

In the landmark case of Plessy v. Ferguson decided in 1896, the Supreme Court of the United States gave its sanction to the "separate but equal" doctrine in the interpretation of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. More particularly, the Court held that a state statute requiring racial segregation in railway service did not result in a denial of the equal protection of the laws. This decision did not go unchallenged. Kentucky-born Justice John Harlan remonstrated in a dissenting opinion of extraordinary force. Crying out like a lone voice in the wilderness he predicted that the judgment declared …


Constitutional Law - Censorship Of Obscence Literature, Donald M. Wilkinson, Jr. S.Ed. Feb 1954

Constitutional Law - Censorship Of Obscence Literature, Donald M. Wilkinson, Jr. S.Ed.

Michigan Law Review

The right to a free expression of ideas, without interference from governmental authorities, is inherent in the very nature of a democracy. On the other hand, it is also clear that the greater interests of the state at large will conflict with certain forms of expression, and in such circumstances obviously the former must prevail. It is the purpose of this comment to discuss the constitutional limitations on the governmental suppression of literature on grounds of obscenity.

The Political And Social Factor In Legal Interpretation, Roscoe Pound Mar 1947

The Political And Social Factor In Legal Interpretation, Roscoe Pound

Michigan Law Review

We may think of the task of the legal order as one of maintaining the inner order of a politically organized society. The term "law" is not uncommonly used to include the task and the agencies by which we endeavor to achieve it. Thus it is used (as by sociologists and by the historical jurists) for all social control, and, by those who limit the term to a highly specialized social control through politically organized society, for (1) the legal order, the regime of adjusting relations and ordering conduct by systematic employment of the force of a state (the type …

Legal Techniques And Political Ideologies: A Comparative Study, Alexander H. Pekelis Feb 1943

Legal Techniques And Political Ideologies: A Comparative Study, Alexander H. Pekelis

Michigan Law Review

The problem with which we are going to deal is one of comparative law, a discipline probably even more illusory than legal science itself. A body of laws represents in itself neither a social reality nor a social ideal. One of the difficulties that every historian faces in trying to reconstruct a period of the past with the help of legal monuments is due to the great variety of relations existing between legal rules and social reality. So, e.g., legal monuments generally contain in an inextricable confusion at least two contradictory types of rules: rules which are a simple restatement …


If Men Were Angels: A Review, E. Blythe Stason Oct 1942

If Men Were Angels: A Review, E. Blythe Stason

Michigan Law Review

Such a book is Jerome Frank's new volume, If Men Were Angels. Indeed in some of its chapters its vigor approaches violence, a fact which adds spice to the reading.


Constitutional Law - State Control Of Interstate Migration Of Indigents, Edward W. Adams Mar 1942

Constitutional Law - State Control Of Interstate Migration Of Indigents, Edward W. Adams

Michigan Law Review

The interstate migration of persons presents the United States with one of its most acute economic and social problems and carries in its wake a series of significant legal questions. Of paramount importance is the constitutional question whether the migration of indigents is subject to state control. To lend understanding to this problem, attention will be called first to the basic economic and social urges underlying interstate migration and second to the position of the indigent as defined by traditional legal concepts. To complete the discussion, suggestions will be offered for corrective federal legislation.
