Topic: The Frug


In the News (Sun 12 Oct 08)

  
  Mount St Marys College Bookstore,www.msmc-chalon.bkstr.com:eFollett.com
Frug writes with authority and complete mastery of his subject matter, as well as with moving moral conviction.
Frug begins by describing how American law treats cities as subdivisions of states and shows how this arrangement has encouraged the separation of metropolitan residents into different, sometimes hostile groups.
Ultimately, Frug calls for replacing the current legal definition of cities with an alternative based on what he calls "community building"--an alternative that gives cities within the same metropolitan region incentives to forge closer links with each other.

Frug freely acknowledges that existing law not only permits but also encourages suburban municipalities to be as selfish as they can manage to be: to use zoning to exclude the poor while drawing on an affluent tax base to provide their citizens with exclusive access to high-quality services.
Frug also proposes regional “policy juries.” Just as juries are called upon to decide difficult issues in criminal and civil law, so a hundred-member “policy jury” of citizens drawn from around the region could examine controversial issues of regional policy.
Frug then proposes a series of legal strate-gies that would embody a “postmodern conception of local government law.” This involves deconstructing the idea of borders as determinative: “a person’s territorial identity should not be reduced to his or her address” (101).

Jim Throgmorton, associate professor of urban and regional planning and an organizer of Frug's visit, said the Friday afternoon lecture would be of particular interest to a broad range of citizens and public officials.
Frug's lectures will focus on how legal rules shape modern cities, and he will outline a set of alternatives to bring down the walls that now keep metropolitan areas divided into neighborhoods of privilege and poverty, often along lines of ethnicity and race.
Frug's visit is cosponsored by the Graduate Program in Urban and Regional Planning, the College of Law, the Department of Political Science and the Project on the Rhetoric of Inquiry.

 The Gated Menace of "Private Cities"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Rosenthal professor of law Gerald Frug, a specialist in local-government law, worries that private cities are moving America toward a starkly segregated, isolationist society.
According to Frug, urban sprawl lies at the heart of the problem: if moving out of the central city becomes a desirable escape, those left in the city will have no incentive to revitalize it--making it even less desirable.
The chief danger of a city fragmented into homogeneous parts, says Frug, is that it engenders fear of "the other"--and the fewer people one encounters, the larger the pool of "others" grows.

In the course of his analysis, Frug asserted that American law is deeply biased against the emergence of powerful cities an d, by implication, is less restrictive on corporate power.
The third puzzle is the one Frug concentrated on: the limitations on the power of cities to engage in business enterprises.
I argue that Frug exaggerated city "powerlessness" and failed to mention the many legal advantages--particularly tax advantages--a cit y now has when it competes with a private organization.}{\cgrid0 \par }\pard \nowidctlpar\adjustright {\cf1\cgrid0 \par }\pard \qj\nowidctlpar\adjustright {\cf1\cgrid0 I have deliberately tailored this Article to fit the symposium.

 Frug, G.E.: City Making: Building Communities without Building Walls.
As Gerald Frug shows, this divided and inhospitable urban landscape is not simply the result of individual choices about where to live or start a business.
A Harvard law professor and leading expert on urban affairs, Frug presents the first-ever analysis of how legal rules shape modern cities and outlines a set of alternatives to bring down the walls that now keep city dwellers apart.
Frug argues saliently that a city's character is shaped as much by its residents' perceptions of their civic responsibility as by its built environment."--Publishers Weekly

 Word Spy - frug
Frug is an acronym that comes from the phrase "fundraising under the guise of" market research.
I managed to date this word to 1991, and the earliest citation suggests that it's based on an existing verb, sug, "selling under the guide of market research" (which I traced back to the mid-80s):
'Sugging' and 'frugging,' selling and fund-raising under the guise of legitimate marketing research, are among the culprits, according to NFO Research."

I never could agree with Frug's general attack on the Dawson casebook; I think that in fact, and fortuitously (since I don't believe that Frug knew any of this background) the Parker case really did involve issues of feminism and equality.
