agree  Anzhelika Kuznetsova: spot-on (i'd probably omit the articles, but it doesn't seem that critical here anyway)

neutral  Oleg Lozinskiy: Sam, with all my utmost respect towards you (and your option is the BEST English possible in my view). BUT the addressees of the translation may wish to find the TEXT of this RF Law (or comments thereto) on the Internet. What then?//Fully agree with you.

  -> Thanks, Oleg. I'm sure Harvard is filled with lots of smart people, but I don't think they dictate the authoritative translation for Russian legislation. I think that deciding on the best translation here would depend on the purpose of the translation.

neutral  Oleg Lozinskiy: Спасибо за "затравку". Но "Legal Practice" и "Адвокатура" в России - это все-таки две небольшие "разницы". Хотя, как вариант, imho, неплохо!

  -> А "спутник"-"sputnik", а "гласность"-"glasnost", а "водка"-"vodka"? Вопрос не в этом, а в том, КОМУ АДРЕСОВАН ПЕРЕВОД И В ЧЕМ ЕГО ЦЕЛЬ: (i) объяснить, в чем смысл? или (ii) дать "зацепки"? или (iii) и то, и другое сразу, вместе и "в одном флаконе"?

the Bar (Bar association) and Advocacy


Explanation:
the Bar:
a collective term for lawyers or the legal profession; specifically applied to barristers in some countries but including all lawyers in others.
http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/bar#English

Bar association:
a professional body of lawyers. Some bar associations are responsible for the regulation of the legal profession in their jurisdiction; others are professional organizations dedicated to serving their members; in many cases, they are both. In many Commonwealth jurisdictions, the bar association comprises lawyers who are qualified as barristers or advocates in particular, versus solicitors. Membership in bar associations may be mandatory or optional for practicing attorneys, depending on jurisdiction.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bar_(association)

Advocacy:
a process by an individual or group which aims to influence public-policy and resource allocation decisions within political, economic, and social systems and institutions. Advocacy may be motivated from moral, ethical or faith principles or simply a desire to protect an asset of interest. Advocacy can include many activities that a person or organization undertakes including media campaigns, public speaking, commissioning and publishing research or polls or the filing of an amicus brief. Lobbying (often by lobby groups) is a form of advocacy where a direct approach is made to legislators on an issue which plays a significant role in modern politics.[1] Research is beginning to explore how advocacy groups use social media to facilitate civic engagement and collective action.
