NECESSITY OF AXIOLOGICAL EDUCATION OF LAWYERS
NECESSITY OF AXIOLOGICAL EDUCATION OF LAWYERS

Summary/Abstract: Education is a bridge that provides continuity of values. The task of legal education must be focused on the construction and protection of human values. Education should instruct us that it is necessary not only to acquire knowledge but also to live in compliance with it. Human judgment depends on education which must lead to sublimation. Education of lawyers must liberate its reality from “distorted lines”, non-values and “the princes of this world”. It must provide a safe climate for the action of both legal and other professionals. Can the entire legal education really be reduced to the following postulation: “We are studying what we need in order to appear before judges or to advise people in such a way as to keep them out of court.” The reason why it is a profession, why people will pay lawyers to argue for them or to advise them, is that in societies like ours the command of the public force is entrusted to the judges in certain case, and the power of the state will be put forth, if necessary, to carry out their judgments and decrees.
