    University of Virginia School of Law Public Law and Legal Theory Research Paper Series No. 2011-16 Ambiguities of Free Labor Revisited: The Convict-Labor Question in Progressive-Era New York Barry Cushman University of Virginia School of Law April 2011 This paper may be downloaded without charge from the Social Science Research Network Electronic Paper Collection: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1807114 A complete index of University of Virginia School of Law research papers is available at Law and Economics: http://www.ssrn.com/link/U-Virginia-LEC.html Public Law and Legal Theory: http://www.ssrn.com/link/U-Virginia-PUB.html Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=1807114 Ambiguities of Free Labor Revisited: The Convict-Labor Question in Progressive-Era New York Barry Cushman Abstract Until the last quarter of the twentieth century it was a commonplace that the various expressions of economic substantive due process we associate with the so-called “Lochner Era” were animated by laissez-faire economics and Social Darwinism. More recent assessments have persuasively rejected this view, observing that the Court as a whole and the justices individually voted to uphold many more instances of government regulation of the economy than they voted to invalidate, and that the closest thing to a Social Darwinist that the Court had to offer was Justice Holmes, on whose polemical dissent in Lochner the conventional wisdom had been based. Since the 1970s, revisionist scholars have come instead to see these doctrines as expressions of what Professor Howard Gillman has called a “principle of neutrality.” That master principle was grounded in such antebellum ideological concerns as the aversion to factional politics and the Jacksonian revulsion against special privilege, and was best understood as prohibiting what was at the time called “class legislation” or “special legislation” or “partial legislation” – legislation that could not be deemed public-regarding because it singled out particular groups for unjustified special benefits or burdens.

  • A History of the Rochester City Club by BLAKE MCKELVEY
    Edited by DEXTER PERKINS, City Historian and BLAKE MCKELVEY, As&ant City Historian Vol. IX. October, 1947 A History of the Rochester City Club by BLAKE MCKELVEY The City Club’s more significant contributions were written in the minds and hearts of the countless thousands who heard or participated in its forums. No historian can fathom such sources, yet we may learn much from the records kept by conscientious officers and from the press notices preserved in bulging scrapbooks. A voluminous correspond- ence file and the recollections of old and long-faithful members* have helped to recreate the drama hidden behind the formal records, thus giving life to at least some of the more memorable sessions. From, these varied sources emerges the story of a noteworthy venture in adult education, in democratic citizenship-a continuing institution still vibrantly alive in its 39th year. We can of course detect some of the Club’s influence in Rochester’s sturdy tradition of free discussion, in the community’s broad-minded approach to many public questions (particularly those of an international scope), and in the tolerant spirit so characteristic of the relations between many segments of the population. The City Club has not been the only builder of present-day Rochester, nor has its influence been equally significant over the years. There have been shifts in its emphasis, critical periods in its career. A study of the affairs of such a representative institution as the City Club, an appraisal of the issues raised and of the programs developed, will throw much light on the city’s history during the last four decades.

  • "Racial and Religious Democracy"
    Stanford Law Review Volume 72 June 2020 ARTICLE “Racial and Religious Democracy”: Identity and Equality in Midcentury Courts Elizabeth D. Katz* Abstract. In our current political moment, discrimination against minority racial and religious groups routinely makes headlines. Though some press coverage of these occurrences acknowledges parallels and links between racial and religious prejudices, these intersections remain undertheorized in legal and historical scholarship. Because scholars typically study race and religion separately, they have overlooked the legal significance of how race and religion coexist in both perpetrators and victims of discrimination. By contrast, this Article demonstrates that the intersection of racial and religious identities has meaningfully influenced legal and political efforts to achieve equality. Drawing from extensive archival research, this Article unearths forgotten yet formative connections between racial and religious antidiscrimination efforts, at the local through federal levels, from the 1930s through the 1950s. To examine these links, this account * Associate Professor of Law, Washington University in St. Louis.
