Seminar-2 hours. The term "Jewish Law" refers tthose subjects that would normally be taught in an American law school as they have been approached by the Jewish legal system. This system is based primarily on the Talmud and on the commentaries and decisions that are derived from it. Jewish law is of interest to American law students not for its immediate practical value, but because it is a foreign legal system that is one of the oldest in the world, and one that has faced many of the problems now facing American law. Specifically, although Jewish law is purportedly based on immutable religious law, changing conditions over the centuries have encouraged methods of adaptation that are reminiscent of American constitutional law. Each student will be required to prepare and present a paper that would fulfill the advanced legal writing requirement. Neither a knowledge of foreign languages nor a previous exposure to Jewish law is necessary. Limited enrollment.
