Sen","doi":"10.18422/73-02","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18422/73-02","url":null,"abstract":"The social contract approach concentrates on identifying perfectly just social arrangements, taking the characterization of \"just institutions,\" along with compliant human behaviour, to be the principal - and often the only identified - task of the theory of justice. Rather than following the contractarian tradition of beginning the exercise by asking what is perfect justice, or what principles should govern the choice of perfectly just institutions for the society, Amartya Sen here argues for asking about the identification of clear cases of injustice on which agreement could emerge on the basis of public reasoning (even in the absence of an agreement on the nature of \"perfect justice\"). In arguing, for example, for the abolition of slavery, as the Marquis the Condorcet, Adam Smith and Mary Wollstonecraft all did, they did not have to seek an agreement on the nature of the perfectly just society, or the characteristics of ideally just social institutions. That is, agreement can be reached on the manifest injustice of particular institutions and behaviour patterns even without having the same view of an ideally just society, or of perfectly just institutions.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126188761","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Anastaplo","doi":"10.18422/73-03","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18422/73-03","url":null,"abstract":"That great byproduct of the scientific enterprise, technology, has opened the way to what we know as globalization, making it easy to abandon thereby the age-old question of what size community is best for the human being and for justice, a question reflected in what Aristotle had to say about the merits (as well as, perhaps, about the limitations) of the polis. Does the opening to globalization mean that we can no longer believe that we can (or even should) ever again control our lives by shaping the communities in which we live? This essay explores this issue drawing for inspiration upon a variety of literary texts, ancient and modern, including works by Shakespeare, Euripides, Aristophanes, and Aeschylus.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126335266","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Orwell, Jones and the New York Times: 奥威尔、琼斯和《纽约时报》:

{"title":"Orwell, Jones and the New York Times:","authors":"Dale Barleben","doi":"10.18422/73-11","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18422/73-11","url":null,"abstract":"The conversations among Orwell’s Nineteen Eight-Four, the US Supreme Court decision in United States v. Jones, and the New York Times compellingly illustrate the ways “law feeds and is fed by the world around it,” as Judge Guido Calabresi once put it. A suspected drug dealer, Antoine Jones was convicted and sentenced to life in prison at trial, but the case was overturned on appeal. The U.S. Supreme Court had to decide whether using a GPS tracking unit on the suspect’s vehicle violated Jones’ constitutional rights. Both lawyers and judges spoke often about whether this surveillance technique brought the U.S. closer to a state akin to the one in Nineteen Eight-Four. The New York Times covered this story, adding media sensationalism to the events. This article explores the legal development of privacy and surveillance at a specific historical moment, as it relates to both Orwell’s text, and the media at the nexus of privacy. One of the main issues was whether a U.S. citizen might reasonably expect a GPS tracking unit to trace their every movement, and exactly where that reasonable expectation of privacy ends. We see that technology has far outstripped even what Orwell envisioned in his dystopian masterpiece, and that only conscious resistance and legal protection can reverse what has often and ironically become a “voluntary” surrendering of the right to privacy.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116985561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Defenders of Racial Justice","authors":"B. Thomas","doi":"10.18422/73-09","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.18422/73-09","url":null,"abstract":"The best way to explore the confluence of law and literature from ratification of the Reconstruction amendments to Plessy is to focus on the career of a little known figure, the lawyer-novelist Albion W. Tourgée, and his relationship to Samuel Phillips, a lawyer who would become the second Solicitor General of the United States. This essay traces their efforts to achieve some semblance of racial justice in the post bellum South, and how eventually these two came to defend Homer Plessy in the infamous Plessy v Ferguson case (which established the separate but equal doctrine). In examining Plessy, this essay reveals how the structure of that defense could be traced to Tourgée's fiction, and how their defense, and its echoes, which extend to Brown v Board of Education and beyond, help to prove the old adage that truth often proves to be stranger than fiction.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133324698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ways journalists frame stories about Latino immigration at the southwest border can have devasting consequences for Latino communities living and residing in the United States. Poets have been quick to respond to misleading, and often pervasive, representations. In previous essays, I have introduced a figure of diverse social and cultural background who testifies against dominant media narratives in the public sphere. I call this figure the transcultural counterwitnesss. This essay turns to Anthony Cody’s Borderline Apocrypha to investigate how his experimental collection offers new consideration of Latino-American identity through its engagement with the longstanding stereotypes in the American public sphere. By observing the transcultural impulses of Cody’s work, this essay explores the ways Borderland Apocrypha experiments with poetic form and voice to provide more insightful considerations of American identity politics and examines how his collection engages with, and opposes, the longstanding stereotypes of Latino communities. A greater transcultural awareness illustrates the ways past violence influences and emerges with contemporary realities and invites readers to contemplate Latino identity in contemporary American culture.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129205537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each of these scholars has endeavored in their work to address this crisis, in one way or another. For Professor Sen, the crisis is global in scope, and its solution also needs to be global. For Professor Anastaplo, the crisis of justice is local, and situatied in the West, and is a consequence of the break from the Western classical tradition of political philosophy and the way it treated justice, a break for which Niccolò Machiavelli can be considered initially responsible. This essay contrasts the thought of these preeminent scholars on justice, without attempting to prefer one's view over the other.","PeriodicalId":221210,"journal":{"name":"New American Studies Journal","volume":"93 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126381544","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
