Clune on Four Innovative Courses at Wisconsin Law

William H. Clune, University of Wisconsin Law School, has published Legal Realism to Law in Action: Innovative Law Courses at UW-Madison (Quid Pro Books), which he compiled and to which he contributed a preface.  The book, a collection of papers and interviews prepared in honor of Herman Goldstein, discusses “four innovative courses, including Goldstein’s, developed by faculty of the Wisconsin Law School from 1950-1970.  These courses reflected the goals of legal realism, an emphasis on law in action, and the growing importance of social science and empirical research (law and social science).”
