Teaching Law re-imagines law school teaching and scholarship by
going beyond crises now besetting the legal academy and examining
deeper and longer-lasting challenges. The book argues that the
legal academy has long neglected the need to focus teaching and
scholarship on the ideals of justice that law fitfully serves, the
political origins of law, and the development of a respectful but
critical relationship with the legal profession. It suggests
reforms to improve the quality of legal education and responds to
concerns that law schools eschew the study of justice, rendering
students amoralist; that law schools slight the political sources
of law, particularly in legislative action; and that law schools
have ignored the profession entirely. These areas of neglect have
impoverished legal teaching and scholarship as the academy is
refashioned in response to current financial exigencies, and
addressing them is long overdue.
