Comparative Law in Global Perspective
Essays in Celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Founding of the SOAS Law Department
Editor:
The essays in this volume offer global perspectives on crucial contemporary issues such as economic development, the persistence of customary law, "offshore" jurisdictions, family law and succession, land tenure, the forging of national constitutions, human rights violations, and the treatment of ethnic minorities. They portray the laws of Asian and African countries as equal manifestations of legal culture in a shrinking world.
Rendering Asian and African legal systems and traditions in an accessible form to a non-Asian and non-African audience, this volume will sharpen the sensitivity of academics and practitioners everywhere.
A special classroom adoption price is available.
