  Legal Education and Hierarchy:: A Reply to Duncan Kennedy ~ Ralph Shain ~ The Quarterly Journal of Ideology
Kennedy is quite good at describing the use of "cold" and "hot" cases by law professors: "the opposition between the technical, boring, difficult, obscure legal case, and the occasional case with outrageous facts and a piggish judicial opinion endorsing or tolerating the outrage." (p.
Kennedy thinks that the false self-conception does have deleterious effect: it depoliticizes students, that is, it delegitimizes their own (egalitarian) value judgments, so that they then take on the (hierarchical) values implicit in the institution of law school.
Kennedy's project has been to find contradictions at the heart of the human condition[47] and contradictions, gaps and ambiguities in legal texts and legal thinking (recall that this is what he thinks law students should learn from mastering legal analysis).

Kennedy's insightful skewering of legal education, supplemented by his own reflections on the work and views of other legal educators, will provide prospective law students with a flavor of what they are in for—and will remind lawyers of what they went through.
However, Kennedy proposes a radical egalitarian alternative vision of what legal education should become, and a strategy, starting from the anarchist idea of workplace organizing, for struggle in that direction.
Duncan Kennedy is Carter Professor of General Jurisprudence at Harvard University School of Law.

 Legal Education and the Reproduction of Heirarchy: A Polemic against the System.
Kennedy’s “little red book,” as it was called by some, is an important founding text in the history of critical approaches to law taken by scholars located in law schools.
But throughout this book, Kennedy exhibits a rather narrow vision of who he might collaborate, cooperate, and form coalitions with, a narrow vision of a movement composed, on an academic level at least, exclusively of law school faculty affiliated with critical legal studies or perhaps more broadly with other law school centered critical movements.
Duncan Kennedy is an important and inspiring legal scholar who helped to establish an influential intellectual movement.

If Kennedy was saying that a lawyer, as a matter of ethics, needs to consider the personal, societal, and economic consequences of representing a client, I would agree.
Similarly, if Kennedy was suggesting that a lawyer should decline representation when the lawyer's disagreement with the effect on social justice of a particular representation is so severe that it would adversely limit the ability of the lawyer to represent the client's interests, I would agree.
However, if Kennedy was suggesting that it categorically would be unethical for a lawyer to represent a "stronger party" against a "weaker party," or for a lawyer to represent any party when achieving the client's goal would have an adverse effect on social justice, I would strongly disagree.

 Hierarchy and Duncan Kennedy
Duncan Kennedy's frustration with hierarchy is based largely on the educational infrastructure it fosters and supports, recreating itself in the manner of an auto-poietic non-learning subsystem.
But if Kennedy found measures of the relationships he has built with students and their effects, I don't think the evaluations would be nearly as unenthusiastic as he assumes.
So I always worried about Duncan Kennedy's complaint about the extent to which the liberal, left students catered to those of his colleagues who were arrogant and not the least concerned for the student's story or situation.

Kennedy believes that the inclusion of such scholars within the legal academic community would increase the social value of legal scholarship by producing work of a culturally specific character not currently available.
