Murphy,1 heir to Princeton University’s great tradition of such scholars,2 employed the papers of United States Supreme Court Justices to consider how any one of their number might go about ex- erting influence within and outside the Court. How, Murphy asked, could a justice most efficiently use her resources—official and per- sonal—to achieve a set of policy objectives?3 Murphy argued that there were strategic and tactical courses open for justices to increase their policy influence,4 and that a policy-oriented justice must be pre- pared to consider the relative costs and benefits that might result from her formal decisions and informal efforts at influence.5 There were, Murphy argued, a wide variety

Anyone who has ever given or re- ceived criticism recognizes the truth of that observation. Yet pain- ful as it may be, criticism is essential. People and their institutions are fallible, missteps are inevitable, and anyone who does well has profited from mistakes. No one learns to ride a bicy- cle without falling. The learner who tumbles off the bicycle does not need to be told that something went wrong; gravity delivered the message. But when we are dealing with complex matters involving social or institutional relationships, it is often difficult to know when one has lost her sense of balance. As Winston S. Chur- chill put it: "Criticism may not be agreeable, but it is necessary; it fulfills the same function as pain in the human body, it calls at- 2 tention to the development of an unhealthy state of things." * Professor of Law, Roger Williams University School of Law.

  • Roger A. Fairfax, Jr.* There Is a Long and Rich History of Criminal Justice
    2011] 597 FROM “O VERCRIMINALIZATION ” TO “S MART ON CRIME ”: AMERICAN CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM —L EGACY AND PROSPECTS Roger A. Fairfax, Jr.* INTRODUCTION There is a long and rich history of criminal justice reform efforts in the United States, including the early twentieth century reformers advocating for the improvement and normalization of criminal procedural and substan- tive law, the large-scale criminal law study and reform efforts undertaken in the late 1960s, and the more recent “overcriminalization” movement. All of these reform movements have sought to make criminal justice more effective, rational, efficient, and fair, although the extent to which they have succeeded is a matter for debate. With Americans feeling less safe (even in the face of dropping crime rates), 1 strained law enforcement budgets, 2 staggering rates of incarceration and recidivism, 3 and real and perceived inequities in the administration of criminal justice, 4 it is beyond peradventure that criminal justice is long overdue for an overhaul. In recent years, a new approach to criminal justice reform—“smart on crime”—has gained traction in policy circles. The smart on crime philoso- phy emphasizes fairness and accuracy in the administration of criminal jus- tice; alternatives to incarceration and traditional sanctions; effective preemptive mechanisms for preventing criminal behavior, the transition of * A.B., Harvard College; M.A., University of London; J.D., Harvard Law School.

  • Race Liberalism and the Deradicalization of Racial Reform
    RACE LIBERALISM AND THE DERADICALIZATION OF RACIAL REFORM Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw In the era that followed the formal collapse of white supremacy, ef- forts to sustain and broaden reformist agendas against the denouement of social justice movements exposed a series of discordant debates on the Left. While many such conflicts surfaced throughout the social or- der, some of these debates were staged in elite spaces like Harvard Law School. The Harvard Law School boycott of 1982 reflected a rupture among race-reform advocates between what I call “race liberalism,” an ideology that ultimately embodies a “colorblind” model of racial justice that seeks to eliminate “discrimination,” and a “critical race” discourse focused on the distribution of racial power, a perspective requiring the very race consciousness that race liberals saw as the evil that reform aimed to transcend. In the 1980s, the rhetorical battles between these two camps played out in a number of contexts, including, for example, debates about race-conscious affirmative action policies in elite institutions. The temporal and institutional setting of the battles exposed how knowledge production in legal education was an arena of racial contes- tation not unlike the lunch counters and ballot boxes that confronted civil rights advocates in the decades before. When students of color demanded a say in how race and law would be conceptualized as a field of inquiry, they challenged the deepest pretense of liberal sensibility — that universities themselves are apolitical arbiters of neutral knowledge rather than participants in the struggle over how social power is exercised. Harvard Law School was a generative site of struggle over the norms and content of elite legal education, particularly in shaping the contours of liberal-radical conflict about law and social transformation.

  • Transform—Don't Just Tinker With—Legal Education
    \\jciprod01\productn\N\NYC\23-2\NYC203.txt unknown Seq: 1 20-MAR-17 9:15 TRANSFORM—DON’T JUST TINKER WITH—LEGAL EDUCATION GERALD P. LOPEZ´ * In this two-part article, Part I evaluates how the past decade’s “transformation” of legal education amounts so far to just so much time-honored tinkering. Over the past ten years, most schools changed very little, and the small number that changed a fair amount (overwhelmingly in the second and third years) borrowed directly from what other law schools have been doing for decades. Because we must learn all we can from these recent years (and earlier eras), Part I aspires to present in something like realistic form the institu- tional, material, and ideological forces we all encounter and too often reproduce. What makes the past decade’s near-ritualistic experience all the more regrettable is that we have available an alternative vision of legal education ready now for a full roll-out. Because this vision traces its origins, its implementation, its improvements to the best of clinical programs in the United States, cynics will doubtlessly scoff. Facing down the disparagers, Part II will sketch the radically differ- ent assumptions, methods, and aspirations that define how this vision contrasts with the at best status-quo-plus version of legal education strongly internalized and widely practiced. Part I is not at all the “set- up” to Part II, and Part II is not at all an impractical ideal offered to soften the blunt realities portrayed in Part I. The two parts stand alone and belong together, both to chasten and embolden us, at least if we’re willing.
