LEGAL STUDIES/SOCIOLOGY 415
POLITICAL SCIENCE 401
THE LEGAL PROFESSION


NOTE: This syllabus is a work in progress and is still subject to substantial change.


GOALS

This course examines the history, structure, and functioning of legal professions in the United States and other countries around the world. The core theme is that legal professions reflect the social, political, and legal structures in which they are embedded, and that professions change in response to their changing environments.

WARNING: This course is not a tour of legal careers or legal jobs; nor is it either a celebration or condemnation of lawyers and the legal profession. Students who have decided that their life's work will be as a lawyer may find some of the material disconcerting.

REQUIREMENTS

This course will be conducted mostly through lecture; I welcome questions and discussion and any time.. I expect students to come to class prepared, having done the reading for the material to be covered in the lecture and discussion.

Grading will be based on a combination of papers (30%), two take-home exams (30% each), and discussion (10%). I reserve the right to give unscheduled quizzes if I sense that large numbers of students are not coming prepared to class. Note that my grading scale for exams is fundamentally subjective; thhe basic grading scale I use is the following:

A  a thorough understanding of the course material and an ability to use and
        apply the material in a creative and interesting fashion.
B  a thorough understanding of the course material.
C  a less than thorough understanding of the course material.
D  a passing acquaintance with the course material.
F  no evidence of any knowledge of the course material.

I DO NOT GIVE INCOMPLETES FOR THE COURSE, except in rare cases of documented illness or family emergency. STUDENTS WHO DO NOT COMPLETE THE COURSE REQUIREMENTS WILL NOT RECEIVE A PASSING GRADE. One "exception" to the incomplete policy is for students who have borrowed books or articles from me; I do not turn in a grade until all materials have been returned.

The two papers will be based on a lawyer "ride-along." Each student spend at least one full day observing a practicing lawyer at work. The first paper will be a simple narrative report describing what transpired in the course of the day; this paper must be completed within one week of the ride-along (and no later than November 10). I will review the narrative papers, but I will not assign grades to them (nor should students expect much in the way of comments on them unless I see writing-related issues) because they are primarily intended to provide a basis for the second paper. The second paper (due December 8) is to be an analysis of the ride-along in which the experience is to be assessed in light of the theoretical and empirical material covered in the class; the narrative paper should be attached to the analytic paper when the latter is turned in. When preparing the analytic paper, students are urged to draw on the "additional readings" or locate other types of relevant materials (from past experience, the better papers on the ones that go beyond materials in the assigned readings and material discussed in lecture); one way to locate additional materials is to peruse the many books that have been written about the legal profession. The relevant Library of Congress call numbers are K300 through K320 and KF292 through KF300; these books are best found in the Law Library (3rd floor of the stacks.
