In this episode, we speak to Nivedita Menon about her new book, Secularism as Misdirection: Critical Thought from the Global South (Duke University Press, 2024; Permanent Black, 2023). Secularism as Misdirection is an ambitious and wide-ranging work, unravelling a term that is perhaps as contentious as it is ubiquitous in discourses of the Global South. Working across political theory, legal history, and religious thought, Menon reveals the dangers of secularism's false promise—likening it to a magic trick that draws "attention from where the trick is happening ... to objects that are made to appear more fascinating." Nivedita Menon is Professor at the Centre for Comparative Politics and Political Theory at Jawaharlal Nehru University in New Delhi. Her previous books include Recovering Subversion: Feminist Politics Beyond the Law (University of Illinois Press, 2004) and the landmark work, Seeing like a Feminist (Penguin/Zubaan, 2012). She has co-authored and edited several volumes, including Power and Contestation: India Since 1989 (2nd edition: Bloomsbury, 2013). In addition to her award-winning work as a scholar and translator, Menon is a prominent public intellectual, whose writing on issues such as academic freedom and feminist politics in India can be read at kafila.online, a vital independent blog that she helped found. Arnav Adhikari is a doctoral candidate in English at Brown University, where he works on the aesthetics and politics of Cold War South Asia. His writing has appeared in Postcolonial Text and Global South Studies, amongst other venues. Learn more about your ad choices.

We're wrapping up our University of Idaho/Moscow series with an episode all about our primary suspect - Brian Kohberger. We're talking about who he is, where he came from, and how the police zeroed in on him as the main suspect in this dreadful crime. We can't say we disagree with them, since he left a well-sanitized trail of medical gloves, categorized garbage and plastic baggies behind him.
"Whither the Looniversity?" - A Podcast on the Miserable State of the American University
Prof. Wax needs no introduction. She is a medical doctor, and is currently a professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania. In the past, she worked in the Office of the Solicitor General in the U.S. Justice Department. In that capacity, she argued before the Supreme Court on over a dozen occasions. Her heterodox ideas (and her willingness to boldly speak them) has made her a target of the institutional left, on campus and off. Here, I ask Prof. Wax whether the university can be reclaimed from the woke ideologues. In addition, we briefly discuss the University of Pennsylvania's repeated attempts to censor and censure her -- and the status of her legal defense.

We've got something extra scary in store for you tonight on Betsy Boss - it's the second part of our University of Idaho murder series and we're getting into the nitty gritty of everything that happened that night. We're delving into the crime scene - how things looked the morning after the murders, who was left standing and our theories as to why. We're also covering the 911 call that has everyone from armchair detectives to experts vexed - why did it take 8 hours from the murder for someone to call the police? We'll be sharing our thoughts and the thoughts of law enforcement. So come on a wild ride with us as we trace the killer's exact steps through 1122 King Road - you'll want to listen to this one in a well-lit, totally secured room!
On today's episode of Betsy Boss, we're addressing a particularly grisly murder mystery - the University of Idaho murder from November, 2022. Four University of Idaho students were killed in the vicious crime: Ethan Chapin, 20, of Conway, Washington; Kaylee Goncalves, 21, of Rathdrum, Idaho; Xana Kernodle, 20, of Avondale, Arizona (she later lived in Post Falls, Idaho); and Madison Mogen, 21, of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. There's a lot that's confusing about this murder from the house where it took place to the fact that it all went down in 25 minutes (or less)! Come set the stage with us so we can dive further into this mystery together next week with thoughts, theories and predictions for the trial which is set for June, 2023.

This week on Womanity-Women in Unity Dr. Amaleya Goneos-Malka talks to Professor Nicola Smit, Dean of the Faculty of Law University of Stellenbosch. We discuss aspects of her vision for the faculty that include spearheading legal education, building capacity and having a deep social impact on communities. We acknowledge the fact that today's graduates will likely work in new careers that don't yet exist. Prof. Smit shares one of her approaches to leadership, which she describes as “leadership constellation”. This view posits that a leader can only be first among equals and provides opportunities for his or her people (stars) to develop themselves and lead in their own areas of expertise, ultimately stiving to develop an organisation that mirrors a constellation of stars (people) that shine brightly leading their respective disciplines and helping each other navigate calm as well as tricky waters. She also reflects on the importance of diverse inputs in teams to bring out the best of team members. We remark on the low representation of women in leadership, noting that the glass ceiling might have shifted but it hasn't disappeared. Efforts need to be undertaken to ensure that where decisions are made there is representation of women. Furthermore, regulatory frameworks should be in place to help share the burden of domestic work that often compromises a woman's ability to participate fully in the labour force. For example, increasing paternity leave is an intervention that would help distribute parental loads. Prof Smit, closes the conversation with a quote from Maya Angelou, “Each time a woman stands up for herself, without knowing it possibly, without claiming it, she stands up for all women.” Tune in for more…
Joined by two experts on the BNPL industry, we first review the types of BNPL products currently available, how they are accessed by consumers, how they generate revenue for industry participants, and potential consumer risks. We then discuss the federal and state laws applicable to BNPL, expectations for CFPB rulemaking or other action, how the U.S. regulatory approach to BNPL compares to the UK approach, and the growing nexus between BNPL and social media platforms. Alan Kaplinsky, Ballard Spahr Senior Counsel, hosts the conversation.
In this episode, Heather Tanana and John Ruple (S.J. Quinney College of Law – University of Utah) discuss their recent NR&E article. Climate change is a global environmental problem, and within the United States, the adverse impacts of our changing climate are falling disproportionately on minority and low-income communities. Native Americans and tribal communities are being impacted in unique ways because of their long and deep ties to landscapes that are subject to rapid environmental changes. The hosts highlight the federal government's legal obligations to protect Native Americans and the lands they occupy as well as the disproportionate impacts climate change is having on tribal communities. Based on a review of over 100 articles and other publications on the nexus between science and law, they identify recommendations on how to better synchronize science and policy to address climate change, including the recognition and utilization of indigenous science.

We first discuss the practicalities and potential impact of implementing Director Chopra's call in a recent blog post for simplification of consumer finance regulations and simple bright-line rules. We then examine the role and objectives of regulation such as predictability and responsiveness to stakeholder input and consider whether the CFPB's current approach to regulation, including its abandonment of official staff commentary updates, furthers those objectives. We also discuss the recent SCOTUS decision in EPA v. West Virginia and consider its implications for future challenges to CFPB actions. Alan Kaplinsky, Ballard Spahr Senior Counsel, hosts the conversation.

Last week's unprecedented leak of an unpublished Supreme Court decision - the first time in the Court's history - has rocked Washington. And the prospect of overturning a 49 year old legal precedent which will take away a woman's right to an abortion at least nationally, is just beginning to sink in. Will other Supreme Court decisions such as legalization of contraception or gay marriage be under threat next ? American society is about to undergo a massive and historic change. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/james-herlihy/message
Overturning Roe v. Wade With Constitutional Scholar & Supreme Court Watcher Steven Schwinn, Professor of Law, University of Illinois, Chicago And Host Richard Levick of LEVICK: Steven Schwinn, Professor of Law, University of Illinois, Chicago and an astute US Supreme Court watcher joins host Richard Levick of LEVICK on an extended episode to discuss the leaked draft decision by Justice Samuel Alito in Dobbs v Jackson Women's Health Organization. The draft portends the reversal of a near half-century precedent and, because of the broad brushstrokes of the draft, raise troubling questions about the future of same sex and interracial marriage, access to contraceptives, the criminalization of abortion where women can be charged with murder and the sanctity of stare decisis. The leak also raises concerns for the sanctity of the Court, which has been battered by the dramatic increase in the use of the “Shadow Docket,” the hijacking of the Merrick Garland appointment and the rush to appoint Amy Coney Barrett and concerns of appointees under oath deliberately misleading the U.S. Senate.

The application of artificial intelligence (AI) to the law has enabled lawyers and judges to predict – with some accuracy – how future courts are likely to rule in new situations. Machine learning algorithms do this by synthesizing historical case law and applying that corpus of precedent to new factual scenarios. Early evidence suggests that these tools are enjoying steady adoption and will continue to proliferate in legal institutions. Though AI-enabled legal prediction has the potential to significantly augment human legal analyses, it also raises ethical questions that have received scant coverage in the literature. This talk focuses on one such ethical issue: the “calcification problem.” The basic question is as follows: If predictive algorithms rely chiefly on historical case law, and if lawyers and judges depend on these historically-informed predictions to make arguments and write judicial opinions, is there a risk that future law will merely reproduce the past? Put differently, will fewer and fewer cases depart from precedent, even when necessary to achieve legitimate and just outcomes? This is a particular concern for areas of law where societal values change at a rate faster than new precedents are produced. This talk describes the legal, political and ethical dimensions of the calcification problem and suggests interventions to mitigate the risk of calcification.

We all love our pets and think of them as part of our families. Even though we might love them as much (or more) than we love people, the legal system does not allow them the same protection. That doesn't mean that there are no rights for animals, in fact, there are many specific laws designated to protect them. In this episode of The Geek in Review, we bring on four experts in researching Animal Laws, not just in the US, but worldwide. We talk with the following members of the American Association of Law Libraries' Animal Law Caucus: Alex Zhang - Law Library Director and Professor of Practice at Washington and Lee University School of Law Stacey Gordon Sterling -Law Library Director and Professor of law - Alexander Blewett III School of Law at the University of Montana Katie Ott - Reference Librarian - Robert Crown Law Library at Stanford University Sarah Slinger - Reference Librarian and Lecturer at Law - University of Miami Law Library Whether it is legal issues ranging from which "parent" gets the pet in a divorce, or how an orangutan is granted "personhood" in Argentina, to animal testing on cute beagles (yes... that's still going on in the US), our experts from the Animal Law Caucus cover these issues and more. Information Inspirations There is a lot of tech opportunities in America, but one of the unrealized places are on Native American Reservations. The Make Me Smart podcast talks with a Native Financial Officer about the upcoming Wiring the Rez conference. One Texas Federal Judge asks if you submit a brief more than 10 pages long, that you make a recording so he can listen to it, rather than read it. Sounds like an opportunity for some talented legal podcasters with better voices than Greg. Despite some of the best efforts to make things better, even allies can come up short when it comes to bias in the workplace. One leader in the Social Justice non-profit area shares her story, and it mirrors some of the same situations we see in the legal industry. To understand Algorithmic Bias, you must first understand the different types of discrimination, and how they apply to the bias. It's very complicated, but here's a primer to get your started.

This week on Womanity – Women in Unity, Dr. Amaleya Goneos-Malka talks to Prof. Cathi Albertyn, who is a Professor of Law and holds the South African Research Chair in Equality, Law and Social Justice at the School of Law - University of the Witwatersrand. Prof. Albertyn’s early work addressed aspects of South Africa’s oppressive past and inequalities, where law served as a tool of oppression. In her later work she focussed on using law for social justice, for instance by participating in the development of South Africa’s new constitution - ensuring that women would be entitled to equality across all spheres of society, she also worked on women’s reproductive rights. In 2018 she was awarded a National Research Foundation South African Research Chair Initiative (SARChI) for: Equality, Law and Social Justice, which she plans to use to develop a postgraduate community and to co-ordinate an initiative on constitutions bringing in the “Voices of the South”.

I get lots of questions from folks interested in agricultural law. What majors should I consider in undergrad? What courses should I take in law school? What does an agricultural lawyer really do? What are your best tips for someone interested in law school? I rounded up some of the best in the business to answer these questions. I'm hoping that by offering different thoughts and perspectives, this episode will be helpful in illustrating there really is no one path to a career in agricultural law. We've got two practicing attorneys. Cari Rincker, a Pace University School of Law alum, owns her own law firm with offices in Illinois and New York City. Amber Miller is a partner at a law firm in Lubbock, TX and went to law school at Drake University. Next up, I interviewed Jennie Zwagerman, a law school faculty member at Drake University who is the incoming Director of the Drake Agricultural Law Center and works in career services.

Sanele Sibanda is a senior lecturer at the School of Law at Wits University in Johannesburg. He was born in Zimbabwe to a Zimbabwean father and a South African mother. His father was involved in the negotiations that led to Zimbabwe gaining independence in 1980. Sanele's areas of teaching include critical constitutionalism and indigenous law reform. We chatted about his student days at the University of Cape Town in the early 1990's, the role of a constitution and the rule of law in building a national identity, and how indigenous/customary law can be better incorporated into our mainstream legal system. The role of the constitution in the ongoing land reform debate in South Afrcia also came up in our conversation.

Employers are increasingly turning to arbitration to reduce the costs and burdens of employment-related litigation. Proponents of arbitration contend it is often less expensive than litigation, frequently quicker, but just as fair. Moreover, proponents argue that employer programs utilizing various alternative dispute resolution techniques may resolve employment disputes early and entirely avoid the need for litigation or even arbitration proceedings.In the wake of the #MeToo movement, however, employment arbitration has come under sustained attack in some quarters of the popular media. According to some, employment arbitration silences victims of unlawful workplace conduct and deprives employees of the opportunity to vindicate their rights. Even before the #MeToo movement turned its focus on arbitration, several recent academic surveys concluded that employment arbitration systematically disfavors employees compared to litigation. In apparent response to such criticisms, legislation has been proposed at the state and federal level in the last year seeking to restrict the use of employment arbitration. How persuasive are these criticisms and how informative are these studies?Featuring: Prof. William H. J. Hubbard, Professor of Law University of Chicago Law SchoolChristopher C.
