Attorney General's Remarks, Benjamin N. Cardozo School Of Law, November 15, 1992, William P. Barr

Cardozo Law Review

While the modem Attorney General is active in a broad array of policy decisions and legal matters, this evening we are concerned only with what was once the core of the Attorney General's duties: legal interpretation within the executive branch. First, I would like to trace the evolution of the office of Attorney General from part-time legal advisor for the new government to head of a major department involved in making policy across a broad range of subjects. Second, I want to discuss the Attorney General's role in interpreting the law, both in rendering legal advice to the executive branch …


Ways To Think About The Unitary Executive: A Comment On Approaches To Government Structure, Michael Fitts Oct 1993

Ways To Think About The Unitary Executive: A Comment On Approaches To Government Structure, Michael Fitts

Cardozo Law Review

This emphasis has been particularly evident in the examination of the appropriate structure and distribution of responsibility for administrative decision making, in general, and presidential authority versus agency autonomy, in particular.

Abduction From The Seraglio: Feminist Methodologies And The Logic Of Imagination, Jeanne L. Schroeder Nov 1991

Abduction From The Seraglio: Feminist Methodologies And The Logic Of Imagination, Jeanne L. Schroeder

Articles

The article critiques the "different voice" theory in feminist jurisprudence, arguing that it risks reinforcing gender stereotypes and lacks a normative framework to challenge dominant masculinist perspectives. It also examines MacKinnon's contributions to feminist legal theory, highlighting both her strengths, such as her recognition of the need for a comprehensive alternative to masculinist theories, and her limitations, particularly her failure to develop a robust methodology for hypothesis verification. The article emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between hypothesis formation and proof in jurisprudence and advocates for a more nuanced approach to gender jurisprudence that avoids essentialism and integrates psychological insights without …

Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg Apr 1991

Legal Rhetoric Under Stress: The Example Of Vichy, Richard H. Weisberg

Cardozo Law Review

The article examines the complicity of the Vichy legal system in the persecution of Jews during World War II, arguing that French lawyers and judges actively contributed to Nazi objectives through legalistic rhetoric and formalism. By focusing on individual cases and interpretive debates, the legal profession avoided addressing the moral and ethical implications of their actions, enabling the enforcement of oppressive policies. The analysis critiques the failure of legal professionalism and the dangers of prioritizing formalism over human rights.
