About The Book
This insightful volume by Avrom Sherr delves into the ongoing transformation of legal professionalism across the globe, shaped by powerful forces such as globalization, regulatory reform, and diversification. These changes have introduced a sense of uncertainty and fragmentation within legal institutions, organizations, and education systems, particularly in Common Law jurisdictions like the UK, United States, and Australia.
The book critically examines the challenges faced by legal education, including the surplus of law graduates, multiple pathways into the profession, and regulatory proposals such as those from the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA) in the UK. Through both historical and contemporary perspectives, Sherr reveals that many current issues are not new, and explores how policy decisions—more than professional interests—will shape the future of legal training and practice.
Originally published as a special issue of the International Journal of the Legal Profession, this work is an essential read for lawyers, educators, students, and policymakers interested in the evolving nature of legal professionalism in the 21st century.
