Abstract

In assessing the critical legal studies movement, this paper takes a critical look at the

ideology, the activities, heritage and ideology of the movement. The paper in reaching a

reasonable analysis and assessment of the movement considered the pros and cons of the

movement as postulated by learned writers in the field of Legal Theory, especially Robert

Unger. In conclusion, the paper tried to apply the theory of the movement to modern time and

recommended some reformation to allow the theory be universally acceptable.
