As one of the 'learned' professions requiring advanced learning and
high principles, law enjoys a special standing in society. In
return for its status and rank, the legal profession is expected to
exhibit the highest levels of honesty, trust and morality, the very
values which underpin the legal system itself. This, in turn,
entrusts to legal education a particular problem of addressing, not
only the substantive elements of the body of law, but a means
through which the characteristics of the 'calling' of law are
imparted and instilled. At a time when the very essence of the
legal profession is under threat, this book calls for a realignment
of the legal curriculum and pedagogies so as to emphasise the
development of culture over industry; character over eloquence; and
calling over skill. Chapters are grouped around the core content
and key themes of Curiosity, Calling, Character and
Conscientiousness, Contract, and Culture. The volume includes
contributions from leading experts, drawn internationally and from
other professional disciplines in order to present alternative
approaches aimed at tackling common issues, providing insight, and
provoking debate.
