Justice Lies in the District: The U.S. District Court, Southern District of Texas, 1902-1960 (Centennial Series of the Association of Former Students, Texas A & M University)

By Charles L. Zelden
————————————————————————————————————————————
Publisher:  Texas A&M University Press
Number Of Pages:  312

Product Description:
In 1902 a new federal district court was established to serve a broad segment of the Texas Gulf Coast region, including Houston. In the use of its discretion to choose between "private" and "public" law, this court for many years served the interests of the region's economic and political elite and helped stabilize a fast-changing economy that was undergoing wild swings of boom and bust. After 1945, however, the court reluctantly began to address growing demands for public law enforcement of national policies, including civil rights, and by 1960, public law issues had come to dominate the court's dockets. In this groundbreaking study of a representative lower federal court, Charles L. Zelden provides insight into the functioning of district courts and their impact on the larger legal, economic, and political systems. Combining the perspectives of legal history with those of economic, business, urban, political, and social history, and drawing on largely untapped manuscript court records, he offers a unique view of the ways in which the federal courts have shaped the nation's public and private life. The well-crafted narrative looks at the full range of the court's decisions, clearly explaining complex legal issues. It sketches in as well the personalities and political positions of the judges. Zelden demonstrates that a judge's personal and class background largely determined his judicial philosophy and set his agenda on the bench. Zelden's work contributes an important dimension to the growing literature on the economic, social, and urban history of Texas and of America in the first half of this century. It elucidates the judicial role in consolidating a cultural ethos of economic growth, self-reliant individualism, and freedom from governmental restraint.

Judging Evil: Rethinking the Law of Murder and Manslaughter By Samuel Pillsbury ———————————————————————————————————————— Publisher:  NYU Press Number Of Pages:  264 ISBN-10 / ASIN:  081476665X ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780814766651 ———————————————————————————————————————— Product Description: Why do killers deserve punishment? How should the law decide? These are the questions Samuel H. Pillsbury seeks to answer in this important new book on the theory and practice of criminal responsibility. In an argument both traditional and fresh, Pillsbury holds that persons deserve punishment according to the evil they choose to do, regardless of their psychological capacities. After considering potential objections to this approach, including those based on determinism, unjust social conditions, and the alleged cruelty of retribution, he presents an extended critique of American homicide law. Using real case examples, Pillsbury offers concrete proposals for legal reform, urging that modern preoccupations with subjective aspects of wrongdoing be replaced with rules that focus more on the individual's motives. http://ifile.it/cz4b0i7/081476665X.zip

Governing with Judges: Constitutional Politics in Europe

By Alec Stone-Sweet
————————————————————————————————————————————
(March 23, 2000)

Publisher:  Oxford University Press, USA
Number Of Pages:  248
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0198297300
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780198297307
————————————————————————————————————————————

Product Description:
Constitutional Politics in Europe: Governing with Judges elaborates a theory of constitutional politics, the process through which the discursive practices and techniques of constitutional adjudication come to structure the work of governments, parliaments, judges, and administrators. Focusing on the cases of France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the European Union, the book examines the sources and consequences of the pan-European movement to confer constitutional review authority on a new governmental institution, the constitutional court. Detailed case studies illustrate how and to what extent legislative processes have been placed under the influence of constitutional judges. In a growing number of policy domains, these judges function as powerful, adjunct legislators. As constitutional courts have consolidated their position as authoritative interpreters of the constitutional law, and especially of human rights provisions, the work of the judiciary, too, has gradually been constitutionalised. Today, ordinary judges seek to detect violations of the constitution in their application of the various codes, and to rewrite statutes that they deem unconstitutional. Constitutional politics have not only provoked the demise of traditional notions of parliamentary sovereignty, they have organized profound transformations in the very nature of European governance. Stone Sweet argues that constitutional adjudication constructs complex causal linkages between rule systems and normativity, on the one hand, and the strategic behaviour of individuals, on the other. The theory constitutes a novel synthesis of normative and rational approaches to politics. The book also addresses central questions raised by a wide range of ongoing theory projects, including the 'new institutionalism,'rational choice, principal-agent theories of delegation, and the new constitutionalism in Continental legal theory.

Kohler Strike: Union Violence and Administrative Law

By Sylvester Petro
————————————————————————————————————————————
Publisher:  Henry Regnery Company
Number Of Pages: 126
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0882790048
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780882790046
————————————————————————————————————————————
Are labor unions merely an example of "free association"? Perhaps in some dreamland, but the real history of American labor organizing tells a different story. This 1961 book by labor economist Sylvester Petro tells a story of ghastly destruction of private property and freedom at the hands of unions. The 1954 strike against Kohler was perhaps the most momentous in postwar history. The laborers who did not want to join were protected by a new law that said that they could keep working. But in fact, the labor union used every tactic to prevent these "scabs" from exercising their rights—and the unions worked closely with the government in this respect.
As the author writes, "During its dispute with the Kohler Company, the United Automobile Workers Union engaged in sustained violence which covered almost the whole range of illegality, stopping just short of murder. It violated the laws of all levels of government."
It is a striking case, and defining case, of how union thugs work with government thugs to destroy free enterprise. Petro tells the story with scientific precision as to detail but also with great rhetorical power. This is a classic book in the history of labor economics. Anyone who is na飗e about the reality of unions would do well to master its detail.
What is most notable here is how Petro's account is completely opposite from the conventional wisdom you hear about this strike. It is usually cited as a case of a corporate monster crushing labor. Read this book and know that truth.
126 pages, paperback, 1961

Jurisdiction of the Coastal State over Foreign Merchant Ships in Internal Waters and the Territorial Sea (Hamburg Studies on Maritime Affairs)

By Haijiang Yang
————————————————————————————————————————————
Publisher:  Springer
Number Of Pages:  285
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  3540331913
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9783540331919
————————————————————————————————————————————

Product Description:

The general international law regarding foreign merchant ships in internal waters has never been codified. Despite the codification efforts made by the League of Nations and the Geneva Convention on the Territorial Sea and the Contiguous Zone of 1958, the question of the breadth of the territorial sea was finally solved during the Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea. In addition, the right of innocent passage of foreign ships has been regulated in the 1982 Convention in greater detail than ever before, whilst the new regime on the prevention of marine pollution in the Convention has also considerable impact on this right. In practice, potential conflicts between coastal States and foreign merchant ships in internal waters and the territorial sea may well arise. This comprehensive study analyses these issues and cautiously strives for reasonable and generally acceptable solutions.

Law and Disorder in the Postcolony

By Jean Comaroff, John L. Comaroff
————————————————————————————————————————————
Publisher:  University Of Chicago Press
Number Of Pages:  400
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0226114090
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780226114095
————————————————————————————————————————————

Product Description:

Are postcolonies haunted more by criminal violence than other nation-states? The usual answer is yes. In Law and Disorder in the Postcolony, Jean and John Comaroff and a group of respected theorists show that the question is misplaced: that the predicament of postcolonies arises from their place in a world order dominated by new modes of governance, new sorts of empires, new species of wealth—an order that criminalizes poverty and race, entraps the “south” in relations of corruption, and displaces politics into the realms of the market, criminal economies, and the courts.

As these essays make plain, however, there is another side to postcoloniality: while postcolonies live in states of endemic disorder, many of them fetishize the law, its ways and itsmeans. How is the coincidence of disorder with a fixation on legalities to be explained? Law and Disorder in the Postcolony addresses this question, entering into critical dialogue with such theorists as Benjamin, Agamben, and Bayart. In the process, it also demonstrates how postcolonies have become crucial sites for the production of contemporary theory, not least because they are harbingers of a global future under construction.

Theoretical Foundations of Law and Economics

Number Of Pages:  304
ISBN-10 / ASIN:  0521889553
ISBN-13 / EAN:  9780521889551
————————————————————————————————————————————

Product Description:
The economic approach to law, or "law and economics," is by far the most successful application of basic economic principles to another scholarly field, but most of the critical appraisal of the field has been scattered among law reviews and economics journals. Theoretical Foundations of Law and Economics is the first original, book-length examination of the methodology and philosophy of law and economics, featuring new essays written by leading legal scholars, philosophers, and economists. The contributors take issue with many of the key tenets of the economic approach to law, such as its assumption of rational behavior, its reliance on market analogies, and its adoption of efficiency as the primary goal of legal decision-making. They discuss the relevance of economics to the law in general, as well as to substantive areas of the law, such as contracts, torts, and crime.

Product Description:
"This outstanding collection of essays provides new insight into one of the most important features of the American judicial system. Matthew J. Streb has assembled a first-rate set of contributors who offer a fascinating exploration of the institutions, incentives, and democratic consequences of electing judges."
--Kevin T. McGuire, author of Understanding the U.S. Supreme Court
"A timely and important addition to the literature on state courts and judicial politics by a stellar team of contributors. New research is presented on a range of issues that will interest scholars and students not only of courts but state politics more generally."
--David M. O'Brien, author of Storm Center: The Supreme Court in American Politics
Across the country, races for judgeships are becoming more and more politically contested. As a result, several states and cities are now considering judicial election reform. Running for Judge examines the increasingly contentious judicial elections over the last twenty-five years by providing a timely, insightful analysis of judicial elections. The book ties together the current state of the judicial elections literature, and presents new evidence on a wide range of important topics, including: the history of judicial elections; an understanding of the types of judicial elections; electoral competition during races; the increasing importance of campaign financing; voting in judicial elections; the role interest groups play in supporting candidates; party organizing in supposedly non-partisan elections; judicial accountability; media coverage; and judicial reform of elections.
Running for Judge is an engaging, accessible, empirical analysis of the major issues surrounding judicial elections, with contributions from prominent scholars in the fields of judicial politics, political behavior, and law.
