This book will be crucial reading for students across a variety of
disciplines. A broadly socio-legal text, using a mixed-methods
design combining grounded theory with an in-depth case study, this
research explores a rarely-seen facet of the legal profession.
Sociologists studying the practical effect of sociological concepts
from theorists such as Bourdieu and Weber; those studying the legal
profession from the sociological, law or psychological angles;
anyone examining elite professions; management students examining
the operation of professional associations and the ways in which
these mobilise to take action on controversial topics; those
studying the role and creation of outreach: all will find something
of interest in this monograph. For those within the legal
profession itself it also provides a look into an oft-hidden world:
that of the English Bar. A notoriously secretiveprofession,
traditional, elite and suspicious of research - the case study
evaluatingan outreach programme sheds light on how this fascinating
world operates when trying to engage in progressive steps. Through
the eyes of a professional association seeking to improve
socio-economic diversity in the profession through instituting an
access programme focussed on work experience, it examines not just
how professional association action may succeed or fail, but why.
With foreword by Lord Neuberger, former President of the Supreme
Court and Chair of the Working Party on Entry to the Bar.
