The most significant development since the emergence of the casebook, at the turn of the century, this trend has unleashed a fierce political struggle. At stake is nothing less than the entire enterprise of law and education, and thus a powerful platform from which to shape society. The result, here vividly recounted by Arthur Austin, has been an uncompromising, take-no-prisoners fight for dominance. The challenge comes from Outsiders, a collection of feminists, critical race theorists, and critical legal studies scholars who rely on unconventional methods such as storytelling to give voice to the underrepresented. In the other, demographically larger camp resides the monolithic Empire, consisting of traditionalists who, having developed an effective form of scholarship, now circle the wagons against the outsider heathens. Neither partisan nor objective, Austin is both respectful and critical of each faction. The Empire, he believes, is imperious, closed-minded, and self-perpetuating; the Outsiders are too often paranoid, anti-pragmatic, and overly tolerant of fringe work. Is the new scholarship a vacuous, overpoliticized, soon-to-be-vanquished trend or the harbinger of an important new paradigm? Is reconciliation possible? Anyone with a vested interest in the answer to these questions, and in the future of law, cannot afford to miss Arthur Austin's invaluable volume. Arthur Austin is the Edgar A. Hahn Professor of Jurisprudence at Case Western Reserve University. 410 0$aCritical America Series 606 $aLaw$xStudy and teaching$zUnited States 606 $aCritical legal studies$zUnited States 606 $aSociological jurisprudence 615 0$aLaw$xStudy and teaching 615 0$aCritical legal studies 615 0$aSociological jurisprudence 676 $a340/.071/173 700 $aAustin$b Arthur D.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01490846 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910778737403321 996 $aThe empire strikes back$93712307 997 $aUNINA
