Teaching of Rights and Justice in the Law School

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Rights and Justice are arguably at the core of the Law School identity and curricula. Yet in recent years these concepts have been at the forefront of wider public discourse, and are increasingly contested and challenged. With this challenge arguably comes the opportunity to reflect, revaluate and renew their place within the Law School. This edited collection therefore provides a timely intervention to consider these questions and is a must-read for anyone who cares about what Law Schools teach and why.'

Professor Chris Ashford, Professor of Law and Society at Northumbria University

'Useful case studies to inspire and guide university law teachers keen to teach rights and justice in research-informed ways.'

Rosemary Auchmuty FRSA, Professor of Law Emerita, School of Law, University of Reading

'Legal rights have never been more important but also never more contested. This book, which brings together contributions by a range of international and well respected legal scholars, is an important contribution to understanding how universities can best handle these difficult issues through calm and considered teaching that is well informed by research.'

Professor Sir Peter Scott FAcSS MAE, Emeritus Professor of Higher Education Studies, University College London (IOE - UCL Faculty of Education and Society)

'This engaging book offers a rich array of insightful accounts of research-led teaching in legal education. It will be of great value to those who want to give their students access to cutting edge debates in the field.'
