Going Global: An International Human Rights Approach To Russian Lgbtq+ Law And Practices, Michael Goodyear Apr 2021

Going Global: An International Human Rights Approach To Russian Lgbtq+ Law And Practices, Michael Goodyear

Articles & Chapters

The current treatment of LGBTQ+ people in Russia is characterized by a discriminatory withholding of rights and political and societal isolation and endangerment. While this situation is well-documented, the legal analyses of it have been more limited. Those that have been undertaken in the past decade have focused almost exclusively on the regional European Court of Human Rights as the vehicle to address Russian discrimination against its sexual and gender minorities. The scholarship has long ignored an international human rights approach, however, which, through the treaty bodies of the nine core international human rights treaties, has developed a robust set …

Sexuality Law (Third Edition) (2019), Arthur S. Leonard, Patricia A. Cain Jan 2019

Sexuality Law (Third Edition) (2019), Arthur S. Leonard, Patricia A. Cain

Books

Legal issues arising from the sexual diversity of our society are front and center in many legal fields. The Supreme Court, which selectively controls its docket, now considers sexuality-related cases almost every term, and the pace of litigation in lower courts keeps increasing. Responding to the surge of new developments, the authors have reorganized the front end of the book to emphasize the diversity of issues by providing a chronological journey through the Supreme Court’s treatment of sexuality law issues from the middle of the twentieth century to the present. Chapters on sexual orientation and gender identity issues in the …

Images Of Harassment: Copyright Law And Revenge Porn, Ari Ezra Waldman Jan 2015

Images Of Harassment: Copyright Law And Revenge Porn, Ari Ezra Waldman

Other Publications

Nonconsensual pornography, commonly known as “revenge porn,” usually occurs when an individual (usually a man) publicly posts online sexually explicit images of his former partner (usually a woman). Although normally the stuff of tort law, revenge porn offers copyright attorneys opportunities to help victims, as well: the offending images are often selfies taken by the victim and thus covered by the victim’s copyright. There is, to date, no Second Circuit case law on the subject, making this area uniquely suited to creative social impact litigation. Until state legislatures or Congress pass well-drafted criminal revenge porn statutes, copyright law remains a …


How Teaching About Therapeutic Jurisprudence Can Be A Tool Of Social Justice, And Lead Law Students To Personally And Socially Rewarding Careers: Sexuality And Disability As A Case Example, Michael L. Perlin, Alison Lynch Jan 2015

How Teaching About Therapeutic Jurisprudence Can Be A Tool Of Social Justice, And Lead Law Students To Personally And Socially Rewarding Careers: Sexuality And Disability As A Case Example, Michael L. Perlin, Alison Lynch

Articles & Chapters

Therapeutic jurisprudence (TJ) asks us to look at law as it actually impacts people’s lives and focuses on the law’s influence on emotional life and psychological well-being. It suggests that law should value psychological health, should strive to avoid imposing anti-therapeutic consequences whenever possible, and — when consistent with other values served by law — should attempt to bring about healing and wellness. The ultimate aim of TJ is to determine whether legal rules and procedures or lawyer roles can or should be reshaped to enhance their therapeutic potential while not subordinating due process principles. An inquiry into therapeutic outcomes …

All His Sexless Patients: Persons With Mental Disabilities And The Competence To Have Sex, Michael L. Perlin, Alison Lynch Jan 2014

All His Sexless Patients: Persons With Mental Disabilities And The Competence To Have Sex, Michael L. Perlin, Alison Lynch

Articles & Chapters

With the growth in the field of mental disability law over the past 50 years, very few topics involving persons with mental illness remain taboo or off limits to scholars and judges who face these issues daily. However, discussions of the question of whether persons with mental disabilities have a right to voluntary sexual interaction often touches a raw nerve in conversations about mental disability law, even with those who are practicing in the field, and the discomfort people feel in examining this topic is exacerbated when discussing individuals who are institutionalized.

Although this often appears to be a difficult …
