Legal training and androcentrism

Abstract

We have been witnessing, for decades, an accelerated succession of changes that put in check the traditional schemes of understanding of politics, economy and society. The article analyzed below “The teaching of Law in the economy of learning”, by Professor Josefa Ruiz Resa, it is placed within that framework. The reading of the text presented is articulated with the introduction of an absent but inescapable discussion to think about the sociopolitical scenario where the
trends of the legal professions are framed today. By assuming the constitutive androcentric of the legal field, the effects of this conditioning can not be postponed for any analysis of the legal professions. Based on a basic agreement with the hypothesis of the Professor’s work, keys are proposed to understand the recurrence of androcentric logic in the current scenario of legal education and the legal professions.
