This paper tentatively asserts that legal studies in Palestine should be considered as a distinct field of knowledge rather as a profession, in which localized legal education helps maintaining the existing legal hierarchies. In advancing this argument, it attempts to establish a second hypothesis: such field of knowledge is related an intrinsically connected to humanities, and in specific to History/Politics, Linguistics and Philosophy/Theology.

Keywords: #Law_Study_and_teaching; #Palestine.
