The Case For A Flat-Earth Law School, Erik M. Jensen Jan 2007

The Case For A Flat-Earth Law School, Erik M. Jensen

Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law

The essay argues against the increasing emphasis on globalization in legal education, advocating for a return to a focus on American law. It critiques the trend of prioritizing international, transnational, and comparative law, asserting that this shift undermines the foundational knowledge of domestic law necessary for effective legal practice. The author contends that while international law has its place, it should not overshadow the core principles of American law, which remain central to the majority of legal careers.
