  • Cambridge Handbook of Experimental Political Science
    Cambridge Handbook of Experimental Political Science Laboratory experiments, survey experiments, and field experiments occupy a central and grow- ing place in the discipline of political science. The Cambridge Handbook of Experimental Political Science is the first text to provide a comprehensive overview of how experimental research is transforming the field. Some chapters explain and define core concepts in experimental design and analysis. Other chapters provide an intellectual history of the experimental movement. Throughout the book, leading scholars review groundbreaking research and explain, in per- sonal terms, the growing influence of experimental political science. The Cambridge Handbook of Experimental Political Science provides a collection of insights that can be found nowhere else. Its topics are of interest not just to researchers who are conducting experiments today, but also to researchers who believe that experiments can help them make new and important discoveries in political science and beyond. James N. Druckman is Payson S. Wild Professor of Political Science at Northwestern Univer- sity. He has published articles in journals such as the American Political Science Review, American Journal of Political Science, and Journal of Politics. He is currently the editor of Public Opinion Quarterly. Professor Druckman’s research focuses on political preference formation and com- munication, and his recent work examines how citizens make political, economic, and social decisions in various contexts. Donald P. Green is A. Whitney Griswold Professor of Political Science at Yale University. He is the author of four books and several dozen articles on a wide array of topics, including partisanship, campaign finance, voting, and prejudice. Since 1998, his work has focused on the design, implementation, and analysis of field experiments.

  • Fall 2010 Law School Briefs
    Contents FEATURES Making the Grade: Eight New Faculty Members Join Brooklyn Law School 23 In this feature we are proud to introduce the newest members of our BLS community: Bradley Borden, Adam Kolber, Gregg P. Macey, Samantha Amdursky, Mark Noferi, Jessica Attie, Margo Kaplan and Jane Yakowitz. These professors bring not only considerable professional experience, but also an impressive body of scholarship in the areas of tax, environmental justice, health law, bioethics and neuroethics, and data privacy. On the Road to the American Dream: Brooklyn Law School Leads the Way in Immigration Law 30 By Andrea Strong ’94 and Stephanie Staal ’10 Immigration issues have dominated the news headlines in recent years, and Brooklyn Law School is making a name for itself in the field. The Law School has produced an impressive group of judges and advocates working in all aspects of immigration law — from big firm practice to nonprofit organizations, from government to small law firms. In this feature we share some of their stories, and we also highlight some of the exciting changes in our curriculum that have inspired our students to begin their career as immigration lawyers. Cooperation’s Cost: A Look at the Real Price of Criminal Cooperation 40 By Professor Miriam Baer Fans of “The Wire” will want to read this insightful and provocative piece that explores the true effects of cooperation on potential offenders. Professor Baer argues that while cooperation is often useful, when used improperly, it may create more problems than it solves. This is particularly the case when defendants experience a Sanction Effect, in which criminal behavior may be encouraged (or at least not deterred) because of the belief that their ultimate punishment will be reduced as a result of their opportunity to become cooperators.

    Attached is the post-event press release and Dinner Journal for the FBA EDNY chapter “Honoring Our Own” event. The PDF file of the Dinner Journal has been optimized for screen viewing. ________________________________________________________________________ On December 5, 2012, the FBA EDNY Chapter celebrated the lives and careers of five of its most treasured Jurists for their service to the Country as WWII veterans and as Article III Judges for the United States EDNY. This unique distinction belongs to the EDNY through the service of the: Hon. Leonard D. Wexler; Hon. Jack B. Weinstein; Hon. Arthur D. Spatt; Hon. Thomas C. Platt; and, Hon. I. Leo Glasser. The program was hugely successful. Upwards of 200 attendees, including most of the Judges, Magistrates and Bankruptcy Judges for the EDNY, and various other dignitaries, enjoyed a wonderful evening of dining, entertainment (an Andrews Sisters cover act), speeches and presentations to the Honorees. We also distributed a tastefully designed Dinner Journal to each attendee. The Journal had wonderful thematic components including profiles and interviews of the Honorees as well as congratulatory ads placed by law firms of all sizes, sole practitioners, past and present law clerks and others. The venue for the program was the American Air Power Museum (“AAPM”), located in Farmingdale, New York. The AAPM provided the perfect backdrop for our event in that it boasts among its collection many actual WWII vintage planes and other memorabilia from the war. We opened the ceremonies with a Color Guard procession, pledge of allegiance and live performance of the National Anthem. The FBA’s own National President, Bob DeSousa, and past National President, Jim Richardson, were kind enough to take the time out of their busy schedules to attend as our Guest Speakers.
