Abstract Legal profession has experienced substantial changes owing to economic needs and evolution of legal industry and market. This has multiplied the need of new breed of competent and well versed lawyers in the global legal profession. The character and calibre of the legal profession is determined by the quality and standard of law faculties and of legal education. The study intends to explore and compare the legal education and admission to practice in China, India and Pakistan. It further expounds the structure, purpose, teaching methods, pathways to admission and problems of legal education in all jurisdictions. The research contemplates on the distinctive features of legal education and its compatibility with practical aspect of legal profession in the selected countries. The study finds that China and Pakistan have a similar structure of mandatory training after graduation which India does not provide for. The study concludes that all jurisdictions must include legal practical course into their curriculum to be able to compete with the global demand.

Education In Africa

When Lord Denning made his Report on Legal Education in Africa in 1961,2 there were very few African lawyers in Kenya, Tanganyika and Uganda.3 During the 1960's the number of African lawyers in these countries rapidly increased. The public sector has been largely Africanized, but the private sector of the profession remains predominantly non-African.4 The 1970's will see an even more rapid increase in the number of African lawyers.5 This increase and the departure of numerous non-African lawyers,6 will bring about almost complete Africanization of the profession by 1980.7

Complex Knowledge

Legal knowledge is boring, and some content is not related to their life experience. To impart such complex knowledge to students, as a teacher, you must improve your professional skills, actively explore, learn, and find the best teaching methods. Only in this way can the students’ understanding of legal knowledge and thinking ability be expanded, and the boring legal knowledge can be more specific, visualized, popular, life-oriented, and easy to understand, so that students can master and understand legal knowledge and transform it into their own practical actions. This article is mainly aimed at the conditions created by the current social practice of law students by enterprises and institutions in the society, as well as the knowledge teaching situation of law practice teaching in law education during school. It emphasizes the importance of knowledge education in legal practice teaching, and calls on schools to increase investment in time teaching. All the teachers and students are required. This article scientifically and comprehensively interprets the knowledge education situation of legal practice teaching in our country’s legal education. Especially the intuitive analysis, in the process of knowledge education, the teaching methods adopted the teaching principles to follow and other issues. It makes everyone more clearly and straightforwardly aware of the positive significance of the knowledge education of legal practice teaching in legal education for the cultivation of talents. Through the discussion of the problems, this article knows the importance of constructing a reasonable teaching model of law. Among them, practical teaching knowledge education is very beneficial to students and has a profound impact on students’ future employment. The experimental results show that the traditional legal education training is not to abandon all, but to effectively integrate with the current teaching tasks and training objectives, so as to truly train students into comprehensive all-round legal professionals.

Constitutional design proceeds under the assumption that institutions have predictable consequences, but modern political science has not pursued the empirical verification of these predicted consequences with much vigor. I shall attempt to link the theoretical premises underlying one important aspect of constitutional design, the amendment process, with the empirical patterns revealed by a systematic, comparative study of constitutions. An examination of all amendments in the 50 American states since 1776 reveals patterns that are then confirmed using data from 32 national constitutions. The interaction of the two key variables affecting amendment rate can be described by an equation that generates predicted amendment rates close to those found in the cross-national empirical analysis. A constitution's length measured in number of words, the difficulty of an amendment process, and the rate of amendment turn out to have interlocking consequences that illuminate principles of constitutional design.

Abstract Background：Primary hepatic sarcomatous carcinoma (PHSC) and primary hepatic sarcoma (PHS) are rare malignancies with frequent overlap in both the clinic and radiology. No comparative study of these tumors for the restricted cases has previously been undertaken. The purpose of our study was to analyze the clinical and imaging features of PHSCs and PHSs, with an emphasis on particularities and similarities through a comparison of the two tumors.Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and imaging features of 39 patients with pathologically proven PHSCs (n=23) and PHSs (n=16) from four university centers over a 9-year period from 2010-2019. Univariate analyses were performed to determine the consistent and distinctive features. Results：The background of chronic hepatitis or cirrhosis was observed with a high frequency in both of PHSCs (73.7%) and PHSs (62.5%). Tumors with a diameter greater than 10cm were significantly more common in PHSs than PHSCs (p=0.043) and cystic masses were more detected in PHSs (P=0.041). Both PHSCs and PHSs mainly presented hypovascularity (78.3% vs 81.3%). The ring hyper enhancement on the arterial phase (AP) and wash out were more frequently seen in PHSCs and the iso-hypo enhancement on the AP followed persistent or progressive enhancement was more commonly detected in PHSs (all, p<0.05). Conclusion：PHSC and PHS generally present as mass lesions with hypovascularity. The ring hyper enhancement on the AP and wash out favor the diagnosis of PHSC. The large size greater than 10cm, cystic lesion, iso-hypo persistent or progressive enhancement pattern might suggest the possibility of PHSs.
