Abstract:
This paper shares materials, pedagogy and experience from the author’s course for U.S. students
studying a semester in the U.K. The course focused on basics of English law and legal history, with an
additional effort to utilize the material to teach about English culture and values, and the
interrelationship of law and culture. The information is imparted as a starting point for others planning
to teach legal studies in the U.K., especially in London. It is also suggests comparative legal studies as a
suitable course for intercultural learning at other study abroad venues.
