Reinventing legal education : how clinical education is reforming the teaching and practice of law in Europe / edited by Alberto Alemanno, Lamin Khadar. - 400 pages ; 23 cm

European legal teaching is coming under increasing pressure to reimagine itself as pragmatic, policy-aware, and action-oriented. Out of this context, a bottom-up movement of university law clinics appears to be emerging in Europe. Although intellectually indebted to the US model, the European variant reflects legal education and practice in Europe, specifically the multi-layered and multi-genetic legal landscape resulting from the Europeanization and internationalization of national legal systems, the globalization of European legal markets, and the growing demand for civic engagement in view of increasingly powerful supra-national institutions. Through the prism of clinical legal education, this book is the first attempt to gather scholarly and systematic reflections on the developments taking place in European legal teaching and practice.
