Abstract
For every reason to believe that collaboration has been influential...
there is a countervailing reason to believe that it has played a minor role
in the evolution of legal thought. It may be easy to bring to mind a handful of
prominent collaborations, but most law review articles seem to be written by
one author (notwithstanding their lengthy acknowledgment footnotes, suggesting
that even single-author works are shaped by the insights and input of
multiple scholars). And while it is true that legal scholars often collaborate on
their practically oriented works, scholarly articles might not be well suited to
collaboration.
