The Author of Roe
No full textIn her commentary, Professor Radhika Rao focuses upon Justice Blackmun\u27s landmark opinion in Roe v. Wade, exploring the ways in which the Justice shaped and was in turn shaped by the abortion conflict. After describing Roe, she sets forth and responds to a wide range of criticisms of the decision. She then turns her attention to several other abortion and privacy cases, drawing some general insights into Justice Blackmun\u27s jurisprudence. She highlights Justice Blackmun\u27s concern for factual context and his compassion for the real people behind the cases he decided. Professor Rao connects these qualities with Justice Blackmun\u27s opinion in Roe, suggesting that his empathy for the oppressed stemmed in part from his longstanding association with the abortion issue, an issue which heightened his awareness of the plight of women, particularly poor, minority, and under-aged women. Professor Rao concludes that, while Justice Blackmun defined the boundaries of abortion law in Roe, Roe also played a critical role in defining him and in driving many other areas of his jurisprudence

And All The Men We Saw Today: Sensory Audio Walk
No full textAnd All the Men We Saw Today has evolved through a creative response to Man Food, a participatory research project looking at men, protein and the environment. This audio walk weaves together first-hand stories of men and food with music, sound and moving. It's a journey through the streets of Bedminster that opens up a space for reflection. It offers a moment or two to stop. think and feel about the everyday stuff of men, their food and their bodies, that we often take for granted. Man Food is led by Dr Emma Roe and Dr Paul Hurley, University of Southampton, with Windmill Hill City Farm and the Matthew Tree Project
Settlement of Investment Disputes under the Energy Charter Treaty
No full textThe Energy Charter Treaty has come of age, with almost 50 States parties and a small but growing body of arbitral case law. In this new study of the Treaty's investment protection provisions, Thomas Roe and Matthew Happold set out to identify and explain the Treaty's principal provisions and to suggest answers to some of the difficult problems thrown up by its drafting. They discuss in detail questions such as the standards of protection granted by the Treaty and the international responsibility of States for breaches of the Treaty, the various procedures available for the vindication of rights under the Treaty and the conditions to be satisfied before a claimant's complaint may be considered on the merits. Specific issues addressed include the impact of EU law on claims under the Treaty and the Treaty's provisions concerning taxation.</jats:p

No full textBounded Derivations and the Hochschild Cohomology of Uniform Roe Algebras
No full textWe first show that for a uniform Roe algebra associated to a bounded geometry metric space X, all bounded derivations from that uniform Roe algebra to itself are inner. We obtain this result using a “reduction of cocycles" method from Sinclair and Smith. Then the key technical ingredient comes from recent work of Braga and Farah in their paper “On the Rigidity of Uniform Roe Algebras".That all bounded derivations are inner is equivalent to the first norm continuous Hochschild cohomology group vanishing. It is then natural to ask if all the higher groups vanish. While we cannot answer this question completely, we are able to give necessary and sufficient conditions for the vanishing of the norm continuous Hochschild cohomology of a uniform Roe algebra. Lastly, we show that if the norm continuous Hochschild cohomology of a uniform Roe algebra vanishes in all dimensions then the ultraweak-weak* continuous Hochschild cohomology of that uniform Roe algebra vanishes also.Ph.D
