Knight News Challenge Casting the Net Wide for Innovation a Quest for Fresh Ideas and a Dose of Humility Drive the Knight News Challenge by CHRISTOPHER CONNELL
Knight News Challenge Casting the Net Wide for Innovation A quest for fresh ideas and a dose of humility drive the Knight News Challenge BY CHRISTOPHER CONNELL THE KNIGHT NEWS CHALLENGE reviewers, meeting at the foundation’s headquarters in a Miami skyscraper overlooking Biscayne Bay, were divided over one intriguing entry. A 25-year-old freelance tech reporter and blogger wanted to pioneer a new, public subscription model for investigative journalism. David Cohn wanted to launch a website in San Francisco where reporters could pitch ideas for stories and invite the public to contribute small amounts, on the order of $10 to $50, to underwrite the investigations. The public – the crowd – would decide which stories to go after. When enough money came in – as little as a few hundred – as much as several thousand dollars, the reporter would go out and do the job. Spot.Us, as Cohn dubbed his brainchild, would publish the results on its website, but also look for other media outlets for the work. It wasn’t that people didn’t think it was a good idea. But there That the lean, scruffy Cohn could go from graduate were a lot of questions and much student at the Columbia School of Journalism to media discussion about special interests innovator capable of placing stories in The New York Times seemed, at the time, a pipedream. But this was and the co-opting of the process: if a new digital age, with mainstream newsroom you paid for a story, did you expect staffs and budgets in freefall and millions of people, certain kinds of outcomes? young and old, getting their news online. -

Rights As Signals
RIGHTS AS SIGNALS DANIEL A. FARBER* ABSTRACT Because rights operate as trumps over normal governmental interests, they have an inherent cost. Consequently, by entrenching protection for human rights, govern- ments can signal a willingness to give up power in the short term to obtain long- term benefits. Investors can infer from this that the government has a low discount rate and is less likely to pose a threat of expropriation. Similarly, when courts vig- orously enforce human rights, they dramatize their judicial independence, which is valuable to investors, who themselves may have no interest in human rights. Thus, human rights enforcement may help encourage investment and thereby indirectly foster economic growth. I. INTRODUCTION CAN developing countries afford human rights and the rule of law? Perhaps not, according to Richard Posner. Posner advises poorer countries against "creating a first-class judiciary or an extensive system of civil liberties."' Although he is by no means opposed to judicial independence and human rights, he argues that they should largely await economic growth.2 From this point of view, the dramatic recent expansion of constitutionalism is a bit perplexing, if not a mistake. Posner's argument can be challenged on several grounds. Although he minimizes the importance of an independent judiciary to development,' the current consensus among economists is apparently to the contrary.'

Valuing Modern Contract Scholarship
Responses Valuing Modern Contract Scholarship Ian Ayrest I. INTRODUCTION Eric Posner has written a thoughtful and provocative indictment of the modem economic analysis of contracts. His essay makes two central claims1 about the failings of scholars "to produce an 'economic theory.' Specifically, Posner claims that the economic approach "does not explain the current system of contract law" and that it does not "provide a solid basis for criticizing and reforming contract law."2 In other words, Posner claims that modem scholarship fails as either a descriptive or a normative theory, in that it fails to give an account of what current law is or what efficient law should be. The descriptive criticism deserves only brief comment. Although he claims that modem scholarship has failed to achieve "what its proponents set out as the measure of success, ' 3 Posner sadly distorts reality by claiming that the leading scholars have been engaged in an attempt to use economic theory to predict the content of current legal rules. This is a straw man. Of course, decades ago this was the project of Richard Posner. 4 But the thought that efficiency analysis would provide a mechanism to predict the details of current doctrine is a serious misreading of the aims of modem scholarship. t William K.

THE INFLUENCE OF Two DECADES OF CONTRACT LAW SCHOLARSHIP ON JUDICIAL RULINGS: AN EMPIRICAL ANALYSIS Gregory Scott Crespi* I. INTRODUCTION VER the last two decades, a substantial and diverse body of con- tract law scholarship has been produced. Some of this work lim- its itself to applying traditional doctrinal categories and analytical approaches to new problems, while some also engages in eco- nomic analysis of various legal regimes, and some is empirical as well as analytical in nature. Much of this work is of a rather theoretical and ab- stract character. Consequently, one wonders whether this literature has had any discernable impact upon judicial practice, particularly in light of the declarations made by both prominent jurists and leading practitioners that most current legal scholarship has very limited relevance for attor- neys and judges,' and given recent studies that suggest declining rates of 2 citation of law review articles in judicial opinions. -

INTRODUCrION International legal scholarship has long suffered from too much normative theorizing and too little positive analysis about how the international legal system actually works. This inattention to the empirical and descriptive has alienated international legal scholars from their colleagues in political science departments and lent much of international law scholarship an utopian air. Whatever the historical source of this state of affairs, however, it is rapidly fading. A new generation of scholars, steeped in a variety of social scientific methodologies, has turned its sights on international law and is actively employing positive theories of state behavior to enhance legal analyses. These scholars have also begun to undertake empirical studies in an effort to provide support for their theoretical claims. -

Eric A. Posner1 Abstract: Law and economics has failed to produce plausible descriptive theories of contract doctrines. This paper documents these failures and suggests that they are due to a methodological problem involving the concept of transaction costs. If transaction costs refer to writing or information costs, then rational individuals would agree to complex contracts that are not in fact observed, and contract law would, for the most part, have no other function than that of specifically enforcing contracts. -
Computer Viruses and Malware Advances in Information Security
Computer Viruses and Malware Advances in Information Security Sushil Jajodia Consulting Editor Center for Secure Information Systems George Mason University Fairfax, VA 22030-4444 email: [email protected] The goals of the Springer International Series on ADVANCES IN INFORMATION SECURITY are, one, to establish the state of the art of, and set the course for future research in information security and, two, to serve as a central reference source for advanced and timely topics in information security research and development. The scope of this series includes all aspects of computer and network security and related areas such as fault tolerance and software assurance. ADVANCES IN INFORMATION SECURITY aims to publish thorough and cohesive overviews of specific topics in information security, as well as works that are larger in scope or that contain more detailed background information than can be accommodated in shorter survey articles. The series also serves as a forum for topics that may not have reached a level of maturity to warrant a comprehensive textbook treatment. Researchers, as well as developers, are encouraged to contact Professor Sushil Jajodia with ideas for books under this series.
