  • Sep 12 Dress, Law, and the Naked Truths: A Cultural Study of Fashion and Form 12:15 PMLaw School 3043

    Why are civil authorities in so-called liberal democracies affronted by public nudity and the Islamic full-face veil? Why is law and civil order so closely associated with robes, gowns, suits, wigs and uniforms? Why is law so concerned with the evident and the need for justice to be seen to be done? Why do we dress and obey dress codes at all? In his lecture, Professor Gary Watt from the University of Warwick (UK) will address deep cultural connections between dress and law, drawing a revealing history of dress and civil order and offering challenging conclusions about the nature of truth and the potential for individuals to fit within the forms of civil life.

  • Feb 21 44th Annual DLJ Administrative Law Symposium: Taking Administrative Law to Tax 9:00 AMTBD

    The foundations of settled law are shifting as courts begin to apply administrative law doctrines to the rather insular world of tax administration. These developments present an ideal opportunity to reflect on the general validity and utility of both general administrative law principles and statutory commands of the APA. Is tax administration somehow fundamentally different from administration in other areas? Does what happens in tax call into question any important assumptions or practices in general administrative law? Are there reforms that might usefully be made, either in general administrative law rules or in tax administration? These are the questions for reflection as the Symposium takes administrative law to tax. For more information, please contact Devon Damiano at devon.damiano@lawnet.duke.edu.
