SHIPS PASSING IN THE NIGHT: MAPPING THE TRADE ROUTES BETWEEN THE WAR ON DRUGS AND THE WAR ON TERROR |
15 Temple Political & Civil Rights Law Review 1 (Fall 2005) |
I ain't got no quarrel with them Vietcong. No Vietcong has ever called me a nigger. -Muhammed Ali It sounds like the beginning of a racist joke: What do an African American and an Arab American have in common? Many jokes, including racist ones, begin by comparing two seemingly incomparable things (or races). This particular question, however,... |

THE DEVIL WE KNOW: RACIAL SUBORDINATION AND NATIONAL SECURITY LAW |
50 Villanova Law Review 1073 (2005) |
SINCE September 11, Muslims, Arabs and South Asians in the United States have had to contend with disparate and abusive treatment, both within civil society and at the hands of state actors including security, law enforcement and prison officials. It would seem a horrible exaggeration to say that post-September 11 has been a period of open season... |

THE DOCTRINE OF GOOD FAITH IN CONTRACT LAW: A (NEARLY) EMPTY VESSEL? |
2005 Utah Law Review 1 (2005) |
Does good faith matter anymore in American contract law? The Restatement (Second) of Contracts provides that [e]very contract imposes upon each party a duty of good faith and fair dealing in its performance and its enforcement. The Uniform Commercial Code, adopted by every state except Louisiana, defines good faith as honesty in fact and the... |

THE FORGOTTEN "REPATRIATION" OF PERSONS OF MEXICAN ANCESTRY AND LESSONS FOR THE "WAR ON TERROR" |
26 Pace Law Review 1 (Fall 2005) |
My remarks, titled The Forgotten Repatriation of Persons of Mexican Ancestry and Lessons for the War on Terror, begin with a forgotten historical incident that spanned a decade and end with the time in which we live. I refer to the forgotten repatriation because many Americans have not heard of the forced removal of approximately one... |

THE GIFT OF ENRON: AN OPPORTUNITY TO TALK ABOUT CAPITALISM, EQUALITY, GLOBALIZATION, AND THE PROMISE OF A NORTH-AMERICAN CHARTER OF FUNDAMENTAL RIGHTS |

In this Article, Enron-using the word in its largest symbolic sense-is positioned as a promising opening in the debate about economic globalization and the regulation of advanced capitalism in North America. As a contribution to that debate, the author suggests that there are two aspects of advanced capitalism which call for supranational response... |

THE MAJORITARIAN DIFFICULTY: AFFIRMATIVE ACTION, SODOMY, AND SUPREME COURT POLITICS |

Conventional academic literature portrays the Supreme Court as a countermajoritarian body. Alexander Bickel's research on judicial review provides the most classic explication of judicial countermajoritarianism. Judicial review conflicts with democracy because it permits unelected judges to invalidate actions taken by representative branches of... |

Nowadays, if you know the color of somebody's skin, you know what the person values (or should value), what causes the person supports (or should support), and how he or she thinks (or should think). Skin color, it seems, is a perfectly acceptable proxy for lots of others things-but principally for holding, or being willing to espouse, the right... |

Family caregiving can be a form of political resistance or expression, especially when done by people ordinarily denied the privilege of family privacy by the state.

68-SPG Law and Contemporary Problems 215 (Spring 2005) |
So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself--nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance. The only thing we have is fear. In the post-9/11 era, what exactly is meant by race? Race is composed significantly of a religious dimension that... |

In the 1950s, 1960s, and early 1970s, most Americans thought they knew what racism meant. Racism was a belief that non-Whites were inferior and that Whites should avoid social contact with them. During the heyday of the civil rights movement, racial segregation became the target for historic judicial intervention, unprecedented congressional... |

WHITE (HOUSE) LIES: WHY THE PUBLIC MUST COMPEL THE COURTS TO HOLD THE PRESIDENT ACCOUNTABLE FOR NATIONAL SECURITY ABUSES |

History teaches us how easily the spectre of a threat to national security may be used to justify a wide variety of repressive government actions. A blind acceptance by the courts of the government's insistence on the need for secrecy, without notice to others, without argument, and without a statement of reasons would impermissibly compromise... |

"CHASING THE WIND": PURSUING SOCIAL JUSTICE, OVERCOMING LEGAL MIS-EDUCATION, AND ENGAGING IN PROFESSIONAL RE-SOCIALIZATION |

We believe that a subtle process of professionalization occurs during law school without being addressed or even acknowledged. This learning by inadvertence means that the participants often fail to consider fundamental questions about the identity they are assuming, and its relation to their values. In simple terms, a fully-socialized individual... |

"TAX AND RACE: THE IMPACT ON ASIAN AMERICANS" |

Articles about tax law often begin by invoking Benjamin Franklin's famous phrase: In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes. As the Internal Revenue Code (hereinafter Code) increases in complexity, the certainty of taxes seems more and more illusory. For many taxpayers, taxes are more unpredictable than certain. Continued changes add... |
