First published in 1999, this international collection of essays on
legal education addresses the following issues: The Law School and
the University. Research into legal education has often been
regarded as a marginal activity as compared with research into
substantive areas of law. However, recent years have seen a growing
interest in discussions about the purpose of the university law
school and the ways in which law is taught within it. Are we
educating professional lawyers or legal scholars? What do we really
mean when we say we want to offer 'a liberal education in the law'?
What effect are the current changes in higher education funding and
policy having on law schools and what takes place within them? The
international group of scholars who have contributed to this
collection come from very different jurisdictions, but they have
written about topics which, while they have local resonances, are
of concern globally. Global Issues, Local Questions addresses
matters which concern all law teachers, whatever their field of
substantive legal expertise.
