[Nº 329] Carta de Giulio Vismara, catedrático de Historia del Derecho Italiano de la Universidad de Milán, a Manuel J. Peláez

Milano, 16 de diciembre de 1990

Illustre Collega e caro Amico,

Da tempo non avevo Sue notizie. Mi ha fatto molto piacere ricevere la Sua gradita lettera.

Mi scuso di avere tardato a rispondere; questo mese ho tenuto una conferenza a Bologna e un discorso a Paris 5 nella Facoltà di Giurisprudenza, della quale sono dr. h. c. .

Ora posso riprendere contatto con gli Amici e tornare ai miei studi.

Per le bozze scrivo al professor Pérez Bustamante .

Sono lieto che Lei abbia portato a termine la raccolta degli Studi in onore del Padre Gonzalo Martínez Díez , che conosco e stimo da tanti anni e che è stato due volte a Milano nel mio Istituto.

Colgo l’occasione per inviare a Lei i più vivi auguri per il Natale e per un nuovo anno sereno e molti cordiali saluti

[Nº 330] Carta de John D. Leshy, profesor de Indian Law de la Facultad de Derecho de la Arizona State University, a Manuel J. Peláez

Temple, 28 de diciembre de 1990

Dear Professor Peláez,

In response to your letter of December 12 inquiring about our curricular offerings in Indian Law, we teach every (or almost every) year a standard course in federal Indian Law. Either I or, more recently, my colleague Paul Bender, teaches it. The course focuses on jurisdictional disputes in Indian matters between federal, state and tribal governments, including water, hunting and fishing rights, and other property rights. It is similar to courses offered at many other American law schools. The text is one or the other of the two standard casebooks on the subject, Getches & Wilkinson’s Federal Indian Law (West Publishings, 2d edition); or Price & Clinton (joined for the 3d ed. by Newton) Law and the American Indian (Michie Press, 3d ed. forthcoming in 1991).

A few of our other courses (such as the one I teach in water law) touch on Indian law matters from time to time. We have also occasionally offered other more advanced courses in Indian law; Economic Development on Indian Reservations, taught by two Indian practitioners from Alburquerque, New Mexico, as adjunct professors. Last year and again this year Professor Bender is offering a tribal law clinical seminar, which involves a small number of students working directly with governments of nearby Indian tribes on cases in tribal courts and redrafting tribal codes. This latter offering is somewhat unusual in that it, unlike the standard course in federal Indian law, focuses on the internal laws of Indian tribes.

We have been taking steps recently to upgrade our Indian legal programs. I am enclosing a brochure on it which contains more information.

I hope this adequately responds to your query.

Sincerely,

John D. Leshy (firmado y rubricado)
