قدرت قانون در دنیای فراملی: تحقیقات انسان‌شناختی

The Power of Law in a Transnational World raises questions about how law is mobilized and who has the power and authority to construct its meaning. It also examines how law is constituted and reconfigured through social processes that frame both its continuity and transformation over time. These questions are addressed in ways that offer fresh insights into these processes. The volume highlights how power is deployed under conditions of legal pluralism, exploring its effects on ways of living and on social institutions including the state. Such an approach not only demonstrates how the state, through its various development programs and organizational structures, attempts to control territory and people, but also relates the mechanisms of state control to other legal modes of control and regulation at both local and supranational levels.

This important volume examines this question as well as how law is constituted and reconfigured through social processes that frame both its continuity and transformation over time. The volume highlights how power is deployed under conditions of legal pluralism, exploring its effects on livelihoods and on social institutions, including the state. Such an approach not only demonstrates how the state, through its various development programs and organizational structures, attempts to control territory and people, but also relates the mechanisms of state control to other legal modes of control and regulation at both local and supranational levels.
