  • Summary

  • This study uses ethnographic data from eight US law school Contracts classes to examine how legal language shapes students' thinking and identities. The research explores similarities and differences in teaching styles, focusing on how professors and students use language to construct legal narratives and arguments. A key finding is that legal pedagogy cultivates a specific way of reading and interpreting texts that prioritises legal doctrine and authority over social context and emotional engagement. The study also investigates how social factors such as race and gender influence classroom dynamics and student participation. Finally, the research considers the implications of this legal linguistic framework for justice and social equality.
