This volume provides an overview of the
state of internationalisation of legal education (IOLE) in many civil law and
common law countries. It provides a picture of the status of the debate about
the shape and degree of internationalisation in the curriculum in the different
countries, and the debates surrounding the adoption of a more international
approach to legal education in the contemporary world.
It is a compilation of the National
Reports submitted for the August 2014 Congress of the IACL held at Vienna, and
contains an introductory general report. Together, the reports examine such
questions as: Why is the topic of internationalization of legal education on the
agenda now? Why is it a relevant subject for examination today? Does the topic generate
the same level of interest everywhere in the world? Is enthusiasm for IOLE
mainly driven by the academic sector, by government, by multinational
corporations? Is the interest closely linked with the globalization of the
practice of law? Or is globalisation of law itself something of a myth, or a
reality reserved for only a very small percentage of practising lawyers around
the world?
The general and
national reports make clear that there is indeed widespread interest in IOLE,
and numerous disparate initiatives around the world. Nonetheless, some National
Reporters state that the topic is simply not on the agenda at all. All in all,
the volume shows that the approaches
to internationalisation are many and varied, but every jurisdiction recognises
the importance of introducing aspiring lawyers to a more integrated global
environment.
