A Timely and Wide-Ranging Examination of the Legal Treatise
A uniquely focused volume examining the past, present, and future of the legal treatise as a source and genre.

Based on the proceedings of the Second Yale Legal Information Symposium, this collection of essays edited by Femi Cadmus and Nicholas Mignanelli examines the legal treatise through the lenses of history, authorship, identity, and technological transitions. The legal historian John Langbein lays the groundwork for this endeavor with an essay tracing the decline of legal treatise writing in the American legal academy to the rise of legal realism. The contributions that follow address subjects ranging from the development and impact of the Anglo-American legal treatise to the implications of electronic format and the continuing relevance of the legal treatise in an era of so-called “AI-driven” law.
