The Jerome Hall Law Library attempts to obtain at least two copies of all books authored by the Maurer faculty, one for our general collection and one for the faculty writings collection in our Archives Room. Additionally we collect copies of books authored or edited by others, but containing chapters by Maurer faculty. This digital gallery is just a sample of some of the recent books produced by our faculty. If available, links to electronic versions of the book or chapter are included.
Arrangement is by publication year, then by the last name of the faculty member authoring the publication. Use the search box, in the upper left-hand corner, to find a specific author/title.

Legal Rights and Interests in the Workplace
Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt, Clyde W. Summers, and Alan Hyde
This book provides teaching materials for a course merging two areas of law governing the labor market — collective labor law and individual employment law — which have historically been taught as separate courses. These materials represent an effort to interrelate or tie together these two bodies of law into a common framework. The broad premise of the book is that historically and functionally the predominant purpose of labor law has been to protect workers from market forces in the individual labor market. The articulate assumption is that individual bargaining in the labor market will lead to socially undesirable results and that the law here, as in many other areas, should come to the aid of the weaker party. It may do this in two ways: first, employees may be protected by direct regulation of terms and conditions of employment with laws such as minimum wage laws, health and safety laws and prohibitions against discrimination; second, employees may obtain a measure of protection by restructuring the labor market so as to replace individual bargaining with collective bargaining in the belief that the collective labor market will produce more acceptable social results.

Police And Policing Law
Jeannine Bell
This collection of essays focuses on law and society research, examining how police manage the job put to them and the extent to which the law figures in what they do. In step with law and society scholarship, many of the articles are empirical explorations of the ways in which law enforcement works 'on the ground' in a variety of policing contexts ranging from patrol to police interrogation. The collection also includes an introduction outlining the broad scope of police research across the socio-legal tradition as well as a selection of essays evaluating police discretion in the areas of race and gender.

Race, Law and Education in the Post-Desegregation Era: Four Perspectives on Desegregation and Resegregation
Kevin D. Brown
The purpose of this book is to re-examine the Supreme Court's school desegregation jurisprudence and examine the current educational situation of African-American school children with the realization that American society is in the Post-Desegregation Era.
The book advances discussion of racial issues by using the Post-Desegregation Awareness, a conscious awareness that racial phenomena are comprehended against a sub silentio background of a much larger set of ideas about race and ethnicity which limit and structure their perception. The book also examines the Court's school desegregation jurisprudence from the four different conceptual schemes considered by the Post-Desegregation Awareness: Traditional Americanism, African-American Centralism, Secular Individualism, and American Collectivism.
