Permutations of Order makes an innovative and important
contribution to current discussions about the relationship between
religion and law, bringing together theoretically informed case
studies from different parts of the world, relating to various
types of politico-legal settings and religions. This volume also
deals with contemporary legal/religious transfigurations that
involve "permutations," meaning that elements of "legal" and
"religious" acts of ordering are at times repositioned within each
realm and from one realm to the other. These permutations of order
in part result from the fact that, in ethnographic settings like
those examined here, "legal" and "religious" realms are relational
to-and in certain cases even constitutive of-each other and they
result in categoric transpositions and new social positionalities
through which, among other things, "the legal" and "the religious"
are blended. Permutations of Order is a work that transcends
convention, identifies new and theoretically overarching themes and
will be of strong interest to researchers and policy-makers seeking
a comparative focus on the intersections and disjunctions of
religion and law.
