摘要
传统上,中、日两国法学教育属于综合法律素质养成型教育类型,并不与法律职业直接相联系。但自上个世纪九十年代以来,两国出现了借鉴美国法学院制度,探索建立法律实务教育模式的新动向。论文对法律硕士专业学位(J.M.)教育、日本的法科大学院(J.D.)、以及美国的法学院制度(J.D.)进行了比较观察。对中日两国新型法学教育制度形成与效果的关系作了分析,对法学院制度形成的路径、方式和评价机制问题作了探讨。作者认为,制度形成的关键不在于形而上的可行性讨论,根本性问题是对制度要素的观察、分析以及摄入,构成要素的摄取决定了制度的效果和命运。
Traditionally, the goals for both in Chinese and Japanese legal educations are to educate laws for law students and not necessarily linked with legal professions, which means the graduate law students are not expected to become lawyers although some of them may practice law qualified with the unified bar examination. But after 1990s, a new trend of transition from the education of legal mind to professional modeled American professional legal education, appeared in two countries. The paper focuses on the new programs of J. M. (Juris Master)which was established in 1995 in China and J. D. (Juris Doctor)which was started in 2005 in Japan, highlighting on the approaches of the formation and the results of new programs. The author concludes that the key issue for the formation of new legal professional education doesn' t depend on the discussion of possibility but also on the adoption of elements prevailed in the professional legal education.
