Law and the Law School in the Twenty-First Century

Abstract

This article was presented as a lecture on "Capital Law School Day" organised by the New Zealand Institute of Advanced Legal Studies to mark the occasion of the centenary of the Faculty of Law, Victoria University of Wellington in 1999. The general theme of the Day's seminar was how the law and the Victoria University of Wellington's Law School should develop into the millennium. The author considers the future of Victoria Law School by referring to its unique strengths and attributes, and how these have led to successes in the past. The author then looks at the changes that have taken place and are taking place in our legal world.
