Abstract

Current legal studies curricula in Poland are still “analogue”, academic teachers themselves are still largely “analogue”, and students and articling students live in a different world: they are “digital natives”, in other words, “homo zappiens”, meaning “constantly clicking”. On the other hand, curricula and programmes are saturated almost exclusively with legal doctrines, but the market needs law graduates in economy, also with the knowledge of market, business and enterprise opinion principles, including special soft skills, completely different from those required for centuries in courts. The author presents arguments for the necessary reform of legal studies in connection with the above phenomena.
