The Uniform Commercial Code Comes Of Age, Roy L. Steinheimer Jr.

Michigan Law Review

Once upon a time back in the elegant and well-ordered Victorian age, a new organization known as the National Conference of State Boards of Commissioners for Promoting Uniformity of Legislation in the United States undertook the task of drafting a Negotiable Instruments Law (NIL) for adoption by the legislatures of the various states. The law was finally prepared and recommended by the Commissioners for adoption in 1896, and, by December of 1900, fifteen states had adopted it. In that month, Dean Ames, of the Harvard Law School, loosed a blast at this new law in an article in the Harvard …

Form Of Citation Of Japanese Legal Materials, Dan Fenno Henderson, Andy M. Ichiki

Washington Law Review

The chief purpose of a citation, aside from furnishing assurance of scholarly discipline, is to make the author's sources available to others. Citation style rules should strive to do this uniformly, briefly, and clearly. For the sake of uniformity in citing Japanese language sources it is suggested that writers use the manual published by the Harvard Law Review Association, A Uniform System of Citation (11th ed. 1967), whenever its rules can be directly applied, or whenever they can be readily adapted to citation of Japanese sources. New rules are suggested below only for those relatively few instances where they are …

The End Of Empire, Fred D. Schneider

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

Within the space of a generation, the British Empire has disintegrated in a way that appears extraordinary, even in retrospect. "How marvelous it all is," Lord Rosebery exclaimed at the end of the nineteenth century. If marvelous in its growth, the Empire has been no less significant in the manner of its passing.

The decline of great empires exerts a peculiar fascination over the mind of the historian; indeed, more has been written about the fall of Rome than about the death of any other political entity. Diverse and contradictory theories are advanced to explain a complex historical phenomenon, and …

Headnotes, Journal Editor

Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law

It is a pleasure for us to present the first issue of the Vanderbilt International to the Vanderbilt community. The present style and content of V.I. is hybrid -- lying somewhere between a scholarly journal and a popular news magazine, attempting to please the casual reader as well as the student of international affairs. While this first issue has a very definite legal bent, we plan to be as ecumenical as we can in the future, printing material by economists, historians and political scientists as well as by leaders from outside the academic community.

In its present form, V.I. is …

Legal Research--Computer Retrieval Of Statutory Law And Decisional Law, David T. Moody

Vanderbilt Law Review

Legal research presently involves a considerable amount of any lawyer's time and efforts largely because it is a slow and tedious process. Searching for a pertinent legal point can prove to be time-consuming and often fruitless. Moreover, it is here that chance plays one of its largest roles in the law.' An important legal point may exist,yet the researcher may fail to find it although he exercises a great degree of diligence. All lawyers must recognize this problem and the fact that it is becoming more acute with the passage of time. Something needs to be done to facilitate legal …

Uniform Crime Reports, Peter P. Lejins

Michigan Law Review

The Uniform Crime Reports are-both nationally and internationally- an extremely important statistical series, and an invitation by the Michigan Law Review to comment on this annual compilation is very much appreciated: This writer has felt for some time that the recent frequent statements on the Uniform Crime Reports in the daily press and some professional journals have created a considerable amount of unnecessary confusion. This opportunity to analyze the issues involved is therefore most gratifying.

A Critical View Of The Uniform Crime Reports, Sophia M. Robison

Michigan Law Review

No one would deny that the FBI performs a vital function in investigating, identifying, and tracking down suspects who may endanger the life, liberty, and property of Americans. However, this writer feels that the Uniform Crime Reports published by the FBI should be subjected to a very critical analysis. Of primary concern are the indiscriminate acceptance of the official data by legislators and social science investigators and the doubtful inferences which a frightened public draws from news releases proclaiming that "the U.S. is sitting on a seething volcano of crime."
