The Multistate Bar Exam As A Theory Of Law, Daniel J. Solove
The Multistate Bar Exam As A Theory Of Law, Daniel J. Solove
Michigan Law Review
What is the most widely read work of jurisprudence by those in the legal system? Is it H.L.A. Hart's The Concept of Law? Ronald Dworkin's Law's Empire? No. It is actually the Multistate Bar Exam ("Bar Exam"). Perhaps no other work on law has been so widely read by those in the legal profession. Although the precise text of the Bar Exam is different every year, it presents a jurisprudence that transcends the specific language of its text. Each year, thousands of lawyers-to-be ponder over it, learning its profound teachings on the meaning of the law. They study …
Herbert Hart Elucidated, A. W. Brian Simpson
Herbert Hart Elucidated, A. W. Brian Simpson
Michigan Law Review
There are a number of good biographies of judges, but very few of individual legal academics; indeed, so far as American legal academics are concerned, the only one of note that comes to mind is William Twining's life of Karl Llewellyn. Llewellyn was, of course, a major figure in the evolution of American law, and his unusual life was a further advantage for his biographer. In this biography, Nicola Lace has taken as her subject an English academic who also had an unusual career, one whose contribution was principally not to the evolution of the English legal system but to …
What Nobody Knows, John C. P. Goldberg
What Nobody Knows, John C. P. Goldberg
Michigan Law Review
By meditating on displays of cunning in literature, history, and current events, Don Herzog in his new book isolates and probes difficult puzzles concerning how to understand and evaluate human conduct. The point of the exercise is not to offer a system or framework for resolving these puzzles. Quite the opposite, Cunning aims to discomfit its academic audience in two ways. First, it sets out to show that some of the central dichotomies of modem thought-those between means and ends, reason and desire, self-interest and morality, fact and value, virtue and vice, knowledge and politics, authenticity and artifice, and appearance …
Vampires Anonymous And Critical Race Practice, Robert A. Williams Jr.
Vampires Anonymous And Critical Race Practice, Robert A. Williams Jr.
Michigan Law Review
I can only explain what Vampires Anonymous has done for me by telling my story. I know, stories, particularly autobiographical stories, are currently being dissed by some law professors. Raised in an overly obsessive, objectively neutralized cultural style, they are plain and simple Storyhaters. Their middle to upper class parents had money, a home in the burbs, and nice kids who were going to go on from their fancy grade schools and college preparatory gigs to Harvard/Stanford/Yale - all those types of pricey places where law professors usually come from. These kids were raised to be objective, neutral, neutered, fair, …
The Law Review-Its First Fifty Years, E. Blythe Stason
The Law Review-Its First Fifty Years, E. Blythe Stason
Michigan Law Review
A memorial issue commemorating fifty years of the Michigan Law Review would not be complete without at least a brief glance at some of the historical record.

The Study Of Jurisprudence-A Letter To A Hostile Student, Samuel Mermin
The Study Of Jurisprudence-A Letter To A Hostile Student, Samuel Mermin
Michigan Law Review
The value to the law student of a course in jurisprudence has long been a question mark-and to the teachers as well as the students. The students have not been prompted by self-interest, as the teachers have, to come up with plausible erasures of the question mark. Most students, as you did, find the course esoteric, murky and impractical. The teachers, however, many of whom are mercifully unaware of the student reaction, have found sufficient justification for the course on various grounds which I think I can briefly summarize.
