Abstract
It makes very little difference where a future architect or future doctor attends school. The subject matter that is studied is essentially the same, regardless of the country where the person is educated. Law, on the other hand, is very different, and at least until recently, a person who studied law in one country was limited in his or her future practice location to that particular place.

Summary
It makes very little difference where a future architect or future doctor attends school. Even though Britain and the United States share the same common law tradition, lawyers who are admitted to practice in one of those countries cannot be admitted in the other without repeating some or all of their education. To some extent, this has changed in recent years. Within Europe, there is greater emphasis on European legal education, not limited to the laws of a particular country, and even in the United States and Great Britain, there is an increased recognition of the need for a broad understanding of the laws of other cultures along with that of the nation in which the student lives and plans to practice. The purpose of this essay is to look at the changes in legal education in the United States, Britain, and the Netherlands, with a view toward demonstrating the increasing internationalisation of legal education.[1]
