The Difference A Justice May Make: Remarks At The Symposium For Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Suzanne Baer
Articles
First, I will briefly summarize the state of the art of equality law in Germany today. A distinct dimension of this story from a European Union member state is that we are not just theorizing postnational constitutionalism these days, but that we live it already, since law is not anymore isolated as national but needs to be seen in the context of transnational migration and multinational regimes. Second, I turn to a key feature and key challenge in and to equality law today. It is what I have called the triangle of fundamental rights, referring to the three most prominent …
Property, Privacy And Power: Rethinking The Fourth Amendment In The Wake Of U.S. V. Jones,

Property, Privacy And Power: Rethinking The Fourth Amendment In The Wake Of U.S. V. Jones, Dana Raigrodski
Articles
This Article seeks to uncover invisible gender, race, and class biases driving modern Fourth Amendment discourse. Unlike traditional theories, which tend to view the Fourth Amendment through the lens of either privacy or property, this Article advances a theory focusing on the real issues of power and control that fuel Fourth Amendment jurisprudence. Specifically, the Article exposes the private/public and home/market dichotomies that are central to the Supreme Court rhetoric as arbitrary and artificial. It finds that current Fourth Amendment discourse protects the interest of white, privileged men and perpetuates male ideology as well as male domination. That focus leaves …
The Search For Authenticity And The Manipulation Of Tradition: Restrictions On Women's Reproductive Rights In The United States And Egypt,
2013
University of Georgia School of Law
The Search For Authenticity And The Manipulation Of Tradition: Restrictions On Women's Reproductive Rights In The United States And Egypt, Sarah M. Stephens
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that restrictions on women's reproductive rights in both the U.S. and Egypt are rooted in the use of authenticity and cultural essentialism to maintain patriarchal control. These restrictions, though justified through differing cultural and legal frameworks, reflect a common goal of silencing women and preserving traditional social hierarchies. The analysis highlights how law and politics are employed as tools to construct cultural otherness, furthering political agendas at the expense of women's reproductive autonomy and dignity.
Sex Matters: Considering Gender In Consumer Contracting,

Sex Matters: Considering Gender In Consumer Contracting, Amy J. Schmitz
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
We hear about the so-called "War on Women" and persisting salary gaps between men and women in the popular media, but contracts scholars and policymakers rarely discuss gender. Instead, dominant voices in the contracts field often reflect classical and economics-driven theories built on assumptions of gender neutral and economically rational actors. Furthermore, many mistakenly assume that market competition and antidiscrimination legislation address any improper biases in contracting. This Article therefore aims to shed light on gender's importance by distilling data from my own e-survey of Colorado consumers along with others' research regarding gender differences in contract outcomes, interests and behaviors. …

2013
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law
The Extension Of The Presumption Of Legitimacy To Same-Sex Couples In New York, Alexandra Eisman
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that the presumption of legitimacy, a cornerstone of family law, should be extended to same-sex couples to ensure legal equality and protect the rights of their children. It critiques the traditional application of the presumption, which excludes same-sex couples, and advocates for its evolution to align with modern legal trends and the best interests of children. The analysis emphasizes the importance of legislative and judicial action to address the disparities faced by same-sex families under current laws.

Crisis Pregnancy Centers: Impeding The Right To Informed Decision Making,
2013
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law
Crisis Pregnancy Centers: Impeding The Right To Informed Decision Making, Alice X. Chen
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that crisis pregnancy centers (CPCs) in the United States engage in deceptive practices to deter women from obtaining abortions, often masquerading as medical facilities while providing misleading information about reproductive health. These centers receive significant funding from federal and state governments, despite their lack of regulation and medical licensure. The note contends that while local governments have attempted to regulate CPCs through ordinances requiring transparency, these efforts have largely been struck down by federal courts on First Amendment grounds. The author advocates for state-level action to protect women's rights to informed decision-making and accurate reproductive healthcare.

Pregnancy Discrimination In Higher Education: Accommodating Student Pregnancy,
2013
Minnesota Court of Appeals
Pregnancy Discrimination In Higher Education: Accommodating Student Pregnancy, Emily Mcnee
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that despite Title IX's protections against sex discrimination, pregnant students in higher education continue to face subtle discrimination, particularly through rigid academic policies that fail to accommodate pregnancy-related needs. It advocates for clarifying Title IX regulations to explicitly require schools to provide accommodations, drawing parallels to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) model, to ensure equal educational opportunities for pregnant students.

Criminalization In Shades Of Color: Prosecuting Pregnant Drugaddicted Women, Carla-Michelle Adams
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The article argues that criminalizing pregnant women for drug use is both unconstitutional and ineffective. It contends that such prosecutions infringe upon fundamental rights, disproportionately affect minority women, and fail to address the root causes of addiction. The author advocates for a public health approach, emphasizing treatment over punishment to protect both the mother and the fetus.

2013
Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law
Unlikely Partners: Tort Law As A Tool For Trans Activism, Courtney Sirwatka
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that tort law reform and trans activism can mutually benefit each other by addressing systemic discrimination and advancing equality for trans individuals. It critiques the legal system for perpetuating discrimination through its emphasis on physical injury over emotional or sexual harm and its refusal to validate trans identities. The analysis proposes that recognizing sexual autonomy and reproduction as protected interests in tort law, along with legal education reforms, could legitimize trans narratives and lead to meaningful change.

If women outnumber men in graduate schools and are entering professional and other workplaces in unprecedented numbers, and if Title VII has aimed to eradicate workplace discrimination for almost fifty years, why are women still so woefully underrepresented at the highest levels of power, leadership, wealth, and prestige in the contemporary workplace? This Article is about abusive speech in the workplace. It explores how the expression of bias in the workplace has evolved and been shaped by anti-discrimination legislation and jurisprudence. It identifies a category of biased speech that eludes prosecution under Title VII. Moreover, this Article seeks to provide …
