Full Description
The essays presented in The Ian Willock Collection on Law and Justice in the Twenty-First Century by those who knew Ian Willock, as well as those who have been inspired by his concerns, represent the wide compass of Ian's interests. These range from a concern with the development of legal regulation to the relationship between social change and the justice system, as well as his particular interest in the accessibility of the justice system. This tribute provides a microcosm of the changes and shifts which occurred in legal education and the legal profession in the years between 1964 and the current century. The profound impact of Ian Willock's life work is evident through the wide-ranging essays in this collection.
