The Paradox of Professionalism: Lawyers and the Possibility of Justice
Scott L Cummings
Drawing on interdisciplinary and comparative research on lawyers, this volume explores whether and how lawyers, in the face of intense market pressures, may transcend their own self-interest to meaningfully contribute to systems of political accountability, ethical advocacy and distributional fairness. It argues that justice is possible, but never complete.
