What structures and systems constitute in the achieving of an ideal legal society? How can these be developed? And what reform process, from here on, is necessary to realize the elusive spirit of justice?

2 Those opting for this course are welcome to a world where every thoughtful answer is correct, while at the same time, every intellectual discourse is doubtful. Sifting through the ideas and theories postulated by some of the greatest thinkers of human history, some of the most controversial minds of their time, and reassessing ideas that have challenged the very fundamentals of human purpose and societal ambition, the course will encourage each student each eager mind of tomorrow to make his or her own assessment about the nature of justice and the society in which we exist. COURSE PREREQUISITE(S) None. COURSE OBJECTIVES On completion of the course students will be able to: Develop analytical skills that are necessary for surviving in the legal profession. Critically examine the various legal theories that have spanned the trajectory of legal history. View legal systems as they are, assess what they should become, and discuss the reforms necessary for transformation towards an ideal legal society. Learning Outcomes Grading Breakup and Policy
