Las enseñanzas histórico-jurídicas y romanísticas en las principales facultades de derecho de los estados unidos de américa

Abstract

The courses and seminars offered in Legal History and Roman Law (in 2002-2003 or 2003-2004) in some of the most important North American Schools of Law are exam­ined. Teaching in American Legal History, English Legal History, American Constitu­tional History or Roman Law is unequal in the different Faculties. Nevertheless, the tra­ditional Universities and those that occupy the outstanding numbers in "ranking" of Schools of Law count on greater and select offert of historical-legal disciplines. Follow­ing the ranking "America's Best Graduate Schools 2004", "top" 10 Law Schools are analyzed: Yale, Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, New York, Chicago, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Virginia and the Cornell University. In addition we consider others like Alabama, Indiana, Wisconsin-Madison, the Duke Law School University or George Washington University Law School.
