that, from any coherent normative perspective, these guidelines increased sentence disparity. He described the rule barring the use of illegally obtained evidence as one of the law's success stories but called the Supreme Court's ruling in Miranda v. Arizona a failure. In a paper that received the Green Bag Exemplary Legal Writing Award, he advocated limiting corporate criminal liability, comparing it to the practice of punishing inanimate objects. Among the other subjects he addressed were racial profiling, discriminatory jury selection, police hunches, bribery standards, courtroom misconduct, preventive pretrial detention, the limits of the presidential pardon power, the ethics of the O.J. Simpson defense team, the criminality of Donald Trump, and the changing purposes of criminal punishment. Legal history In an award-winning work, Rediscovering Blackstone, Alschuler described the impact of Sir William Blackstone's work on American law and defended Blackstone's jurisprudence against modern critics. In Law without Values: The Life, Work, and Legacy of Justice Holmes, he examined how Holmes’ moral skepticism dominated his opinions and scholarly writings. Judge Morris B. Hoffman commended this study as "stunningly new and original." Together with Andrew G. Deiss, Alschuler examined the history of the criminal jury in the United States, chronicling how the jury's influence on American civic life declined as its composition became more democratic. With Richard Helmholz and others, he described how the privilege against self-incrimination changed from one doctrine to another without much recognition of its sharp transformations.
