I am interested in studying English Common Law for self enrichment. Does anyone know if there are any DL schools that offer this track and what recommendations might you have?
Try this link at Northumbria, its also listed as one of the schools on Lawrie Millers site 'BA in 4 weeks' http://law.unn.ac.uk/study.htm J.R(ic)
If you visit Jonnies Distance Learning Page, http://www.geocities.com/liu_jonathan/distance.html you'll find an entire section on DL law degrees including a small bunch of articles and recomendations. Jack
English Commom Law Try University of London External Laws Programme in the UK. You can take LLB degree/diploma courses.
I cannot add anything to what the others have suggested except to bring up some books you might be interested in... The University of Chicago Press reprinted a four volume set of William Blackstone's Commentaries on the Law of England . This is a reproduction of the actual pages which appeared in the original. The books are interesting and not terribly difficult to read (not something most of us would get through in a night though). For a good introduction to what a first year US law student learns, you might read Law 101 by Feinman. This is actually written for anyone. If you enjoy Court TV this is a very interesting book. The book gives the reader an idea of how English Common Law principles have evolved in the US. John
Thanks all, I was able to find both the Blackstone book (hard cover) and the Law 101 book at Wal-Mart on-line for $200.00 including shipping.
