[ES] La educación jurídica clínica ha cobrado gran importancia en la formación de los juristas en las facultades de Derecho de todo el mundo. En concreto, el enfoque clínico puede servir para reequilibrar los fines que debería tener la educación jurídica: formar juristas preparados y competentes, profesionales valiosos, y buenos ciudadanos. En el texto, a partir de las experiencias en universidades de todo el mundo y recientemente en nuestro país, se exploran algunas sugerencias para su incorporación en el proceso formativo de los juristas y para fomentar su futura sostenibilidad.
Marketisation of Universities and Legal Education in Poland: The Balance 25 Years After the Transformation
2016
This paper is dedicated to the issue of the marketisation of universities and legal education 25 years after the systemic transformation of 1989 where, in public discourse, communist ideology had been replaced by a neo-liberal one. The process of marketisation is perceived as a way to deal with externalities’ where activities in areas traditionally regarded to be of a non-economic nature are being transformed to operate according to market-oriented model (with competitive market, pursuit for profit, economic efficiency, and cost reduction). The mentioned process has encroached into the sphere of higher education where there is observable departure from Humboldt’s model of university and a s…
Representing the Other: A Case for Interdisciplinary Clinical Legal Education: Example of the Human Rights and Migration Law Clinic
2019
From January 2018 until late July of the same year, I had an opportunity to participate in the Human Rights and Migration Law Clinic (hereafter HRMLC or ’the Clinic’) in Torino, where I got a chance to experience working with the asylum seekers, interviewing them, writing their Legal Memo as well as preparing them for the hearing in front of the Territorial Commission (Italian First Board Commissions). An important aspect of the Clinic in question is the fact that it is conducted in cooperation with the Department of Anthropology and it involves anthropology students in the work with the asylum seekers. From the very beginning, it was apparent to me why they have opted for the involvement o…

The Italian legal clinics movement: Data and prospects
2015
<p>It is not more than 5 years since legal clinics were founded in Italian Universities: a very recent history indeed and similar to that of other Western European countries. I will try to explain this through some data collected by an inquiry that I ran in order to have a more detailed map of this phenomena and to conjecture its future evolution.</p><p>In the following paragraphs I will present the data inquiry and I will try to explain the process of establishing the Italian movement for legal education, its options and challenges.</p><p>It is worth pointing out why I use the term “movement”. What is going on in Italy, and I think elsewhere, is not simply the…

The 'Second Wave' of Spanish Clinical Legal Education: Empirical, Pedagogical and Institutional Lessons for a Pilot Course and Program at the Univers…
2019
Spanish clinicians today benefit from the ‘first wave’ of early adopters. We also benefit from decades of clinical scholarship — most recently about the Western European and global clinical legal education movements — and empirical data on what lawyers actually do and need in practice. In this article, the authors summarize key empirical, pedagogical, and institutional lessons to ground the creation of a pilot course and program at the University of Granada.
Apologia del libero mercato
2019
In a dusty square of an ancient neighborhood of Palermo there is a miserable second-hand market, called “mercato dell’Albergheria. Merchandise sold is mainly stuff collected from garbage. Those who sell and buy are some of the poorest and most marginalized among urban population, so none of the sellers has a permission or pays any tax. Nevertheless, Albergheria market had existed undisturbed for about twenty years. It therefore seems to be an actualization of the free market ideal. The State is not there: neither to give, nor to require. In the main square, where the market is, a peculiar coincidence occurs: one of the buildings, an ex-cinema, is now a lecture-hall of the Law Department of …
