Joe
Mathewson. The Supreme Court and the press : the indispensable conflict.
Northwestern University Press, 2011. KF4772.M38
2011 Throughout
its history, the Supreme Court has had a contentious relationship with the
press. Yet, the Court and the press provide crucial services for each other
as well: the press educates the public about the Court’s actions, and the
Court is charged with protecting the freedoms on which the press relies. This
book charts the history of this complex dynamic, from the Court’s early
neglect of the First Amendment through the press’s coverage of today’s most
controversial cases. With this history in mind, the author offers a
diagnosis of the current situation and solutions to the present shortcomings
in the relationship between these two essential institutions. |

Annelise
Riles. Collateral knowledge : legal reasoning in the global financial
markets. University of Chicago Press, c2011. K1100.R55
2011 This book argues that financial governance is made not just through top-down laws and policies, but also through the daily use of mundane legal techniques such as collateral by a variety of secondary agents, from legal technicians and retail investors to financiers and academics and even computerized trading programs. The author explores the uses of collateral in the financial markets as a regulatory device for stabilizing market transactions and seeks to demonstrate how these day-to-day private actions can be reformed to produce more effective forms of market regulation. |
