Sylvie Delacroix

Dr Sylvie Delacroix said:

鈥業n comparison to the聽well-documented importance of habit in the processes by which we come to聽acquire the 鈥渆thical know-how鈥 that notably shapes our identity as professionals, the聽no-less聽important capacity to break free of habit gets far less attention.

Yet聽living an ethical life demands that we sometimes stand at odds with the usual. This paper calls for renewed attention to be paid to聽the full spectrum of habits (from `mere鈥 tics to reflective habits) and the role they play in shaping legal practice.鈥
