Description: The Global Evolution of Clinical Legal Education More than a Method Clinical legal education has revolutionized legal education, from its deepest origins in the nineteenth century to its now-global reach. Richard J. Wilson (Author) 9781107025615, Cambridge University Press Hardback, published 14 December 2017 360 pages 23.5 x 15.8 x 2.3 cm, 0.62 kg Globally, the methodologies of legal education have not changed in any fundamental way, some methods dating back hundreds of years. Law schools have relied, for too long, on passive learning methods such as lectures or cases. Clinical legal education provides an alternative that is more than just another pedagogical method. It provides a way for students to experience their emerging professional selves, while providing services or projects with poor and underrepresented clients. This book documents both the historical origins of clinical experiments in the earliest days of US university legal education, and the now-global reach of clinical pedagogy as a proven tool for effective training of legal professionals.
