Leadership in Law
Stanford Law Review Volume 69 June 2017 ARTICLE Leadership in Law Deborah L. Rhode* Abstract. This Article argues that the occupation that produces the nation’s greatest share of leaders needs to do more to prepare them for that role. Attention is long overdue. Over two-thirds of Americans think that the nation has a leadership crisis, and only a small minority have trust in lawyers, particularly those in leadership roles. To promote a deeper understanding of what is lacking, this Article summarizes key insights from contemporary leadership research. Part I explores what is known about the qualities and styles that make for effective leadership. Part II surveys what is known about how lawyers can develop those capabilities. Part III looks at diversity in leadership and describes barriers that stand in the way for women lawyers and lawyers of color. Part IV looks at the legacy of leaders and what can promote their effectiveness. * Ernest W. McFarland Professor of Law and Director of the Center on the Legal Profession, Stanford Law School. This Article draws on the Author’s 2013 book Lawyers as Leaders. The comments of Robert Gordon, Barbara Kellerman, and Amanda Packel, and the research assistance of Gemma Donofrio and Eun Sze, are gratefully acknowledged. 1603 Leadership in Law 69 STAN. L.

Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris
Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought Francois Debrix, Chair Timothy W. Luke Scott G. Nelson Patricia M. Nickel September 12, 2016 Blacksburg, VA Keywords: crisis, crisis thought, politics, media, security Crisis Thought Edwin Kent Morris ABSTRACT Crisis thought is an idea that gives a name to and accounts for some of the problematics of the sign ‘crisis’ in political, social, cultural, and economic discourse. Specifically, crisis thought is a discursive formation, a concept used loosely here to refer to an assemblage of signs such as ‘anxiety’ or ‘fear’ that evoke or invoke similar, but inaccurate connotations as ‘crisis’ in political and everyday usage. The general question this study grapples with is why political, social, cultural, and economic ‘crises’ are often recognized and, yet, are seemingly unrecognized, unaddressed, or accepted as a basic part of political and ordinary life. This study focuses on the mobilization of crisis thought by the 24/7 news media and throughout politics in the United States. Working outside of economic and Marxist traditions of crisis studies, this study focuses on the effects of crisis thought by way of a critical, interpretive, and interdisciplinary approach. There are two goals of this project. The first is to offer some of the linkages between crisis thought, security, and liberalism. The second goal is to examine through various examples and vignettes how, where, and why crisis thought manifests itself in US politics and in ordinary life. -
