Throughout US history, but particularly in the 20th century, private & governmental groups have made an effort to spread constitutional & legal information to the general public. This paper looks at several of these efforts. Some of the more sophisticated approaches include an attempt to teach citizens to recognize tyranny ("a citizen guardian understanding"), & another encouraged respect for governmental & legal institutions ("a judicial guardian understanding"). It is argued that the "citizen guardian understanding" was more effective during the early 19th century, while the "judicial guardian understanding" emerged in later decades. Perhaps the most basic approach to the promotion of legal knowledge is represented in the attempt to teach school-age children a kind of "legal catechism," based on William Wedgewood's Statutes of the State of Connecticut and Additional Laws to Eighteen Hundred and Fourty-Four, Reduced to Questions and Answers, For the Use of School and Families. Each of these efforts represents a unique model of legal education & an approach that are both conflicting & interrelated. 60 References. K. A. Larson

This article focuses on the role of universities in establishing law clinics to assist individuals to make Exceptional Case Funding (ECF) applications. The Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012 (LASPO) removed many categories of civil matters from the scope of legal aid, reducing the number of people entitled to state-funded legal advice and assistance. To replace provision for the categories removed from scope, LASPO introduced ECF to provide a 'safety net' for cases where human rights would be breached if legal assistance was not available. To obtain legal aid through the ECF scheme, legal aid providers or individuals must apply to the Legal Aid Agency, the department of government within the Ministry of Justice that deals with the administration of legal aid. The article considers how analysis of ECF clinics can contribute to knowledge about the work of universities in facilitating access to justice through clinical legal education, particularly in the context of cuts to legal aid expenditure. It argues that ECF clinics present an opportunity to involve students while engaging — rather than replacing — the responsibility of the British state to provide legal aid.

In this article, the historical formation of fraud in the provision of legal services as a criminal offense is analyzed. Currently, such crimes are a serious problem in terms of their prevention and disclosure. Considering that references to unscrupulous lawyers are found long before the appearance of the bar, an attempt has been made to consider the designated criminal manifestations in the pre-revolutionary, Soviet and modern period of Russia's development.

In the last few years there has been an increasing interest in virtue theory among legal scholars. 'Virtue jurisprudence' has emerged as a serious candidate for a theory of law and adjudication. This book explores the relevance of virtue theory to law from a variety of perspectives.

To avert the twin threats of isolation and marginalization, we argue that European legal research should embrace the methodology of the social sciences to a much greater extent than is currently the case. To fit the hybrid – academic and professional – character of the law school, research should emphasize questions of broad interest to lawyers and legal reformers. We outline two lines of research, under the header of 'Empirical Jurisprudence', that, we believe, should be of fundamental interest to members of the legal community at large: (i) law as the art of persuasion; and (ii) law as social product and instrument of social planning. We show that the questions demarcated by these two research programmes are, and have always been, of interest to lawyers, claims to the autonomy of the legal discipline notwithstanding. We also argue that the rapidly expanding and increasingly eclectic array of empirical research techniques – from text mining to network analysis and machine learning – makes the turn to Empirical Jurisprudence especially promising.

Abstract
This review essay aims to consider the law of neutrality, and whether it may be better situated within the jus ad bellum, the body of law governing the use of force, or the jus in bello, the body of law governing hostilities following the initial use of force. In doing so, the essay centres on the recent monograph by Constantine Antonopoulos on the subject of the law of neutrality, wherein the author assures us that despite the legal innovations of the last century, the law of neutrality has remained squarely within the modern jus in bello. The present writer takes a somewhat different approach, although appreciates the doctrinal allure of keeping the law of neutrality separate from jus ad bellum considerations, particularly in the context of the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine.
