Mercy in Immigration Law
What role should mercy play in immigration law? This Article draws on the robust debate in the criminal law about the role of mercy in the hopes of starting a conversation among immigration law scholars and practitioners. Mercy skeptics argue that mercy contravenes justice, while advocates argue that mercy is a necessary countermeasure to the unrelenting harshness of criminal law today. I argue that the problems of mercy in the criminal law are amplified in the immigration law context. The lack of procedural and substantive protections for immigrants, the acceptance of unfettered discretion and lack of oversight of agency action, and the political subordination of noncitizens all push in the same direction—towards sovereign mercy rather than equitable justice. Sovereign mercy can have laudable effects, as when it encourages the creation of humanitarian programs of immigrant admission. But it can also have harmful effects, departing from important rule of law norms and placing recipients outside the law rather than within its protections. I do not seek to resolve these contradictions but rather to draw our attention to them and to encourage scholars and practitioners of immigration law to look critically at the role of mercy
Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson: W&L Law Faculty Panel
On March 27, 2019, the W&L Law Library hosted a panel discussion of Just Mercy, the bestselling true story of a lawyer exonerating the wrongly convicted and representing society’s most vulnerable through the perils of our justice system.
The event continued an annual tradition of faculty panel discussions on popular works of fiction and non-fiction with a connection to the law, featuring perspectives from W&L Law professors David Bruck, Nora Demleitner, Brandon Hasbrouck, and Jon Shapiro. Professor J.D. King moderated the discussion, and librarian Andrew Christensen provided introductory remarks.
Author Bryan Stevenson will speak at the W&L Law commencement ceremony on May 10, 2019.
Please note that, at the speaker\u27s request, Prof. Hasbrouck\u27s audio has been suppressed in this video (46:30 through 58:43)

Forgiveness and Mercy
This paper argues that forgiveness is not best understood in terms of waiving
a requirement of justice, and, specifically, that forgiveness is distinct from mercy. I question some reasons philosophers have given for distinguishing forgiveness and mercy, but argue that the difference between the two notions can be clearly shown by considering the standard grounds for which they are granted. I argue that while mercy involves leniency in the infliction of punishment that is due in accordance with justice, forgiveness primarily concerns the victim\'s feelings and attitudes towards the wrongdoer as a person.

Poetry, Mercy, and the Phenomenology of Justice
What would a phenomenology of justice look like and what role would mercy play in that account? The unruly experiences and lives of the individuals and communities wrapped up in the dramas of justice are paradoxically distant from legal and philosophical reasoning, laundered by rules of evidence for the instrumental exigencies of the former, and frequently effaced by the disciplinary conventions of the latter. One casualty of these habits of reflection is our understanding of the role of mercy in the experience of justice. Wanting to recapture space to imagine the role of mercy in justice, this paper makes an exploratory turn to a world consumed with representing the messy experience of justice and still thick with the language of mercy – to the poetic and narrative world created in the Book of Jonah. Drawing inspiration from a close reading of this mythic tale, I argue that mercy is an essential feature of the phenomenological architecture of justice, requiring us, as it does, to connect abstract judgment with the complexities and exigencies of our concrete conditions. Though distant from contemporary legal and political theory, I argue that mercy in fact remains an uncanny aspect of our experience of justice and so demands a political and legal scholarship that spends as much time reflecting on the sources and nature of mercy as a political virtue, as it does on the demands of reason and the dictates of law alone
RESPON POC HERBAFARM DAN KOMPOS TANDAN KOSONG KELAPA SAWIT TERHADAP DUA JENIS MENTIMUN MERCY (Cucumis sativus L.)
The opportunity to development the cultivation of cucumber quite well in Indonesia. Efforts to increase
production engineering improvements in the addition of nutrients. This research was conducted at UIR
Agro Tourism Unit of Univeresitas Islam Riau Pekanbaru, from March to May 2019. New varieties such
as cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) mutation has a special attraction for example, there was an interesting
morphological characters. The study aims to look the responses POC herbafarm and oil palm empty fruit
bunches (OPEFB) compost for the two types of cucumber mercy (Cucumis sativus L.). Using a completely
randomized design (CRD) factorial with two factors and three replications. First: POC Herbafarm
consists of 4 levels i.e. without herbafarm, POC Herbafarm with 5, 10 and 15 ml/ l of water. Factor two:
OPEFB compost consists of 4 levels i.e. without OPEFB compost, OPEFB compost with 15, 20 and 25
tonnes / ha. The observation of a cucumber plant height at the mercy F1 in combinations treatment
proved H2T2A1 POC herbafarm concentration and dose of OPEFB best compost on cucumbers mercy
F1. In addition, the observation date of flowering was the best treatment along the combinations of 15 ml
/ l herbafarm and 15 ton / ha OPEFB compost. The highest number of fruits obtained from 15 ml / l
herbafarm and 25 ton / ha OPEFB compost treatment for mercy mutants. The Treatment 15 ml / l herbafarm
and 25 ton / ha OPEFB compos, next 10 ml / l herbafarm and 20 ton / ha OPEFB compost prove produce
the highest fruit weight and length for the cucumber mercy F1. The observation of brix, POC herbafarm
concentration and dose of highest OPEFB compost to influence for both types
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
