AbstractEven though Niklas Luhmann’s general sociology of law has made a substantial impact upon socio-legal scholarship in the Anglophone world in recent years, his first book on the subject to be translated into English has received relatively little attention. The paper presents this as something of an anomaly by highlighting both the relative accessibility of the book and the way in which it has proved foundational for systems theoretical accounts of law in world society. In tracing the book's reception in both Britain and North America, the paper identifies the general problems of timing and communication the book faced. But it also considers whether the relatively humanist undertones of the book's focus on the development of law from the interaction of individuals proves unsettling to the now relatively more accepted concept of law as autopoiesis. The paper concludes, however, that it is this which should recommend the book to a contemporary audience, as offering a more nuanced understanding of Luhmann’s sociology of law and the potential contained therein.

This study tests four hypotheses related to the much-cited work on density and automobile dependence by Newman and Kenworthy, using multivariate analysis and data for 157 large US urbanized areas. We find that density alone explains only a small fraction of the variation in vehicle miles traveled (VMT), and many confounders account for the differences in automobile dependence. We also find that it is not the localized density of individual neighborhoods that causes VMT to be lower in compact urbanized areas but rather the relative accessibility of neighborhoods to the rest of the region.

Abstract In the presence of sulfhydryl compounds nitracrine, an anticancer drug, binds covalently to DNA . The accessibility of DNA in chromatin both to nitracrine and to 8-methoxypsoralen. which was used as a reference compound in this study, when assayed in NaCl concentrations from 0 to 2 m show similar characteristics. The initial decrease reaches a minimum at 0.15 m NaCl above which dissociation of non-histone proteins and histones at higher ionic strengths is demonstrated by an increase in accessible sites. The relative accessibility of DNA in chromatin to nitracrine is, however, lower than that found for 8-methoxypsoralen. Partial dissociation of chromatin with 0.7 m NaCl increases the accessibility of DNA in chromatin when assayed in the absence of NaCl but has no apparent influence when estimated at ionic strength close to physiological conditions.

Relative Accessibility

The dynamic effects of public medical care insurance on access to physician services are examined in this paper. A special definition of access is employed where access is measured as the inverse of the proportion of families of a given economic class who have not used physician services in a given year. Data are presented for the period 1963 through 1968 for a large sample of families in the Province of Saskatchewan in Canada. The evidence suggests that low-income classes have less contact with physicians than high-income classes. This disparity in accessibility is reduced, but not removed, as experience with Medicare increases. It is concluded that public medical care insurance does result in increased relative accessibility to physicians for the low-income classes.
