Democracy, Universalism and Informal Employment: The Committee on Freedom of Association and South Asia
No full textThis chapter focuses on how the CFA has influenced democratic processes and trade union rights in South Asia, particularly in relation to the intersection between political and labour rights and the relationship between trade union rights and civil liberties. Ms Sankaran illustrates this relationship by referring to a number of cases in the region in which emergency regulations have impacted on the daily exercise of trade union rights, with reference to the guidance provided by the CFA in this respect. She also recalls the large numbers of workers in the informal economy in the region, who are restricted in the exercise of their right to organize and bargain collectively in law or practice. She highlights the challenges faced by these workers in having recourse to the CFA and suggests avenues for greater access by all workers to meaningful protection of these rights
The Centennial of Meyer and Pierce: Parents’ Rights, Gender-Affirming Care, and Issues in Education
No full textThis paper was prepared for a Symposium marking the centennial of the Supreme Court’s decisions in Meyer v. Nebraska (1923) and Pierce v. Society of Sisters (1925). At their inception, Meyer and Pierce reflected constitutional principles of economic freedom and parental control of their children’s education. Part I traces the path of ideas put in motion by Meyer and Pierce. These include the decline of their economic freedom component and the broader grounding of their doctrines of parental authority. Eventually, the chameleon-like legacy of Meyer and Pierce stretched to include First Amendment concerns of religious exercise and knowledge acquisition, as well as Fourteenth Amendment themes of minority vulnerability, family privacy, and parental concerns beyond education.
Part II searches for lessons from the Meyer-Pierce legacy in several contemporary contexts. Part II.A. focuses on a culture war clash in which Meyer-Pierce rights seem exceptionally strong -- regulation of parental consent to gender-affirming medical care for minors suffering from gender dysphoria. In the October 2024 Term, the Supreme Court will hear United States v. Skrmetti, a case presenting a challenge to the Tennessee legislation on this subject.
Part II. B. analyzes issues in education. Among these are parents’ rights to control the content of public-school curricula, including instruction about matters of race, sexual orientation, and gender identity; to receive information about gender-related changes in how their children present themselves at school; and to receive financial support of the state in educational choices, including the possibility of religious charter schools. Comparison among these contexts illuminates the many ways in which other, contemporaneous changes in constitutional law influence the shifting shape of parents’ constitutional rights
