<img> Clinical Professor of Legal Writing and Research - Open Rank Description NYU Abu Dhabi invites applications for a (continuing contract / open rank) faculty appointment as Clinical Professor in Legal Writing and Research in Legal Studies, Arts and Humanities Division with appointment starting in August 2023 for the 2023-24 academic year. Applicants should have a graduate degree in law and particular interests and expertise in US and UK legal systems and a successful record of teaching legal writing and research. Teaching load for the year is 4 courses (typically 2 in Fall, 2 in Spring) plus capstone thesis advising and other standard faculty responsibilities. The primary responsibility is to teach Legal Writing and Research. The undergraduate major in Legal Studies at NYU Abu Dhabi poses the broad philosophical, cultural, social, economic, political, religious, and ethical questions that prove indispensable both to a deep understanding of law and to liberal arts education. What is justice? What is Law? How is it organized? Who and what constitutes the arbiter of justice? What are the effects of historical, cultural, religious, and national settings on law and justice? Is the developing global society on the path to a just and moral order, and what role can the law play? What are the legal issues raised by global concerns such as those about the environment, technology, and cyber security? The Legal Studies curriculum design responds, in part, to the increasing globalization of law through a consideration of issues such as the environment, the rule of law, international business, law and media, human rights, technology and security, and law and ethics. At the same time, recognizing that law maintains a local focus, the curriculum treats the broad questions raised by globalization through the study of particular examples drawn from common law, continental law and other legal systems. The major in Legal Studies is intended as an approach to the study of law rooted in the liberal arts tradition. The integration of Legal Studies with liberal arts education enhances the opportunity for cross-disciplinary study. The Program in Legal Studies is situated within both the Social Sciences and the Arts and Humanities, and it thus aims to serve as a bridge between these divisions. The curriculum aspires to foster in students the readiness and ability to act in a truly human manner which entails qualities such as serving as an advocate for individual rights and as an artisan of the common good.
