This reprint from 1988, originally titled The Legal Profession in England and Wales, recounts the creation of the profession there during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries through a sociological lens. Abel (law, U. of California, Los Angeles) discusses the social organization of the profession, centering on barristers and solicitors, their demographics and control of supply and production, legal education, and the future of the field. He outlines various theories, how lawyers constructed their professional commodity, how they relate to production, and stratification, autonomy, self-governance and self-regulation.
