| Zusammenfassung: | The easy success of National Social "coordination" of German lawyers in private practice in 1933 has puzzled historians. Within five months, a profession that had been considered a bulwark of civil society bowed to the demands of a party whose leader viewed lawyers with contempt and valued race over right Through a detailed empirical study of the practicing bar in Germany, Ledford traces the history of German lawyers from the heady days of reform to 1878 to their abject defeat in 1933. In the 1870s, lawyers basked in the widespread assessment of their profession as a sort of Hegelian "general estate," representing the general interest and entitled to respect, deference, and leadership. Many believed that reform of the legal profession was the key to success in the project of the liberal Burgertum. Liberal reformers and lawyers achieved almost all of their aims in the great legislative reform of 1878, carving out space for the bar to create its own institutions, to govern its internal affairs, and to assume the public role that theory ascribed to it But developments between 1878 and 1933 did not turn out as expected. Lawyers brought with them inherent limitations of conceptual vision, professional structure, and social flexibility. Their training installed in them a belief in the primacy of procedure that linked them with liberalism but constrained their imagination as they faced the massive changes of the era. They built elite professional institutions that became the terrain of intraprofessional power struggles. Reform attracted new social groups to the bar, creating tensions that rendered it unable to represent professional interest or even to maintain the claim that a unitary professional interest existed. By the 1920s, lawyers' claim to be the general estate was no longer tenable, instead they were merely one of many special interests in a society and state that to increasing numbers of Germans appeared dangerously fragmented |

Press 1996 XXXV, 351 S. graph. Darst. txt rdacontent n rdamedia nc rdacarrier The easy success of National Social "coordination" of German lawyers in private practice in 1933 has puzzled historians. Within five months, a profession that had been considered a bulwark of civil society bowed to the demands of a party whose leader viewed lawyers with contempt and valued race over right Through a detailed empirical study of the practicing bar in Germany, Ledford traces the history of German lawyers from the heady days of reform to 1878 to their abject defeat in 1933. In the 1870s, lawyers basked in the widespread assessment of their profession as a sort of Hegelian "general estate," representing the general interest and entitled to respect, deference, and leadership. Many believed that reform of the legal profession was the key to success in the project of the liberal Burgertum. Liberal reformers and lawyers achieved almost all of their aims in the great legislative reform of 1878, carving out space for the bar to create its own institutions, to govern its internal affairs, and to assume the public role that theory ascribed to it But developments between 1878 and 1933 did not turn out as expected. Lawyers brought with them inherent limitations of conceptual vision, professional structure, and social flexibility. Their training installed in them a belief in the primacy of procedure that linked them with liberalism but constrained their imagination as they faced the massive changes of the era. They built elite professional institutions that became the terrain of intraprofessional power struggles. Reform attracted new social groups to the bar, creating tensions that rendered it unable to represent professional interest or even to maintain the claim that a unitary professional interest existed. By the 1920s, lawyers' claim to be the general estate was no longer tenable, instead they were merely one of many special interests in a society and state that to increasing numbers of Germans appeared dangerously fragmented Geschichte 1878-1933 gnd rswk-swf Sozialgeschichte 1878-1933 gnd rswk-swf Advocaten gtt Droit - Pratique - Allemagne - 1870-1914 ram Droit - Pratique - Allemagne - 1900-1945 ram Droit - Pratique - Aspect politique - Allemagne - 1870-1914 ram Droit - Pratique - Aspect politique - Allemagne - 1900-1945 ram Droit - Pratique - Aspect social - Allemagne - 1870-1914 ram Droit - Pratique - Aspect social - Allemagne - 1900-1945e ram Juristes - Allemagne - Histoire ram Geschichte Gesellschaft Politik Lawyers Germany History Practice of law Political aspects Germany History Practice of law Social aspects Germany History Practice of law Germany History Beruf (DE-588)4005857-8 gnd rswk-swf Rechtsanwalt (DE-588)4048755-6 gnd rswk-swf Deutschland Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 gnd rswk-swf Rechtsanwalt (DE-588)4048755-6 s Sozialgeschichte 1878-1933 z DE-604 Deutschland (DE-588)4011882-4 g Geschichte 1878-1933 z Beruf (DE-588)4005857-8 s SWB Datenaustausch application/pdf http://bvbr.bib-bvb.de:8991/F?func=service&doc_library=BVB01&local_base=BVB01&doc_number=007347376&sequence=000001&line_number=0001&func_code=DB_RECORDS&service_type=MEDIA Inhaltsverzeichnis |
