Description
Bloomsbury Publishing (UK) The Enterprising Barrister: Organisation Culture and Changing Professionalism by Atalanta Goulandris
What is it like working as a barrister in the 21st century? This book provides the first empirical overview of the depth scope and effects of a multi-faceted reform programme that has been imposed on the independent Bar in the last 30 years. Based on interviews with and observation of barristers and chambers’ staff this book identifies key changes that have taken place at the Bar and explores how these are reshaping and reformulating barristers’ professionalism and working culture. It further considers what these changes mean for the prospects of the Bar in England and Wales.
