It has long been known that undergraduate research can also be beneficial in legal studies, not least for underrepresented students (cf. Hathaway et al., 2002). However, legal education has a special and – in contrast to most other disciplines – a country-specific relationship to research-based learning at undergraduate as well as at postgraduate level. The modalities and space for designing research-based learning courses depend largely on the respective subjects and methods of research. In jurisprudence, however, these vary considerably depending on the characteristics of the respective jurisdiction and its legal system.
The opening chapter introduces the main thesis that the book expounds: Holmes articulated in“The Path of the Law” his theory of legal education. His approach to legal education reflected his ideas worked out in scholarship and in practice, on the nature of law and the best ways to advance legal knowledge. The chapter further explains the structure of the book, both as a work of intellectual history and legal theory.
