Abstract—In the past 70 years since the founding of New
China, its legal education has developed from restoration at the
beginning to continuous prosperity right now, a modern legal
education system with relatively large-scale, reasonable
structure and high quality characteristics has been preliminarily
improved. Due to historical and institutional reasons, there are
also many practical problems on China’s higher legal education
mode, such as the lack of humanistic spirit, the disconnection
between theoretical education and legal profession, and the
anomie of university management. Its current educational
concept, curriculum and teaching content of legal education can
not meet requirements of social politics and economic
development. Therefore, it is necessary to further adjust and
improve the education mode, education level and education idea
of our higher legal education to constantly improve its education
quality.
Index Terms—Higher legal education, vocational education,
law talents training, education reform.
