This is a seminar in the law, history and culture of remedies. It surveys the dominant legal doctrines for providing redress, the relationship between legal rights and traditional legal remedies, as well as the unique, sometimes paradoxical, features of remedies for constitutional violations - especially in the area of civil rights. The seminar also surveys the rich non-legal and interdisciplinary discourses on theories of redress and repair including scholarship on reparations, restorative justice, and rectification. In order to develop a comparative base for assessing the capacity of law to reach and repair complex group-based harms, special attention is given to cultural practices that have emerged to supplement, substitute for, and sometimes subvert legal remedies.
