Legal Education as a Significant Part of Law’s Social Ontology

Abstract

Touching upon issues such as lawyers’ critical competences, the adequacy of law schools’ professional training or the way legal students relate to civic engagement, this paper will present the research activities of the Centre for Legal Education and Social Theory, will analyze the results of empirical surveys on legal education conducted within the Centre and will advance a series of tentative proposals on how to epistemically and pedagogically reimagine legal educa-tion.
