PAUL MAHONEY ∑ Looking for Proof of Law’s Purpose and Effect
No full textPaul Mahoney is a pioneer in the use of empirical methods in legal scholarship.His writings on the federal securities reforms of the 1930s challenge conventional wisdom about the nature of the securities markets of the 1920s and the effects of the statutory reforms.His combination of law and empirical finance inaugurated a new wave of corporate and securities law scholarship that has attracted scholars such as Rob Daines at Stanford and John Coates and Allen Ferrell at Harvard. When he joined the faculty after four years in private securities practice, Mahoney was eager to re-examine the basic assumptions underlying the federal securities laws.“Financial history, like political history, is written by the winners,” Mahoney notes.“The New Dealers wrote extensively on the background of the securities laws, portraying the 1920s as a Dark Age of finance and the federal reforms as necessary to save capitalism from itself.Those conclusions survived almost unchallenged until very recently. ” Mahoney himself has mounted some of the most important and interesting challenges. In an early article, “Mandatory Disclosure as a Solution t
Fossil carotenoids and paleolimnology of meromictic Mahoney Lake, British Columbia, Canada
Get PDFVertical distribution of fossil carotenoids in a sediment core from meromictic Mahoney Lake was studied. Besides okenone and demethylated okenone, lutein and zeaxanthin and-carotene isomers were identified. No carotenoids typical for purple nonsulfur or green sulfur bacteria were detected. The ratio of zeaxanthin to lutein (above 1:1 in all samples) indicates a dominance of cyanobacteria over green algae in the phytoplankton assemblages of the past. Okenone, which is found exclusively in Chromatiaceae, was the dominating carotenoid in all sediment zones.
The oldest sediment layers containing okenone were deposited 11 000 years ago. Between 9000 and 7000 and since 3000 years b.p., Chromatiaceae reached a considerable biomass in the lake. Vertical changes in okenone concentration were not related to changes of paleotemperatures. In contrast, okenone concentrations decreased during periods of volcanic ash input. During most of the lake history, however, mean okenone concentrations were positively correlated with sedimentation rates. This indicates that vertical changes of okenone concentration in the sediment reflect past changes of purple sulfur bacterial biomass in the lake.
According to these results, the past limnology of Mahoney Lake resembled that of the present with a sulfide-containing monimolimnion and a well-developed population of okenone-bearing purple sulfur bacteria
