Bias both conscious and unconscious, reflecting traditional and unexamined habits of thought, keeps up barriers that must come down if equal opportunity and nondiscrimination are ever genuinely to become the country's law and practice. -- Justice Ginsburg, dissenting in Adarand Constructors, Inc. v.

In 2005, Hurricane Katrina exposed a rights deficit on the Gulf Coast. At the end of August 2005, legacies of racial, economic and social inequality were laid bare on the nation's televisions and computer screens.

The system of property and law goes back for its origin to barbarous and sacred times; it is the fruit of the same mysterious cause as the mineral or animal world.

Civil remedies for wrongful harm are available in every country. In each instance their availability, in one form or another, reaches back for centuries, or even millennia. Yet in the conventional first-year torts course there is scant, if any, recognition of this, much less inquiry into particular past or current applications from other countries... |

Is Capital Punishment Immoral Even If it Deters Murder? |

After years of inconclusive debate, recent studies purport to demonstrate that capital punishment really does deter murder, and that multiple lives are saved for each person executed. The basic thrust of the findings appears to be that, while at low levels of execution there is no deterrent effect and even a brutalizing effect that increases... |
