Abstract

Taking the national strategy of public legal service system construction as the background, this study deconstructs the paradigm dilemma of "technical rationality"dominance in traditional rule of law practical education, and constructs a new paradigm of "cognitive apprenticeship + community embedded"service learning.Through the cross-fertilization of phenomenological pedagogy and critical jurisprudence theory, we put forward the "double-cycle quality improvement model"of legal clinic education, which reveals the dialectical law of "experience embodiment-meaning generation-value reconstruction"in the cultivation of rule of law competence.The research results provide a theoretical framework under the perspective of embodied cognition for the cultivation of rule of law talents in the new era, and promote the paradigm shift of legal education from "professional training"to "social justice practice".
