Instilling An Appreciation Of Legal Ethics And Professional Responsibility In First-Year Legal Research And Writing Courses, Beth Cohen Jan 1995

Instilling An Appreciation Of Legal Ethics And Professional Responsibility In First-Year Legal Research And Writing Courses, Beth Cohen

Faculty Scholarship

The Author suggests that the First-year legal research and writing classes provide the logical forum to remind students of the importance of honesty and integrity both to their work and to the profession and to society as a whole. The Author believes that teachers would do well to take advantage of this unique opportunity to provide such lessons early and often and more importantly, as part of the regular legal research and writing curriculum.

Rediscovering Client Decisionmaking: The Impact Of Role-Playing, Mary Zulack Jan 1995

Rediscovering Client Decisionmaking: The Impact Of Role-Playing, Mary Zulack

Faculty Scholarship

There are more things of importance to representing clients than are disclosed through a typical interview or counseling session, even a session undertaken by a lawyer earnestly attempting to hear rather than ignore the client. We lawyers are often vividly aware, when we pause to contemplate the point, that we do not know all we should about our clients. We may also believe that we have great gulfs of knowledge and experience to cross in order to hear and understand any particular client. Further, we fear that our ability to cross these gulfs is limited by the human, and lawyerly, …


For The Love Of Lacan, Jacques Derrida Jan 1995

For The Love Of Lacan, Jacques Derrida

Cardozo Law Review

What wouldn't Lacan have said!

What won't he have said!

This is not a question, it is an exclamation: to get my voice right, to find the appropriate tone, before beginning to try out this idiomatic conjunction of negation, denial [denegation], conditional and future in the past, my hypothesis being that these grammars, now in succession, now simultaneously, play the role of a screen and of a mirror in the modalities of the with, as they do in the modalities of the since [depuis] that will have determined Lacan's relationship to the philosophers-to certain philosophers. These few reflections on temporal …


Lacanian Ethics And The Desire For Law, David S. Caudill Jan 1995

Lacanian Ethics And The Desire For Law, David S. Caudill

Cardozo Law Review

American Critical Legal Studies has its own antinomies, its own indeterminacies, such that it is difficult to talk as though it is a unified position or movement, or even a single methodology or strategy. Generally, however, those who are suspicious of Critical Legal Studies have, from the beginning, aSked how the critical theorist explains his or her own ideology, and the answer is often that ideology is inescapable. Thus the critical project is about disclosure of ideology, not about the claim to know the truth outside ideology.


Rethinking The Beyond Of The Real, Drucilla Cornell Jan 1995

Rethinking The Beyond Of The Real, Drucilla Cornell

Cardozo Law Review

It is commonplace to note that Sigmund Freud "discovered" another reality. This reality is the reality of the psychic life. The meaning of its unconscious underpinnings surfaces in the other world of dreams and in the slips of the tongue that indicate a beyond to the day-to-day life given to us by conventions of our form of life. Certainly, Freud always returns us to the Jenseits, the other side, the beyond of the unconscious, which leaves its traces and marks on so-called "real objects," but which, on the other hand, can never be simplistically identified with them. An obvious …


A Unique And Different Subject Of Law, Alain Pottage Jan 1995

A Unique And Different Subject Of Law, Alain Pottage

Cardozo Law Review

Might an idiom of love be instituted in law? This question is posed by Luce Irigaray's ethics of sexual difference, which, in the guise of a critique of law, depicts the semantic or symbolic structure of a law that articulates an ethical relation of love-not love as caritatis, but love as eros. This implausible association of love and law seeks to institute an immediate and idiomatic relation within the axiopoietic order of law. Irigaray's J'aime d toi prescribes a set of basic rights which law-in its role as cultural tutor-might institute as the coordinates of a new model …
