Details

This edited volume records the amazing transformations brought about by leaders in legal education and legal profession. It captures experiences and experiments in the governance of law schools and legal profession during the COVID-19 pandemic as case studies; ideas which helped in resilience and which could show the way forward; the psychological, philosophical, and sociological aspects of the transformation; and the spiritual and material sources of motivation of the leadership.

The contributions are along the following themes:

The shifting idea of law school: systems and processes
The "new normal" in legal profession
Psychological, philosophical, and sociological aspects of transformation

What type of guidance and support they received from the state and regulatory bodies
How they guaranteed the well-being of students, faculty, and staff during the Pandemic and the transition
