Buying White Beauty, Imani Perry Jan 2006

Buying White Beauty, Imani Perry

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article argues that the global phenomenon of skin-bleaching is a manifestation of structural inequality rooted in race, poverty, and globalization. It critiques how the marketing and use of skin-whitening products perpetuate racial hierarchies and reflects broader societal power dynamics, emphasizing the need for legal and regulatory responses to address the health and social implications of this practice.

The Effects Of Quebec's Municipal Merger Law On Montreal: Mega-City Or Mega-Blunder?, Chad E. Tepper Apr 2004

The Effects Of Quebec's Municipal Merger Law On Montreal: Mega-City Or Mega-Blunder?, Chad E. Tepper

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The note examines the impact of Quebec's Municipal Merger Law, enacted in 2000, on the Anglophone community, arguing that the law has eroded Anglophone rights, reduced political representation, and exacerbated linguistic tensions. The law, upheld by courts as constitutional, amalgamated 64 municipalities into five megacities, including Montreal, and designated Montreal as unilingually French, contrary to prior bilingual frameworks. The merger process was criticized for its undemocratic nature, lack of public consultation, and disproportionate harm to Anglophone civil service employment. The analysis highlights the long-standing tensions between Anglophone and Francophone communities and explores the high costs and political challenges of reversing …

Why Federalism Must Be Enforced: A Response To Professor Kramer, Marci A. Hamilton Jan 2001

Why Federalism Must Be Enforced: A Response To Professor Kramer, Marci A. Hamilton

Articles

The United States Supreme Court has issued a series of opinions that turn on the Constitution's inherent principles of federalism, decisions that have alarmed many a legal scholar. Some scholars have attacked the Court for overstepping its bounds, and others have criticized the Court on the ground that the federal/state balance should be maintained through the political process rather than judicial review. The most recent advocate of this position, Professor Larry Kramer, recently argued in the Columbia Law Review that the political party structure ensures that state interests are taken into account at the federal level, and therefore the Supreme …

Reinventing Structural Reform Litigation: Deputizing Private Citizens In The Enforcement Of Civil Rights, Myriam E. Gilles Oct 2000

Reinventing Structural Reform Litigation: Deputizing Private Citizens In The Enforcement Of Civil Rights, Myriam E. Gilles

Articles

The aim of this Article is to explore the possibility of constructing a model that harnesses the power of private citizens to reform unconstitutional practices, particularly in the critical area of police-related rights violations. I seek here to reintegrate private citizens into the enforcement of public laws; to tap the private experiential and financial resources that were a necessary condition of the great structural reform efforts of the civil rights movement of the 1950s and 1960s.

The vehicle by which I propose to accomplish these ends is a simple, yet novel, amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 14141, the statute which …

Articles

Article II, Section 2 of the Constitution provides that the President shall have the power to make treaties by and with the consent of two-thirds of tie Senate. Yet, most of the international agreements into which the United States has entered over the last fifty years, including NAFTA and the WTO Agreement, have been concluded as congressional-executive agreements-a procedure by which the President submits an agreement to both houses of Congress for simple majority approvaL In an article in the Harvard Law Review entitled "Is NAFTA Constitutional?," Professors Bruce Ackerman and David Golove attempted to provide this practice with constitutionalfoundations. …


Metropolitanism, Progressivism, And Race, Edward A. Zelinsky Apr 1998

Metropolitanism, Progressivism, And Race, Edward A. Zelinsky

Articles

Professor Zelinsky examines three books on local government. Two of these, Cities Without Suburbs, by David Rusk, and Citistates, by Neal Peirce, call for metropolitanizing the governance of urban areas. Our Town, by David L. Kirp, John P. Dwyer, and Larry A. Rosenthal, explores the Mt. Laurel litigation and its aftermath and suggests that the land use authority of local governments be diminished through court-ordered zoning for low-income housing.

Professor Zelinsky is skeptical of these well-intentioned proposals. The metropolitan governments advocated by Rusk and Peirce would be less responsive than the smaller localities they would replace and less likely to …
