Résumé

The article deals with the issues of practice, training and formation of legal reasoning in bachelor of laws education in Vietnam. The analysis and comparison of practice, education, formation of legal reasoning in legal education at some universities in the world and in Vietnam show that Bachelor of Laws educational activities in Vietnam are in the development stage in terms of enrollment size. There has not been any education program and instructional practices designed for legal reasoning. As a consequence, learners’ legal reasoning has not yet developed—a typical kind of thinking that is only obtained by those who study laws. In the current international integration context, it is very necessary to add legal reasoning as an indispensable philosophy to concretize it in the structure of bachelor of laws education programs. This change is considered necessary to narrow the gap in bachelor of laws education in Vietnam with other countries.
