内容简介
法律英语证书(Legal EnglishCertificate,简称LEC)全国统一考试旨在为国家机关、涉外企事业单位、律师事务所等提供招募国际性人才的客观标准,同时督促国内法律从业人员提高专业英语水平。LEC考试的题型、考查内容与美国律师资格考试相近,同时又突出了法律英语语言运用特色,并结合中国实际增加了法律英语翻译测试。公检法机关和企事业单位涉外法务工作人员,从事涉外法务的律师、公司法律部门的从业人员,高等院校法律、英语、经贸、国际关系等专业学生,愿意从事法律英语教学的教师以及社会上一切法律英语爱好者均可报名参加LEC考试。LEC考试每年两次,分别在5月和11月的最后一个星期六举行。有关考试信息请关注LEC考试官方网站:www?lectest?com。 众所周知,美国法是英美法系的典型代表,其法律体系完整、内容丰富,既有传统的普通法,又有新兴的成文法;既有统一的联邦法,又有各州的法律。同时,美国法在世界范围内影响深远,学习研究美国法意义重大,这不仅表现为许多国家都在研究美国的法律规则,借鉴其成熟做法,还表现为许多国际公约也参照美国法的理念、原则、规则制定。因此,本书主要选取了美国法案例作为阅读理解材料,希望读者通过研读这些部门法的经典案例,学习权威、实用的美国法律知识,掌握地道、纯正的法律英语。本书具有以下特点: 首先,编者参考了大量的美国原版法学书籍,包括美国法学院教材及大量判例,力求实现教材内容的权威性和丰富性。其次,本书选取了极具代表性的英文案例。英美法系是判例法系,无论是法官还是律师都特别注重对判例的研究,因此学习美国法不能绕过案例。通过研究案例,了解法官判案推理过程和有关法律、法规的适用,更有利于学习标准的法律英语,也更容易掌握美国法的精髓。本书选取了十几个经典案例,以期最大程度地展现美国法原貌。 再次,本书在每个案例的后面都附有问答练习题,以期帮助读者检查自己学习研读案例的程度水平。 本书由法律英语证书(LEC)全国统一考试指导委员会组织专家编写,它不仅为欲参加LEC考试的考生提供了系统权威的复习指南,也是为全国高等院校学生学习法律英语所精心编写的精品系列教材之一。
