Our Bicentennial Crisis
A Call to Action for Harvard Law School's Public Interest Mission
Harvard Law School's stated mission is "to educate leaders who contribute to the advancement of justice and the well-being of society."

In this comprehensive call to action, Pete Davis examines the source of this civic deficit and proposes what, in Harvard Law's third century, the school community can do to rectify it.
