ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors are indebted to a number of individuals who provided insight and talent to this effort. We want to first thank our task force members as well as our advisors from the United Kingdom who, over the course of several meetings in Cambridge and in Oklahoma City, were exceptionally forthright, honest and productive. They have reviewed drafts and offered insights. Their collective talent and experience has rarely been replicated. We also want to pay tribute to our National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism (MIPT) partners. General Dennis J. Reimer always was an important contributor to this effort; James "Chip" O. Ellis III provided the necessary carrots and sticks and was a pleasure to work with; and, simply put, we are proud of Donald R. Hamilton's service to our country, but also grateful that he is home safely. Susan Lynch was served as our willing and able editor. Sady Cohen and Ben Lambert were instrumental law school partners. John Neffinger and Sharon Wilke helped tremendously in the final stages of this Report and its release. Tom Parker reminded us why we like the British so much. And Tom Lue, a "mere" Harvard law student, provided invaluable advice throughout. We are particularly indebted to him. Throughout we sought the advice of outside counsel -- both inside and outside government. Thank you. But, this all would not have been possible without Meredith Tunney who took this project on, gave it life, got everyone in the same room at the same time, edited and copied, and performed as a remarkable administrator of this Project. She was a patient and understanding partner in this effort. We thank her tremendously.

Regardless of their party affiliation or preferred diplomatic priorities, presidents have invariably come to appreciate that they can- not afford to make foreign policy decisions in the same manner as they did when they were a candidate. The requirements of managing an enormous and complex national security bureau- cracy reward careful deliberation and strategic consistency, while sharply punishing the kind of policy shifts that are more common on the campaign trail. Statements by the president are taken far more seriously abroad than are promises by a candidate, by both allies and adversaries alike. And while policy mistakes made before entering office can damage a candidate’s personal political prospects, a serious misstep made once in office can put the country itself at risk.

    Crimes Against Nature Is Ultimately About the Corrosive Effect of Corporate Corruption on Our Core American Values—Free-Market Capitalism and Democracy

    PDF Page No: 1 PDF Page No: 2 Inside Front/Back Cover In this powerful and far-reaching indictment of George W. Bush’s White House, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the country’s most prominent environmental attorney, charges that this administration has taken corporate cronyism to such unprecedented heights that it now threatens our health, our national security, and democracy as we know it. In a headlong pursuit of private profit and personal power, Kennedy writes, George Bush and his administration have eviscerated the laws that have protected our nations air, water, public lands, and wildlife for the past thirty years, enriching the president’s political contributors while lowering the quality of life for the rest of us. Kennedy lifts the veil on how the administration has orchestrated these rollbacks almost entirely outside of public scrutiny—and in tandem with the very industries that our laws are meant to regulate, the country’s most notorious polluters. He writes of how it has deceived the public by manipulating and suppressing scientific data, intimidated enforcement officials and other civil servants, and masked its agenda with Orwellian doublespeak. He reports on how the White House doles out lavish subsidies and tax breaks to the energy barons while excusing industry from providing adequate security at the more than 15,000 chemical and nuclear facilities that are prime targets for terrorist attacks. Kennedy reveals an administration whose policies have “squandered our Treasury, entangled us in foreign wars, diminished our international prestige, made us a target for terrorist attacks, and increased our reliance on petty Middle Eastern dictators who despise democracy and are hated by their own people.” Crimes Against Nature is ultimately about the corrosive effect of corporate corruption on our core American values—free-market capitalism and democracy.

  • Maladministration and Its Remedies

    Maladministration and Its Remedies

    THE HAMLYN LECTURES Twenty-fifth Series MALADMINISTRATION AND ITS REMEDIES K. C. Wheare STEVENS MALADMINISTRATION AND ITS REMEDIES by K. C. WHEARE Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford Maladministration may be defined as administrative action (or inaction) based on or influenced by improper considerations or conduct. In this book, published contemporaneously with the 25th series of lectures under the auspices of the Hamlyn Trust, Sir Kenneth Wheare discusses the existing remedies for maladministration in Britain, and assesses their effec- tiveness in comparison with those available in other countries, particularly in Europe. The book begins with a comprehensive survey of maladministration as it may occur in the actions of the officials of both central and local government With the tendency towards giant departments in central government, and with the introduction in 1974 of enlarged local government units, the author sees a real danger, not only that public administration may be still further removed from those it is intended to serve, but also that more administration is likely to mean correspondingly more maladministration. The discussion opens up the vast question of how a civil service should be recruited and organised in the first place. The author goes on to consider, in separate chapters, the institutions intended at present to remedy mal- administration. He discusses the work of the Courts of Law, including Tribunals, and compares them with their counterparts in France and elsewhere. He takes a fresh look at the doctrine of Ministerial Respon- sibility and considers the effectiveness of Parliamentary Select Committees and Public and Ministerial Inquiries, making particular reference to the 1954 Crichel Down affair and to the yehicle and General Insurance Inquiry of 1972.

Conclusion: An ombudsman unfettered? 1. In search of a role In Chapter 10, we considered complaints-handling by the administration, set- tling for a ‘bottom-up’ approach. Th is led us to focus on proportionate dispute resolution (PDR) and machinery, such as internal review, by which complaints can be settled before they ripen into disputes. In so doing, we diverged from the ‘top-down’ tradition of administrative law where tribunals are seen as court substitutes. We returned to the classic approach in Chapter 11, looking at the recent reorganisation of the tribunal service and its place in the administrative justice system. We saw how the oral and adversarial tradition of British justice was refl ected in tribunal procedure and considered the importance attached to impartiality and independence, values now protected by ECHR Art. 6(1). We, 529 The Parliamentary Ombudsman: Firefi ghter or fi re-watcher? however, argued that recent reshaping of the tribunal system left unanswered key questions about oral and adversarial proceedings and whether they are always the most appropriate vehicle for resolving disputes with the administra- tion.

When clients get their answers from machines, what's left for lawyers to do? The Changing Political and Intellectual Landscape of Criminal Justice Reform Faculty Hosts: Andrew Crespo ’08, Carol Steiker ’86, Alex Whiting ​ ​ ​ Participants: Rachel Barkow ’96, Brook Hopkins ’07, Alan Jenkins ’89, Derecka Purnell ​ ’17, Jonathan Wroblewski The law, politics, and scholarship of criminal justice reform have been shifting in potentially tectonic ways. After several decades of increasingly punitive policies across the country which resulted in surging incarceration rates, the last several years have seen an increasingly bipartisan shift towards a critique of what has come to be called mass incarceration. Yet, the recent presidential election signals a shift in federal priorities away from a reform agenda a development that may (or may not) have consequences for the recent trajectory in favor of reform by many state and local actors. This interactive discussion explores these crosscurrents in the law, policy, and discourse surrounding our criminal justice system.
