Legal Culture: Legal Education & the Spirit of Contemporary American Law
February 24 — 26, 1984There is a crisis in contemporary American legal culture. The rule of law, the importance of liberty, and the possibility of impartial legal scholarship have been called into question. The American legal system has been characterized as an instrument of oppression. Legal education has become a political issue: some would use it as a means of achieving fundamental change in American society. The sysmposium will critically examine these developments and the suppositions of those who call for radical transformation.
