This title was first published in 2001. This work explores the
professional standards of the French bar as it moves, rapidly but
with misgivings, into a world of competition, organization and
globalism. It focuses on the ideology of French legal ethics in its
historical and social contexts, rather than the details of the
rules governing avocats. Those rules are technical and, in many
respects, similar to the rules in effect in the USA. But lawyers in
France and the United States base their rules on strikingly
different pictures of lawyers. French avocats classify their duties
as a series of virtues - probity, honour and delicacy - to follow
one official formulation. By contrast, lawyers in the USA, to judge
from the way they justify their rules, consider their fellows
scoundrels who, without regulation, would cheat their clients,
opposing parties and other lawyers. The author's goal is to
describe, in their cultural and institutional contexts, the
professional ideals of the French bar as it remembers its past and
faces its future.
