The centennial of the American Law Institute is a landmark event. A
lifespan of one hundred years is significant for a law reform
project. Most such initiatives terminate when they achieve their
limited goals, they fail, or members lose interest when their
funding runs out. Instead, the American Law Institute is the
preeminent legal reform organisation in the United States and
remains an enterprise in full vigour, with an enormous number of
projects completed and an impressive array of projects in forward
motion. The American Law Institute: A Centennial History brings
together an outstanding group of expert scholars, several of them
current or former Reporters for the ALI Restatements of Law, to
provide an in-depth scholarly history of the ALI, its role in legal
reform, and the various ways it has impacted law in the United
States. The resulting collection of essays provides original and
important perspectives on both the ALI and its relevance for
American Law. This book offers a window into the course of legal
thought over the past century and is a must-read for academics,
practitioners, and all those interested in the way laws are shaped
within the United States.
