N2 - Although the study of law within its larger culture is emerging, recognitionof law as culture is still generally nascent within legal studies and preprofessionalprograms. In fact, the greater recognition of law’s social andpolitical role may have impeded a consideration of law’s role as culturallyspecific. Yet, as law practice becomes more globalized, such awareness is anincreasingly necessary element of any practitioner’s toolkit. This Articleexplores three examples of cross-cultural blunders to demonstrate the necessityof being sensitive to law in cultural context.
