Worth watching: UCLA Law Professor Eugene Volokh and his brother have a new blog. Also, here’s a Harvard Law Review article by Volokh on slippery slope arguments:
My aim is fundamentally descriptive: I want to analyze the various kinds of slippery slope arguments, consider whether there might be helpful distinctions between them, figure out exactly what assertions lurk behind the metaphors, and propose some hypotheses about when each assertion is especially likely to be sound. Wherever possible, I will also propose some hypotheses (which I stress are only hypotheses) about how the risks of A slipping to B might be diminished.
