I. Nelson Rose (born May 23, 1950) is an internationally known author and public speaker, and is recognized as one of the world's leading experts on gambling and gaming law.〔"I. Nelson Rose, the country's leading authority on gambling law..." Natasha Dow Schüll, Addiction by Design: Machine Gambling in Las Vegas at p.94 (Princeton University Press: 2012).〕〔(Pokernewsdaily.com: Gambling Law Expert Nelson Rose Comments on Online Poker Seizure )〕〔(Live Casino Direct: Come on Down, Nelson Rose )〕〔(New York Times: Who Pays Up If Online Gambling Is Illegal? (Aug. 21, 1998) )〕 He is currently a Full Professor with Tenure at Whittier Law School and a Visiting Professor at the University of Macau. Rose is best known for his internationally syndicated column and 1986 book, ''Gambling and the Law''.〔ISBN 0-89746-066-9〕 ==Impact on legal gambling== In 1979, while still a student at Harvard Law School, Rose developed the theory of the Third Wave of Legal Gambling.〔"The Legalization and Control of Casino Gambling," Fordham Urban Law Journal, vol.8, p.245 (Winter, 1980)〕 Examining the dates when laws had been enacted in the past, he concluded that legal gambling had twice before swept the nation. He correctly predicted that state lotteries, casinos and other forms of gambling would once again be made legal in the United States. According to the theory, legal gambling will continue to spread, until it is once again outlawed. The Third Wave of Legal Gambling theory inspired both entrepreneurs and governments to expand legal gaming, in part because it showed how much money could be made by the initial operators. “Suppose Prohibition of alcohol had just been repealed. The hypothetical owner of the first and only liquor store in a state would make a fantastic return on investment.” 〔(Gamblingandthelaw.com: The Third Wave of Legal Gambling )〕 The Third Wave of Legal Gambling theory explains why the states differ so much in their approaches to gaming. Rose showed the legal problems created by prohibitions in state constitutions dating from the 19th century on lotteries. For example, in 1990, the Mississippi Supreme Court discussed Rose’s Third Wave of Legal Gambling theory in oral argument, concluding that that state’s ancient constitutional ban on “lotteries” did not prevent the Mississippi Legislature from legalizing charity bingo.〔Knight v. State of Mississippi, 574 So.2d 662 (1990).〕 The next year the Legislature authorized casinos, making Mississippi the third leading casino state, after Nevada and New Jersey. Rose has also been involved in other major developments involving legal gambling in the U.S. and abroad. He has worked with governments and industry in legalizing and regulating casinos, poker, bingo and lotteries. He also was instrumental in the introduction of contests of skill and subscription and other games with free alternative means of entry. Rose’s testimony led to the introduction of Texas hold 'em and Pai Gow Poker into California cardrooms in the 1980s;〔Huntington Park Club Corp. v. County of Los Angeles, 206 Cal.App.3d 241, 253 Cal.Rptr. 408 (1988)〕〔Walker v. Meehan, 194 Cal.App.3d 1290, 240 Cal.Rptr. 171 (Cal.Ct.App. 1987)〕〔Sullivan v. Fox, 189 Cal.App.3d 673, 235 Cal.Rptr. 5 (Cal.Ct.App. 1987).〕 His work with tribes and suppliers on the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act and in testifying on what is legal on Indian land〔United States v.162 MegaMania Gambling Devices, 231 F.3d 713 (10th Cir. 2000)〕〔United States v.103 Electronic Gambling Devices, 223 F.3d 1091 (9th Cir. 2000)〕〔Diamond Game Enterprises, Inc. v. Janet Reno, 230 F.3d 365 (U.S. Court of Appeals, District of Columbia Circuit 2000).〕 helped lead to the creation of the modern tribal bingo hall and casino. In 1999, the California Supreme Court cited ''Gambling and the Law'' in striking down Proposition 5, which had won the most expensive initiative campaign battle in the nation's history, and which would have legalized tribal casinos as "lotteries."〔Hotel Employees and Restaurant Employees Int'l. Union v. Davis, 21 Cal.4th 585, 981 P.2d 990, 88 Cal.Rptr.2d 56 (1999).〕 In 2006, the first NAFTA tribunal involving gaming adopted Rose’s testimony, on behalf of the federal government of Mexico, on what constituted a slot machine as opposed to a game of skill.〔(International Thunderbird Gaming Corporation v. The United Mexican States )〕 The North Dakota Supreme Court also adopted his position on what is a slot machine.〔Midwestern Enterprises, Inc. v. Wayne K. Stenehjem, North Dakota Attorney General, 2001 ND 67, 625 N.W.2d 234 (2001).〕 The California Supreme Court adopted his testimony on what constituted a banking game, closing down the State lottery’s Keno.〔Western Telcon, Inc. v. California State Lottery, 13 Cal.4th 375, 53 Cal.Rptr.2d 812, 917 P.2d. 651 (June 24, 1996).〕 In “Compulsive Gambling and the Law”, Rose described how the views of society, and thus of the law, toward problem gambling are changing. In his writings and public presentations, he explained how courts and lawmakers were struggling with the concept that a person might bet too much because they were ill, rather than because they were morally weak.〔"Compulsive Gambling and the Law: From Sin to Vice to Disease," presented before the American Society of Criminology, November 8–9, 1989, Reno, Nevada.〕 He incorporated the California Counsel on Problem Gambling, wrote the bill providing funding for the Texas Counsel on Problem Gambling. In 1990, he argued the case of Erickson v. Desert Palace, Inc., before the Ninth Circuit, on behalf of a 19-year-old boy who was denied a million-dollar slot machine jackpot by Caesars Palace, and asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the appeal.〔942 F.2d 694 (9th Cir. 1991), cert. denied, 112 S.Ct. 1476 (1992). ISBN 0-913113-36-0.〕 Rose was instrumental in getting governments and operators to put in place protections for compulsive and underage gamblers. Rose is the co-author of "Internet Gaming Law" (1st〔ISBN 0-913113-36-0.〕 and 2nd〔ISBN 978-1-934854-00-6.〕 editions), ''Blackjack and the Law'',〔ISBN 0-910575-08-8.〕 and the first casebook on the subject, "Gaming Law: Cases and Materials".〔ISBN 0-8205-4906-1.〕 His most recent book, co-authored in 2012, is ''Gaming Law in a Nutshell''.〔ISBN 978-0-314-27836-4.〕 Rose is co-editor-in-chief of the Gaming Law Review & Economics.〔(Gaming Law Review )〕 He is a consultant to governments and industry and has testified as an expert witness on gaming in administrative, civil and criminal cases. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「I.
