AALS SECTION ON JEWISH LAW March 2013 Newsletter

Section Officers: Michael A. Helfand Chair Pepperdine University School of Law Adam Chodorow Chair-Elect Sandra Day OConnor College of Law (Arizona State University) Mark D. Rosen Secretary IIT Chicago-Kent School of Law Timothy D. Lytton Treasurer Albany Law School David C. Flatto Immediate-past Chair Penn State Law School ***** Dear Members of the Jewish Law Section, Welcome to the 2013 newsletter for the AALS Section on Jewish Law. While this Section has not circulated a newsletter in recent years, we are hopeful that this years newsletter will begin a new trend, updating members of the Jewish Law Section on the previous years program at the AALS Annual Meeting, sketching tentative plans for the program at the coming years AALS Annual Meeting, and alerting members of the Section to Jewish Law conferences. In addition, this newsletter includes a bibliography of Jewish Law books and articles published in the past year, which we hope will be of interest to the Sections membership. As with all bibliographies, we suspect the one provided is incomplete especially given the heavily interdisciplinary nature of Jewish Law and we look forward to circulating a revised version based on any suggested additions we receive from the Sections membership. Sincerely, Executive Committee Roberta Kwall Member DePaul University College of Law Samuel Levine Member Touro Law Center Chaim Saiman Member Villanova University School of Law Keith Sharfman Member St. Johns University School of Law

2013 AALS ANNUAL MEETING PROGRAM

Section on Jewish Law: Exploring Paradoxes and Anomalies in Jewish and Comparative Law. Sunday, January 6, 2013, 10:30 a.m. 12:15 p.m. Newberry, Third Floor, Hilton New Orleans Riverside David C. Flatto, Penn State Law School Perry Dane, Rutgers School of Law Camden Steven D. Smith, University of San Diego School of Law Shay Wozner, Research Fellow, Tel Aviv University, The Buchmann Faculty of Law, Tel Aviv Israel

Moderator: Speakers:

Organized by Immediate-past Chair David Flatto, the Section on Jewish Law hosted a program titled Exploring Paradoxes and Anomalies in Jewish and Comparative Law. The AALS Program Guide provided the following description of the panels topic: Jewish law has various rules that seem very difficult to fathom from a comparative perspective, and sometimes are challenging to understand from its own internal discourse. To give a couple of examples: the evidentiary rule that bans guilty confessions in rabbinic court; and the rule that if the entire court votes to convict in a capital case, the defendant goes free. How can a legal system operate with such rules, and why would they be adopted? These rules seem especially anomalous relative to other legal systems where confession and unanimity are seen as optimal modes of evidence and judicial administration. A parallel question can also be raised for all legal traditions, including American law. For example, scholars have written much about anomalies found in the rule against perpetuities, the rules and exceptions of hearsay, and a number of anomalies in the U.S. Constitution. These writings usually seek to expose these anomalies in order to propose reform, which is frequently the best plan of action. But this same phenomenon can be examined more analytically as a wider feature of legal traditions. All legal systems have various rules that are anomalous, and yet sometimes they are firmly entrenched. Why is this? Are these rules ways of putting a distinct signature on a legal tradition? do they start to ironically become emblematic of a given legal tradition? Are they so familiar that people become blind to their anomalous nature? Does this reflect an inherently conservative disposition of legal traditions? Does this tell us something about the culture of law? This panel will explore the larger phenomenon or specific examples of anomalies or paradoxes in Jewish law, and try to understand their etiology, impact or even justification. It will also reflect on the parallel phenomenon in general jurisprudence. The program was on all accounts a success, drawing between thirty and forty attendees and giving rise to lively debate and discussion between the panelists and the audience.

2014 AALS ANNUAL MEETING PROGRAM

For the 2014 AALS Meeting, the Jewish Law Section is planning to jointly sponsor a two-panel program with the Islamic Law Section. I am in the process of coordinating the details of this program with the chair of the Islamic Law Section, Seval Yildirim (Whittier Law School). The tentative title for the program is Islamic and Jewish Law in the 21st Century: Contemporary Challenges to Religious Law. The tentative titles for the two panels are (1) Religious Law in U.S. Courts and (2) Religious Law in the Secular State.

JEWISH LAW BIBLIOGRAPHY FOR 2012-PRESENT

Below we have compiled a Jewish law bibliography that includes selected books and articles published in the last year. Also identified below are certain specialty journals focusing on Jewish law. While we have tried to collect as much of the relevant literature as possible, we recognize that we have likely omitted important work for the current listing. If you have additional publications you believe should be included in this bibliography, please contact Jodi Kruger (Jodi.kruger@pepperdine.edu) who has expended extraordinary effort under some time constraints to put this bibliography together. On or about June 1, 2013, we will circulate a revised version with any additional publications suggested by members of the Section.
