Title Experiential Education And The Rule Of Law: Teaching Values Through Clinical Education In China, Elliott Milstein Oct 2012

Title Experiential Education And The Rule Of Law: Teaching Values Through Clinical Education In China, Elliott Milstein

Elliot Milstein

The author summarizes his discussions with Chinese law professors regarding the issues that separate American from Chinese attitudes in creating clinical legal education. The author observes that the baseline orientation of American lawyers to turn to the courts for redress is usually not the same for the Chinese, where bribery of judges is accepted. He also notes that in addition to teaching practical skills such as client interviewing and persuasive advocacy, American clinicians devote attention to value questions, such as client-centeredness, the demands and limits of zealous advocacy, and the commitment to bring about social justice. The inclusion of these …

Reproductive Rights In The Legal Academy: A New Role For Transnational Law, Martha Davis, Bethany Withers Jun 2012

Reproductive Rights In The Legal Academy: A New Role For Transnational Law, Martha Davis, Bethany Withers

Martha F. Davis

Most law school courses approach reproductive rights law from a purely domestic perspective, as an extensive survey of casebooks and course material reveals. The authors argue that a transnational perspective can enhance the teaching of sexual and reproductive health in all of the law school courses and doctrinal settings in which this topic in treated. While the topic of “Global Sexual and Reproductive Rights” can be presented in a free-standing course, transnational perspectives should also be integrated across the curriculum where sexual and reproductive rights are discussed. Expanding reproductive rights pedagogy to address transnational perspectives will aid in exposing a …
