Legal studies
The jurisprudence is a school subject at general and vocational schools, the basic knowledge of the law provides. In some cases it is also dealt with within other subjects, such as social studies. Mostly, knowledge from the areas of civil law and commercial law is imparted.
Legal studies in schools should also contribute to the education of values and less practice in legal working methods, but rather teach law under the standard of justice . In addition, fundamental constitutional values should be discussed and reflected upon. The aim of legal studies is therefore also that the rationality of intellectual disputes strengthened by legal studies makes the students more capable of acting in social and political life, and that legal awareness is increased.
The science of jurisprudence is jurisprudence .
The state of North Rhine-Westphalia is providing 600,000 euros for the 2010/11 school year. Around 800 lecturers (lawyers, judges and public prosecutors) are on duty.
