the greater includes the lesser Explanation: the greater includes the lesser -- ser ud til at være ret kontroversiel i den engelsksprogede verden, og forbindes mere med religion end jura, når man søger på nettet, men der er en diskussion her: http://www.utexas.edu/law/faculty/mberman/vandy-final.pdf ´on the principle that the greater includes the lesser...´ Det er det nærmeste, jeg kan komme i tanker om. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 12 hrs (2008-11-05 13:19:07 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Der er endnu et eksempel her: http://www.fdli.org/pubs/Journal Online/54_4/art4.pdf Often categorized as “intermediate First Amendment scrutiny,” this balancing test has the problem of providing the courts with enormous discretion. To illustrate, the Supreme Court used this test in Posadas de Puerto Rico5 to uphold a paternalistic restriction on casino advertising directed at anyone but tourists. The Court advanced the widely-criticized argument that “the greater power to completely ban casino gambling necessarily includes the lesser power to ban advertising of casino gambling.” Modern-day state legislatures arguably have the power to outlaw almost any product or service. Thus, if taken seriously, this notion that the “greater-includes-the-lesser” essentially would eliminate protection for commercial speech about any product or service other than those that are constitutionally protected, such as books and movies. |
