Aspiring lawyers are asked what they wish to achieve, why they want to work as lawyers, or what sort of lawyers they wish to be.

It asks lawyers who are retired, or who are near the end of their careers, to reflect on what had originally motivated them to work in the field. It combines social science research methodology with legal historical scholarship, to gain a better understanding of what motivated lawyers in Ireland in the mid- to late-twentieth century.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"42 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135413981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
