COLUMBIA LAW REVIEW VOL. 114 JUNE 2014 NO. 5 ARTICLE THE ADMINISTRATIVE ORIGINS OF MODERN CIVIL LIBERTIES LAW Jeremy K. Kessler* This Article offers a new explanation for the puzzling origin of modern civil liberties law. Legal scholars have long sought to explain how Progressive lawyers and intellectuals skeptical of individual rights and committed to a strong, activist state came to advocate for robust First Amendment protections after World War I. Most attempts to solve this puzzle focus on the executive branch's suppression of dissent during World War I and the Red Scare. Once Progressives realized that a powerful administrative state risked stifling debate and deliberation within civil society, the story goes, they turned to civil liberties law in order to limit the reach of that state. Drawing on a wealth of unexplored archival material, this Article inverts the conventional story: It argues that lawyers within the executive branch took the lead in forging a new civil-libertarian consensus and that they did so to strengthen rather * David Berg Foundation Scholar, NYU School of Law; Ph.D.

Rev. John Moorhead, its founding pastor, John Little, its benefactor, as well as congregants Peter and Henry Pelham were members of the Charitable Irish Society, as was the society’s first president, William Hall. 95 “With Good Will Doing Service”: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston (1737–1857)1 CATHERINE B. SHANNON Abstract: The Charitable Irish Society of Boston grew from a small group helping Irish immigrants gain a footing in colonial Boston to a larger, more significant presence in the city’s social and political life. As it grew, the society found itself enmeshed in Boston’s often severe sectarian conflicts, forcing the society to transform from a Protestant organization toward a more broadly inclusive group, taking Irish Catholics into its membership.

  • Chronology (1901 - 1919)
    EMMA GOLDMAN: A GUIDE TO HER LIFE AND DOCUMENTARY SOURCES Candace Falk, Editor and Director Stephen Cole, Associate Editor Sally Thomas, Assistant Editor CHRONOLOGY (1901 - 1919) 1901 January-March Goldman supports herself by working as a nurse in New York City; helps to arrange a U.S. tour for Peter Kropotkin in March and April. Goldman reestablishes friendship with her former lover Edward Brady. April-July Goldman lecture tour begins with a free-speech battle in Philadelphia when she is prevented from speaking before the Shirt Makers Union. Goldman and the organizations that sponsor her talks, including the Single Tax Society, defy police orders; Goldman speaks in public on at least two occasions. On April 14 she speaks at an event sponsored by the Social Science Club; other speakers include Voltairine de Cleyre. Despite the Social Science Club's opposition to Goldman's anarchist views, it passes a resolution protesting the violation of her right to free speech. Speaks in Lynn, Mass., Boston, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, St. Louis, Chicago, and Spring Valley, Ill., on such topics as "Anarchism and Trade Unionism," "The Causes of Vice," and "Cooperation a Factor in the Industrial Struggle." July 15-August 15 Goldman spends a month with her sister Helena, in Rochester, N.Y., traveling briefly to Niagara Falls and to Buffalo, N.Y., to visit the Pan-American Exposition. Early September Goldman visits Alexander Berkman at the penitentiary in Allegheny, Pa., the first time she has seen him in nine years. 1 September 6 President William McKinley shot by self-proclaimed anarchist Leon Czolgosz in Buffalo, N.Y., at the Pan-American Exposition.

  • What Is Communist Anarchism?
    What Is Communist Anarchism? Alexander Berkman Now and After: The ABC of Communist Anarchism New York: Vanguard Press, 1929. Foreward I consider anarchism the most rational and practical conception of a social life m free- dom and harmony. I am convinced that its realization is a certainty in the course of human development. The time of that realization will depend on two factors: first, on how soon existing con- ditions will grow spiritually and physically unbearable to considerable portions of mankind, particularly to the laboring classes; and, secondly, on the degree in which Anarchist views will become understood and accepted. Our social institutions are founded on certain ideas; as long as the latter are gener- ally believed, the institutions built on them are safe. Government remains strong because people think political authority and legal compulsion necessary. Capitalism will continue as long as such an economic system is considered adequate and just. The weakening of the ideas which support the evil and oppressive present-day conditions means the ultimate breakdown of government and capitalism. Progress consists in abolishing what man has outlived and substituting in its place a more suitable environment. It must be evident even to the casual observer that society is undergoing a radical change in its fundamental conceptions. The World War and the Russian Revolution are the main causes of it. The war has unmasked the vicious character of capitalist competition and the murderous incompetency of governments to settle quarrels among radons, or rather among the ruling financial cliques. It is because the people are losing faith in the old methods that the Great Powers are now compelled to discuss limitation of armaments and even the outlawing of war.

CLEMMER Norman, Oklahoma 2008 “THE CITY THAT KNOWS HOW”: SAN FRANCISCO, THE GREAT WAR, AND URBAN IDENTITY A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY Dr. Donald J. Pisani, Chair Dr. Robert L. Griswold Dr. Albert L. Hurtado Dr. R. Warren Metcalf Dr. Zev Trachtenberg ©Copyright by HEATHER A. CLEMMER 2008 All Rights Reserved. To Jason and Jonathan Acknowledgements The process of researching and writing a dissertation is a long, arduous journey, but mercifully not one made alone. At each stop along the way (and some of my stops were longer than others), I received tremendous support and encouragement from mentors, scholars, friends, and family. I would like to start by thanking my advisor, Donald Pisani, for his guidance through this process. I genuinely appreciate his ability to maintain a good humor, despite my many delays, while providing advice and insight that kept me motivated. I would also like to thank the other members of my dissertation committee – Robert Griswold, Albert Hurtado, Warren Metcalf, and Zev Trachtenberg – for their willingness to read this work and provide valuable comments and suggestions. While each member of my committee has contributed to making this a better dissertation, those errors still imbedded in this work are solely my responsibility. I would be remiss here at the end of my graduate experience if I did not also take a moment to thank Steve Gillon.
