Wellbeing and Transitions in Law: Legal Education and the Legal Profession

Editat de Emma Jones, Caroline Strevens
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 aug 2023
This book examines transitions from law school to the legal profession, and their impact on wellbeing. There is a significant body of evidence that suggests law student wellbeing is particularly problematic, partially due to the distinctive nature of law as a discipline. Similarly, there is a growing body of international evidence demonstrating poor levels of wellbeing within the legal profession, with lawyers suffering higher levels of stress, anxiety and depression than the general population. To date there has been no detailed consideration of the impact of these transitions on wellbeing, or discussion of the best ways to ameliorate any negative effects. This edited collection will explore a range of transitions, from entry into law school through to progression to managerial roles within the legal profession. Rather than focusing on discrete areas or chunks of time, this book focuses on the process of transitioning holistically.

Recenzii

“Wellbeing and Transitions in Law edited by Emma Jones and Caroline Strevens is a significant contribution to the developing literature on the wellbeing of law students and legal professionals, by drawing attention to the concept of transition. … This integral volume articulates how experiencing change during one’s legal education or by working in the profession can have a destabilising impact on one’s wellbeing.” (Aysha Mazhar, The Law Teacher, November 23, 2023)
