Description
In this modern rapid developing society, the importance of providing legal education to everybody needs no emphasis. The role of the Lawyers in the society is not confined in arguing cases in the courts, but it extends to moulding public opinion and advising the society on various social and economic issues. The Rule of Law has changed from the ancient dispute-solving approach to socially-relevant approach. Thus, the object of legal education cannot be restricted only to producing legal practitioners who are experts in litigation - oriented skills but also to play a vital role in which the lawyers are equipped with divergent skills, perspectives and tools with a view to making them policy-makers, administrators and social engineers. The proposed divergent objective requires a different approach in the content and methodology of providing legal education. "Legal Education has a very crucial role to play in development of the law as hermeneutical profession, since it is an educational process which equips a future lawyer, judge, administrator, counselor and legal scientist to fashion and refashion ways of peaceful and ordered attainment of ideals of human governance on the one hand and democratic right on the other." (see, Report on Curriculum Development Centre in  Law Vol. 1 UGC, New Delhi 1990 P. 16) The law colleges and schools must develop the professional approach through their faculty. Well- trained and well - equipped Law Teachers play very important role in moulding the future lawyers who are sure to be aware of their professional responsibilities. Hence, developing good teaching materials is a further challenge to legal education as the present text books and reading materials cannot provide sound foundation for a good lawyer. A related concern is that even if legal education can have some effect on student-attitudes, it will have little impact on their later practice.
