The essays in this volume represent a wide variety of cause lawyering settings, in terms of political orientation, nationality, and structure of practice." --Richard Abel, UCLA School of Law "Yet again, Sarat and Scheingold advance the cause of cause lawyering as surely the most successful collective project on the legal profession. This volume of illuminating case studies from across the world will inspire a new generation of morally and politically committed lawyers to recognize their prospects of bringing justice to an unjust world." --Terence C. Halliday, Northwestern University and Research Fellow for the American Bar Foundation |
