From an interview with the great legal philosopher Leslie Green (Oxford & Queen's U/Canada):
What are some big trends in Jurisprudence these days and how do you feel about them?
There are no big substantive trends: pluralism reigns.....Other trends are worrying: too many articles are too long and too wrong; young scholars are pressured to come up with a bold ‘line’ then stick to it, no matter what. And many people care more about saying something new than about saying something true.
Amen to all that, especially the last sentence.
