Dwight Duncan and Richard Mohr: Who Should be Allowed to Marry: The Same Sex Debate
No full textA debate on issues surrounding same-sex marriage.
Dwight Duncan, a professor at the Southern New England School of Law, is one of the nation\u27s leading conservative authorities on legal ethics and constitutional law. He has written extensively about First Amendment rights, euthanasia and same-sex marriage, and has participated in many legal debates on gay and lesbian rights.
A practicing member of the Supreme Court of the United States Bar, Duncan is the principal co-author of the Supreme Court briefs on the prevailing side of Hurley v. Irish-American Gay, Lesbian and Bisexual Organization, in which the court ruled that forcing a veteran\u27s group to include a gay faction in its yearly St. Patrick\u27s Day parade violated the First Amendment.
Duncan holds degrees from Harvard University, Georgetown University Law School and the Roman Athenaeum of the Holy Cross in Rome, Italy.
Richard Mohr, author of A More Perfect Union: Why Straight America Must Stand Up for Gay Rights and one of America\u27s foremost gay thinkers, is a professor of philosophy at the University of Illinois. In 1988, he published Gays/Justice, a book documenting gay public policy issues, and his Gay Ideas: Outing and Other Controversies, raised national furor in the literary world when almost two dozen publishers refused to print it due to homoerotic representations.
Mohr lectures frequently on topics ranging from anti-gay violence, domestic partnership issues and the implementation of nondiscrimination policies for gays in the workplace

Leadership without authority: Iain Duncan Smith as leader of the Conservative Party
No full textThis chapter analyses the tenure of Iain Duncan Smith as leader of the Conservative Party in opposition between September 2001 and October 2003. It argues that his leadership was fatally undermined by a lack of authority within his own party. This problem was derived in part from the manner of his election, during which he received the explicit endorsement of less than a third of his parliamentary colleagues, but flowed more fundamentally from his limitations as a political leader.
Duncan Smith’s leadership weaknesses are considered in relation to three main themes. Firstly, he was an ineffectual public communicator. As leader of the opposition he had three main audiences to address: the Parliamentary Conservative Party (PCP), the wider party (i.e. the membership), and the electorate. In each case he failed to connect successfully, making little impact with the general public and losing the confidence of his parliamentary colleagues and, eventually, the party members whose votes had installed him as leader. Secondly, his leadership was plagued with party management problems, and as the chapter explores, many of these were self-inflicted and eminently avoidable. Thirdly, the chapter suggest that Duncan Smith’s personality was ill-suited to the role of leader of the opposition, as his handling of moments of crisis demonstrates the difficulties he experienced coping with the pressures of leadership
