Many people think human reproductive cloning should be a crime-some states have even outlawed it and Congress is working to enact a national ban. However, if reproductive cloning soon becomes a reality, it will be impossible to prevent infertile couples and others from choosing the technology, even if they have to break the law. While most books on cloning cover the advantages and disadvantages of cloning technology, Illegal Beings describes the pros and cons of laws against human reproductive cloning. Kerry Lynn Macintosh, an attorney with expertise in the area of law and technology, argues that the most common objections to cloning are false or exaggerated, inspiring laws that stigmatize human clones as subhuman and unworthy of existence. She applies the same reasoning that was used to invalidate racial segregation to show how anti-cloning laws, by reinforcing negative stereotypes, deprive human clones of their equal protection rights under the law. Her book creates a new topic within constitutional law: existential segregation, or the practice of discriminating by preventing the existence of a disfavored group or class. This comprehensive and novel work looks at how anti-cloning laws will hurt human clones in a fresh perspective on this controversial subject. Kerry Lynn Macintosh is a member of the Law and Technology faculty at Santa Clara University School of Law. She is the author of papers, articles, and book chapters on the law and technology and has contributed to the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology, Boston University Journal of Science and Technology Law, and Berkeley Technology Law Journal.

New York quartet Sunwatchers drew a line in the sand with their last album "II", a powerful statement of the band's unique brand of spiritual, free-rock, gonzo attitude and a progressive socio-political worldview. "Illegal Moves" is their second album for Trouble In Mind. "Illegal Moves" is the band's most potent blend yet; a heady potion of free-jazz, psychedelia, punk & noise rock that is both tender and ferocious; the perfect soundtrack to smash capitalism and fix our broken system thru sonic

When a disabled spaceship enters Earth's atmosphere, seven members of the advanced Tosok race are welcomed by the world. Then a popular scientist is murdered, and all evidence points to one of the Tosoks. Now, an alien is tried in a court of law-and there may be far more at stake than accounting for one human life.

Interjecting personal experiences into ethnographic writing it is 'a form of self-narrative that places the self within a social context'.

Representing over four decades of work, this monograph by historian Mark H. Haller includes his work on organized crime in Chicago, particularly the origins of John Landesco’s now classic work titled Organized Crime in Chicago (1929), written for the Illinois Crime Survey. Essays on organized crime in both Philadelphia and Chicago, as well as vignettes on Al “Scarface” Capone, Arnold “The Brain” Rothstein, Meyer Lansky, and Max “Boo Boo” Hoff, provide readers with a lively selection of Haller’s commentary. Finally, this book incorporates Haller’s critique of the Mafia model of organized crime and his elaboration of the illegal enterprise model of gangsters and their role in the American subeconomy, including the historical importance of prohibition and 19th century gambling syndicates in urban America.

For two decades David Bacon has documented the connections between labor, migration, and the global economy. In Illegal People he explains why our national policy produces even more displacement, migration, immigration raids, and an increasingly divided and polarized society. Arguing for a sea change in how we think, debate, and legislate about and around immigration, Bacon promotes a human rights perspective in a globalized world.

This incisive volume combines two important issues in contemporary debates over migration: gender and illegal migration. The authors reconsider migration scholarship through the lens of gender in order to investigate definitions of citizenship and the differences in mechanisms of inclusion and exclusion for men and women. Additionally, through applying an interdisciplinary and comparative historical framework that spans the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the volume also produces a comprehensive account of illegal migration in nations and regions such as the United States, the Middle East, Germany, the Netherlands, Great Britain, Mexico, Malaysia, Pakistan, and the horn of Africa.

In the mid-1960s, Fluxus founder George Maciunas became preoccupied with the problem of artists' housing. "Normally the artist requires long unbroken spaces with high ceilings and adequate illumination," he wrote in a manifesto, "and these needs can only be met by commercial lofts." Maciunas saw that New York's numerous underutilized downtown buildings would provide ideal live-work spaces for artists, and in 1967 he bought 80 Wooster Street, creating the first artists' co-op, and one of Manhattan's most buzzing avant-garde hotspots. 80 Wooster Street was home to Trisha Brown, Jonas Mekas and Robert Watts among others, and hundreds of artists, including John Lennon, Yoko Ono, Philip Glass, Hermann Nitsch, Nam June Paik and Andy Warhol showed their work there. Revealing the labyrinthine history and legacy of 80 Wooster St and SoHo through archival photographs, interviews and first-person accounts, Illegal Living offers a definitive excavation of Maciunas' incredible venture.

When a disabled spaceship enters Earth's atmosphere, seven members of the advanced Tosok race are welcomed by the world.

Jonathan Hill's latest work explores the dissimilarities between architects and the institution of architecture. Hill delivers a luminous critique of current architectural institutions and outlines a proposal for the architectural producer, unfettered by convention and responsive to the creativity of the user. An illegal architect questions and subverts the precedents, codes, and laws of architecture. In a project worthy of Marcel Duchamp, The Illegal Architect is serious fun, where architecture can be made of anything, anywhere, anyhow, and by anyone.
