REFORMĂ ȘI ANTIREFORMĂ ÎN ÎNVĂȚĂMÂNTUL JURIDIC ROMÂNESC

Within this study the author presents us some essential points of reference regarding the present situation of the legal education and its prospects for recovery. The author’s approach starts from the finding that education at all levels is in a period of crisis, despite the legal framework developed over the last years and materialized, mainly, in a new national education law. The explanations of the crisis in our legal education are multiple, the author making special reference to the unjustified proliferation of the private legal education and to the existence of a disproportionate relation between the public and private faculties of law. A particular importance is also given within this study to the teaching staff of the university education. The author pleads, in essence, for the financing of the education institutions in relation to the performances achieved, for setting some high standards of promotion of the teaching staff within the legal education and for a more exigent regulation of the incompatibilities and of the conflicts of interest.
