Mobilizing Law For Justice In Asia: A Comparative Approach, Frank W. Munger, Scott Cummings, Louise Trubek

Articles & Chapters

This article offers a comparative framework for studying why and how law is mobilized to advance justice claims by marginalized groups in Asia.

Wireless Localism: Beyond The Shroud Of Objectivity In Federal Spectrum Administration, Olivier Sylvain

Faculty Scholarship

Recent innovations in mobile wireless technology have instigated a debate between two camps of legal scholars about how policymakers should structure federal administration of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Durkheim's Internet: Social And Political Theory In Online Society, Ari Ezra Waldman 2013 New York Law School

Durkheim's Internet: Social And Political Theory In Online Society, Ari Ezra Waldman

Articles & Chapters

While the Internet has changed dramatically since the early 1990s, the legal regime governing the right to privacy online and Internet speech is still steeped in a myth of the Internet user, completely hidden from others, in total control of his online experience, and free to come and go as he pleases.
