Durante los últimos treinta años, el inglés para fines académicos (IFA) se ha expandido, abarcando todos los dominios del discurso especializado y ha cambiado su enfoque para satisfacer las necesidades de un gran número de estudiantes de habla no nativa a nivel universitario. En este sentido, el inglés para fines académicos jurídicos (IFAJ) puede definirse como la enseñanza y el aprendizaje del inglés jurídico como un área del inglés para fines específicos (IFE) que incluye las dimensiones académicas del IFA. Este artículo investiga cómo los libros de texto de IFA han respondido a los desafíos de la educación en la facultad de derecho. Reflexionando sobre las contribuciones pedagógicas de Carrick y Dunn (1985), Candlin, Bhatia y Jensen (2002), y Prinsloo (2015), este artículo comienza diacrónicamente con una muestra de libros de texto de tipo IFAJ a partir del momento en que Prinsloo completó su análisis. Partiendo de estas revisiones, este artículo intenta proporcionar algunas ideas sobre el desarrollo de libros de texto de tipo IFAJ y sobre su respuesta a los desafíos de la educación jurídica en inglés.
