Law And Language: The Role Of Pragmatics In Statutory Interpretation, M. B.W. Sinclair Jan 1985

Law And Language: The Role Of Pragmatics In Statutory Interpretation, M. B.W. Sinclair

Articles by Maurer Faculty

In everyday conversation social conventions constrain our speech and aid understanding of the speech of others. These social conventions have been analyzed by the philosopher H.P. Grice and others. Professor Sinclair explores the applicability of such conventions to statutes and thereby derives a set of pragmatic rules of statutory construction. These rules explain some of the intuitions underlying "canons of construction" and their limitations and provide a basis for understanding and for criticizing some important judicial decisions.

Racketerring And The Federalization Of Crime, Craig M. Bradley Jan 1984

Racketerring And The Federalization Of Crime, Craig M. Bradley

Articles by Maurer Faculty

The federal anti-racketeering effort has grown steadily since its inception in response to the lottery schemes of the late nineteenth century. Yet, as this article demonstrates, it has done so in the absence of a clear understanding of just what the problem is, and how the ever-expanding body of legislation is going to deal with it. While not wholly critical of the efforts of the Department of Justice and the Congress to "stamp out" racketeering, Professor Bradley raises substantial questions about the government's assessments of the scope of the problem and the effectiveness of the methods employed in fighting it.
