Reflections On Professor Chroust's The Rise Of The Legal Profession In America, Donald P. Kommers

Journal Articles

A review of Anton-Herman Chroust’s 1965 study on lawyers and the status of the legal profession in the United States from early colonial days to 1830.

Though the review praises the wealth of facts and detail in the work it argues that Chroust is more interested in glorifying the early American legal profession rather than analyzing the conditions for its growth. It also contends that Chroust does not organize his material according to a coherent theory or conceptual scheme. The review, in addition, asserts that Chroust focuses too much on the pious and self-righteous rhetoric lawyers at the time, assuming …

Group Legal Services: The Bench, The Bar, And The Brotherhood, Law Review Staff

Vanderbilt Law Review

The bar has long sought to make legal services readily available to all persons whatever their situation.

Comparative Legal Research, Some Remarks On "Looking Out Of The Cave", Hessel E. Yntema

Michigan Law Review

Despite this risk and without limiting discussion of comparative legal research to a Platonic theory of knowledge-to which I for one would not accede-the text prompts first the inquiry, unavoidable in a constructive discussion of the matter, whether contemporary legal study in the United States is concerned with shadows in an intellectual cave-or in other words, whether it is true, as I was told years ago, partly perhaps in jest, by a late distinguished member of the Supreme Court, then Attorney General, when, encountering me on a visit to the Department of Justice, he kindly asked what I was looking …
