Risk, Everyday Intutions, And The Institutional Value Of Tort Law, Govind C. Persad
Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

The second Part considers how tort has dealt with this divergence between lay and expert perspectives. It also evaluates how …

Race, American Law And The State Of Nature,

Dedman School of Law at Southern Methodist University
Race, American Law And The State Of Nature, George A. Martinez
West Virginia Law Review
This Article advances a new theoretical framework to help explain and understand race and American law. In particular, the Article argues that we can employ a philosophical model to attempt to understand what often occurs when the dominant group deals with persons of color.

Thus, the Article argues that there is a tendency for the dominant group to act as though it were in the state of …
