Roderick A. Macdonald

Roderick Alexander Macdonald OC FRSC (1948–2014)[1] was a Canadian legal scholar.

Prolific in his research, Macdonald's academic work often embodied unusual formats.

His commitment to the bijural and bilingual environment at McGill University's Faculty of Law helped pave the way for the "transsystemic" legal education later adopted by the institution.

He advocated a version of legal pluralism he described as "critical", "radical", or "kaleidoscopic".

[4] The volume The Unbounded Level of the Mind gathers together essays in honour of Macdonald.
