Additional Note

Additional Note

Norval Morris, of the University of Chicago, describes plea-bargaining as a poker game played by people who have little personal stake in the outcome, with less concern for the guilt or innocence of the accused than for the need to relieve the overcrowded court calendar. Thus, Dean Morris makes the case for a more principled kind of pre-trial procedure which would bring together all the parties in a case in a judicially-controlled attempt to achieve a just settlement.

700.  Toward a New Jurisprudence: Intentional Law. Nov. 8, 1973.

Additional Note

According to the Center's Harvey Wheeler, criminal law traditionally has relied on negative sanctions: restraint and inhibition backed by threat of punishment. But as our goals and values shift from the pursuit of property and individual betterment to those of social well-being, criminal law as a system of sanctions will no longer suffice. Instead, he argues, we will need a new jurisprudence which will require positive actions rather than inhibit negative ones. Followed by discussion with Harry S. Ashmore, Elisabeth Mann Borgese, Ronald M. Dworkin, Norton Ginsburg, John Greacen, Robert M. Hutchins, Harold Pepinsky, Lord Ritchie-Calder, and John Wilkinson. Criminal Justice Series VII. 2 tapes.

Additional Note

The Center's Lord Ritchie-Calder describes the concept of "triage" as it relates to the world population crisis, where it refers to a system under which available food would be distributed only to those groups who could thereby rehabilitate themselves and become productive. He sees this as a formula for genocide, since whole nations and peoples can be written off as expendable, and urges that we challenge the problem in global terms with ingenuity, competence, and compassion. 2 tapes.

739.  What Is Alcoholism? Mar. 12, 1976.

Additional Note

William Madsen, of the University of California Santa Barbara, explains that there is little agreement among specialists on what causes alcoholism, under what discipline it should be studied, or even how to define it. Biological determinists find its roots in genetic predisposition, endocrine imbalance, or malnutrition; psycho-cultural specialists cite oral frustration or search-for-power drive; while it is seen by others as simply a problem of wrong rather than right behavior.

Additional Note

Dr. Mary Pendery, of the Veterans Administration Hospital in San Diego, identifies the classifications of alcoholism most commonly encountered by treatment specialists and describes their manifestations, citing one of the greatest sources of misunderstanding about alcoholism being the tendency to either lump all alcoholics together or to use extremely oversimplified categorizations.

742.  Alcoholism: The Moral Issue. Mar. 12, 1976.

Additional Note

In this panel discussion, participants examine some aspects of morality that underlie alcoholism: in what ways our various communities and professions are morally responsible for the alcoholic, the ability of the drinker to exercise self-control and to make moral choices, and whether labeling alcoholism as a disease discourages the alcoholic from considering the problem on moral and ethical grounds.

743.  Group Support in Rehabilitation of Alcoholics. Mar. 12, 1976.

Additional Note

William Madsen, of the University of California Santa Barbara, contends that Alcoholics Anonymous has rehabilitated more alcoholics than the combined efforts of medicine, psychology, and psychiatry, because AA, and programs like it, offers the support of a group within which the alcoholic can feel normal while learning to live without alcohol.

Additional Note

David J. Pittman, of Washington University in St. Louis, says that, despite recent gains, the fight for understanding and support for alcoholics is just beginning, as evidenced by insufficient funding for research and treatment, the fractionalization of research efforts, and a continued lack of public awareness and concern, despite it being a major health problem.

745.  Alcoholism: A Shared Responsibility. Mar. 13, 1976.

Additional Note

Dr. Jokichi Takamine, chairman of the American Medical Association's Committee on Alcoholism, states that the medical profession, for the most part, sees only the end results of alcoholism, and so the responsibility for most of the early diagnosis and intervention falls to the rest of us, the family, friends, and fellow workers of alcoholics, and we must learn to recognize the early warning signs and be willing to risk the unpleasantness that such intervention entails.

Additional Note

Nicholas Hobbs, of Vanderbilt University, proposes the creation of a new national policy directed toward re-establishing the family as the primary caring, nurturing, and socializing agency of our society, to counteract policies that have weakened the family by providing external resources to take over its traditional responsibilities.

748.  The Evolution of Sex and the Future of the Family. Sept. 27, 1976.

Additional Note

Anthropologist Paul J. Bohannon, of the University of California Santa Barbara, contends that the family, as an evolutionary response to both human sexuality and child-rearing, is threatened by two fundamental changes which have focused on it simultaneously: the liberation of sex from the reproductive function through reliable contraception, and the redistribution of the social functions of the family among other specialized institutions resulting from technological change and population growth.

749.  Socialization, Sex Roles, and the Family. Sept. 29, 1976.

Additional Note

Lois Hoffman, of the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, observes that many of the traditional differences in male and female roles are diminishing as a result of the different socialization experiences of children, particularly girls, brought about by the profound changes in a woman's role in the American family as both childbearing and childrearing have come to occupy a much smaller proportion of her adult life.

751.  The Modern Family: Expectations and Reality. May 13, 1976.

Additional Note

Psychotherapist Bruno Bettelheim believes that the modern middle-class American family suffers its most serious psychological difficulties as a result of the discrepancy between its present reality and its expectations of what it ought to be, expectations derived from conditions which existed in the past but are no longer characteristic of families, such as the need for all family members to stay and work together in order to avoid extreme emotional, social, and economic deprivation.

Additional Note

Psychologist Elizabeth Douvan, of the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, sees our society as having grown not only more crowded and complex, but also more fragmented, dispersed, and privatized, leaving individuals in need more lonely and isolated than ever before. She recommends the use of public policy to support and enlarge underutilized resources and to develop stronger bonds of community. Followed by discussion with Leonard Borman, Tanis Bryan, Robert J.

Additional Note

David L. Bazelon, Chief Judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, says that if our goal is to reduce street violence, we must look to the conditions that breed crime in the first place, adding that, though the process of eliminating social injustice will be long and painful, there is no other hope for reducing crime in this country.

Additional Note

In this panel discussion, participants debate the merits of theories of efficiency,' individualized justice,' and the root causes of crime' in the face of the sheer volume of cases with which the criminal justice system is expected to deal, and call for increased resources at all levels to expedite the disposition of serious criminal cases.

756.  Toward a Rational Policy on Crime. Apr. 2, 1977.

Additional Note

Congressman Peter W. Rodino asserts that it would be unwise to expect the criminal justice system to spearhead programs that affect the basic social, educational, economic, or political values of large numbers of our citizens in an effort to reduce crime, for other agencies, with different skills and functions, are more appropriate for such programs. Instead, he argues, what the criminal justice system needs to function effectively is clear guidelines set by Congress and state legislatures as to its primary tasks and objectives.

Additional Note

Senator Edward M. Kennedy states his belief that every citizen has a civil right to safety, and that to argue that there can be no crime reform until society is reformed is to direct attention away from the significant steps government can take immediately to fight crime, such as developing a modern comprehensive federal criminal code.

758.  Reordering Our Criminal Justice Priorities. Apr. 2, 1977.

Additional Note

Norval Morris, of the University of Chicago Law School, claims that much of what we give the police and criminal courts to do should not be their responsibility, but should be handled by other administrative tribunals and licensing processes so that these elements of the crime control mechanism do not become overloaded. Thus, while these other bodies see to a broad range of regulatory matters, the police and criminal courts can focus on protecting the populace from violence and predation. Crime Series VI. 2 tapes.

762.  The Impact of Illegal Immigration. Mar. 25, 1977.

Additional Note

In this panel discussion, two sides of the issue of illegal immigration are discussed; the perceived urgency of the problem as seen by officers of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and public officials in areas economically affected by the presence of large numbers of undocumented immigrants is contrasted with the lack of concern, and even support for the presence of undocumented aliens on the part of certain ethnic groups and international humanitarian organizations.

765.  The Case for Restricted Immigration. Dec. 9, 1977.

Additional Note

Garrett Hardin, of the University of California Santa Barbara, argues for restricted immigration on the grounds that it is imperative to achieve population stabilization; and that while accepting a large volume of immigrants may appear to be altruism, it actually is not, for it gives the sending countries no incentive to control their population and depletes the resources of the receiving country.

Additional Note

Jorge A. Bustamante, of Colegio de Mexico in Mexico City, contends that it is misleading to discuss immigration in terms of charity, for the benefits the United States has received from immigration over the years must be taken into account, especially in light of the complex relationship between the U.S. and Mexico and the unique nature of their 2,000-mile shared border.

767.  The Immigration Debate: The "Idealists" vs. the "Realists." Dec. 9, 1977.

Additional Note

John Higham, of Johns Hopkins University, explains how current discussion about immigration policy merely recapitulates the same dynamic that has shaped the debate over the last century: "idealists" who oppose more immigration controls by citing universal moral values, and "realists" who favor stronger controls on pragmatic grounds. In the face of growing agitation for stricter controls, Dr. Higham suggests that the most the idealists can hope for is to keep the restrictionist movement from acquiring a regressive character.

769.  Illegal Immigration and Development Aid. Dec. 10, 1977.

Additional Note

Ronald M. Green, of Dartmouth College, argues that the United States must not make economic aid to countries within close proximity to our borders conditional upon the demographic performance of these nations, but should instead make such assistance "population-directed." Both the urgent necessities of economic aid and population limitation could be addressed, he suggests, by focusing on the health, education, and employment opportunities of women in developing countries.

772.  The Entitlements of Freedom. Dec. 7, 1978.

Additional Note

The doctrine of freedom embraces the principle of entitlement: the idea that each person is entitled to basic economic necessities and the opportunity for full social and cultural self-realization. These words may frame our national mission, but the panelists in this discussion argue that they are idle words for a significant underclass in our society. Unfortunately, a guarantee of a full life for some requires a diminishment in the entitlements of others. The ethical considerations inherent in the problem of conflicting entitlements are discussed by Harry S. Ashmore, Leonard Boudin, Ramsey Clark, Cathleen Douglas, Abe Fortas, and Barbara Jordan.

Harvard University's Vern O. Countryman argues against proposed reforms of the federal criminal code, suggesting that the bill being debated in Congress shows a disregard of Supreme Court rulings that criminal statutes must be specifically drawn and easily comprehended, undermines certain civil rights and liberties guaranteed by the Constitution, and represents an unjustifiable expansion of the reach of federal criminal jurisdiction.

777.  The C.I.A. - Accountability, Secrecy, and Freedom. Dec. 7, 1978.

Additional Note

Stansfield Turner, director of the Central Intelligence Agency, defends the intelligence community from a barrage of criticism over recently-uncovered abuses.

778.  Drafting a Charter for the F.B.I. Dec. 7, 1978.

Additional Note

John Hotis, assistant director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, admits that many of the excesses of the Bureau in the past stemmed from its own failure to evaluate its mission and responsibilities, but also lays some of the blame on the government for failing to provide adequate guidelines. He discusses efforts to provide legislation that will define the Bureau's responsibilities, and warns that a charter that imposes rigid restrictions governing every step of the investigative process could endanger the flexibility the F.B.I. needs to adapt to diverse situations.

780.  Science, Technology, and Freedom. Dec. 8, 1978.

Additional Note

Robert Sinsheimer, of the University of California Santa Cruz, posits that freedom has traditionally been regarded as the protection of the individual from the far greater power of the state, but that we must now consider some newly emergent dangers which threaten individual liberty, such as the power that modern science may give to a small group - or even to an individual - to threaten an entire society, not to mention the very societal controls that such capability may in turn call forth.

Additional Note

Yale University's Robert H. Bork expresses his concern over what he sees as an irresponsible press that seems to believe the public's "right to know" gives them the right to publish anything, even things the public thinks ought not to be known. Professor Bork warns that the backlash such an attitude may create could lead to far greater restrictions on the press than are necessary or beneficial. Douglas Inquiry XII. 2 tapes.
