From Lujan to Laidlaw: A Preliminary Model of Environmental Standing
No full textIn the short span of eight years, the Supreme Court has issued two seemingly opposite answers to the question of whether Congress has free reign to provide private citizens with standing to redress violations of federal environmental law, when those violations have not produced any discernible harm to the claimants. In his prior scholarship, Professor Maxwell Stearns has developed a model of standing based upon the theory of social choice, which focuses primarily upon constitutional standing rules. The recent doctrinal transformation from Lujan v. Defenders of Wildlife, to Friends of the Earth v. Laidlaw Environmental Services, Inc., has provided a valuable opportunity for Professor Stearns to expand his social choice model and to apply it in the context of statutory standing. In this article, which develops a preliminary model of environmental standing, Professor Stearns considers how bargaining over standing expands the issue spectrum for legislative bargaining as it affects the optimal compliance level under a proposed environmental statute. He then considers the differential signaling value of a citizen suit versus agency enforcement as a proxy for the optimal compliance level of the median member of the enacting Congress. The model of statutory standing, which grows out of this analysis, provides several valuable insights into recent environmental standing cases, and suggests a plausible means of reconciling Lujan and Laidlaw
Parliamentary America: The Least Radical Means of Radically Repairing Our Broken Democracy
No full textAmericans face increasingly stark choices each presidential election and a growing sense that our government can\u27t solve the nation\u27s most urgent challenges. Our eighteenth-century system is ill suited to our twenty-first-century world. Information-age technology has undermined our capacity to face common problems together and turned our democracy upside down, with gerrymanders letting representatives choose voters rather than voters choosing them. In Parliamentary America, Maxwell L. Stearns argues that the solution to these complex problems is a parliamentary democracy.
Stearns considers such leading alternatives as ranked choice voting, the national popular vote, and congressional term limits, showing why these can\u27t solve our constitutional crisis. Instead, three amendments—expanding the House of Representatives, having House party coalitions choose the president, and letting the House end a failing presidency based on no confidence—will produce a robust multiparty democracy. These amendments hold an essential advantage over other proposals: by leaving every member of the House and Senate as incumbents in their districts or states, the amendments provide a pressure-release valve against reforms threatening that status.
Stearns takes readers on a world tour—England, France, Germany, Israel, Taiwan, Brazil, and Venezuela—showing what works in government, what doesn\u27t, and how to make the best features our own. Genuine party competition and governing coalitions, commonplace across the globe, may seem like a fantasy in the United States. But we can make them a reality. This rare book offers an optimistic vision, explaining in accessible terms how to transform our troubled democracy into a thriving parliamentary America.https://digitalcommons.law.umaryland.edu/books/1140/thumbnail.jp

Transient electroosmotic flow of general Maxwell fluids through a slit microchannel
No full textUsing Laplace transform method, semi-analytical solutions are presented for transient electroosmotic flow of Maxwell fluids between micro-parallel plates. The solution involves solving the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation, together with the Cauchy momentum equation and the Maxwell constitutive equation considering the depletion effect produced by the interaction between macro-molecules of the Maxwell fluids and the channel surface. The overall flow is divided into depletion layer and bulk flow outside of depletion layer. In addition, the Maxwell stress is incorporated to describe the boundary condition at the interface. The velocity expressions of these two layers were obtained respectively. By numerical computations of inverse Laplace transform, the influences of viscosity ratio mu, density ratio rho, dielectric constant ratio of layer II to layer I, relaxation time , interface charge density jump Q, and interface zeta potential difference on transient velocity amplitude are presented
Defining Dicta
No full textIn recent decades, legal scholars have devoted substantially greater attention to studying the origin and nature of stare decisis than to defining the distinction between holding and dicta. This appears counterintuitive when one considers, first, that stare decisis applies only to holdings of announced precedents, and second, that beyond problematic and rudimentary intuitions, the legal system has failed to develop meaningful definitions of these terms. While lawyers, legal scholars, and jurists likely assume that they can identify dicta when they see it, a careful analysis that categorizes the range of judicial assertions in need of proper characterization reveals that defining holding and dicta is more complex than the general trend of recent scholarship would suggest.
In this Article, Professors Abramowicz and Stearns provide a comprehensive yet accessible framework for identifying the categories of assertions requiring classification as holding or dicta; a normative and positive framework for setting up a holding-dicta classification scheme; and, most importantly, a definition that resolves most if not all of the difficulties revealed in the course of their analysis. The authors develop a theoretical model that explores the nature and limits of stare decisis as a mechanism for constraining judicial behavior, and they explain the importance of clarity in the understanding of holding and dicta within a precedent-driven system of law. After critiquing the most influential definitions of holding and dicta, the authors offer and defend their own: A holding consists of those propositions along the chosen decisional path or paths of reasoning that are actually decided, are based upon the facts of the case, and lead to the judgment. A proposition in a case that is not holding is dicta

A Beautiful Mend: A Game Theoretical Analysis of the Dormant Commerce Clause Doctrine
No full textWhile the Commerce Clause neither mentions federal courts nor expressly prohibits the exercise of state regulatory powers that might operate concurrently with Congressional commerce powers, the Supreme Court has long used the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine to limit the power of states to regulate across a diverse array of subject areas in the absence of federal legislation. Commentators have criticized the Court less for creating the doctrine than for applying it in a seemingly inconsistent, or even haphazard way. Past commentators have recognized that a game theoretical model, the prisoners\u27 dilemma, can explain the role of the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine in promoting cooperation among states by inhibiting a regime of mutual defection. This model, however, provides at best a partial account of existing dormant Commerce Clause doctrine, and sometimes seems to run directly counter to actual case results. The difficulty is not the power of game theory to provide a positive account of the cases or to provide the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine with a meaningful normative foundation. Rather, the problem has been the limited choice of models drawn from game theory to explain the conditions in which states rationally elect to avoid mutually beneficial cooperative strategies with other states. Professor Stearns shows how a state might avoid cooperation in a situation not captured in the prisoners\u27 dilemma account to disrupt a multiple Nash equilibrium game, thus producing an undesirable mixed-strategy equilibrium in place of two or more available pro-commerce, pure Nash equilibrium outcomes. At the same time, the defecting state secures a rent that only becomes available as a consequence of the pro-commerce, pure Nash equilibrium strategies of surrounding states and that is closely analogous to quasi-rents described in the literature on relational contracting. The combined game theoretical analysis, drawing upon the prisoners\u27 dilemma and multiple Nash equilibrium games, not only explains several of the most criticized features of the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine and several related doctrines, but also underscores the proper normative relationship between the dormant Commerce Clause doctrine and various forms of state law rent seeking
Structure-Preserving Low Rank Tensor Methods For The Vlasov-Poisson And Vlasov-Maxwell Systems
No full textThe main computational challenges of solving the Vlasov systems include the high dimensionality of the phase space, nonlinearity, and inherent conservation properties, among others. This dissertation includes two projects. First, we develop a novel Local Macroscopic Conservative (LoMaC) low rank tensor method for the Vlasov-Maxwell (VM) system, and then we extend our method to two species Vlasov-Poisson (VP) as a continuation of previous work (arXiv:2207.00518). The method takes advantage of the tensor friendly structure of the Vlasov equation and employs the low rank hierarchical Tucker decomposition to approximate the Vlasov solution in high dimensions. Hence, the curse of dimensionality can be mitigated. Furthermore, to realize the LoMaC property, the algorithm simultaneously evolves the conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy alongside the Vlasov equation using a high order conservative method with the kinetic flux vector splitting. By a conservative orthogonal projection, the low rank solution is guaranteed to have the same macroscopic observables updated from the conservation laws. A collection of numerical tests on the VM and two species VP systems are presented to demonstrate the efficiency and efficacy of the proposed algorithms.Embargo status: Restricted until 09/2028.

Sensory and motor neuronal networks of the spinal cord
No full textThis body of work is focused upon neuronal networks of the spinal cord which are
involved in processing of sensory information and generation of motor output. It
includes a detailed account of the synaptic organisation, target neurons and
neurotransmitter content of central terminals of various classes of cutaneous and
proprioceptive primary afferent axons. It shows that presynaptic boutons at
axoaxonic synapses, which regulate primary afferent transmission, contain GABA
but that other transmitters such as glycine, neuropeptide Y and acetylcholine may
be co-localised in these structures. The principal conclusion is that certain subtypes
of presynaptic inhibitory interneurons target the terminals of specific types of primary
afferent fibres but the majority of these neurons do not from 'pure' presynaptic
inhibitory systems because many of them also mediate postsynaptic inhibition. A
further series of investigations provides a detailed analysis of the organisation of
monoaminergic axon terminals and the receptors that they act upon. This work
supports the existence of two parallel modes of action for monoamines in the cord; a
diffuse (non-synaptic or paracrine) system and a specific system which acts through
direct synaptic actions on particular target neurons. Serotonin, for example, acts as
a general modulator but also regulates transmission in some pathways selectively.
Amongst the cells that are targeted selectively, are interneurons in reflex pathways
and a class of projection neuron which receives monosynaptic input from
nociceptive primary afferent axons. More recently, the focus has been on the
organization and neurochemical properties of spinal interneurons. Until recently,
there were few satisfactory classifications of spinal interneurons and the relationship
between functional and structural properties of such cells was unclear. A detailed
analysis of interneurons has shown that there is a clear relationship between the
action of a given interneuron (i.e. whether it is inhibitory or excitatory), its axonal
projections and the classes of cell that it targets. In conclusion, the work reported in
this thesis is an attempt to elucidate neuronal circuits which underlie sensory and
motor processes in the spinal cord by applying modern functional anatomical
approaches.SELECTED REVIEW ARTICLES (PEER REVIEWED):
