Offering an anthropological perspective, this volume explores the
changing relations between law and governance, examining how
changes in the structure of governance affect the relative social
significance of law within situations of legal pluralism. The
authors argue that there has been a re-regulation rather than a
de-regulation, propagated by a plurality of regulative authorities
and this re-regulation is accompanied by an increasing ideological
dominance of rights talk and juridification of conflict. Drawing on
insights into such processes, this volume explores the extent to
which law is used both as a constitutive legitimation of governance
and as the medium through which governance processes take place.
Highlighting some of the paradoxes and the unintended consequences
of these regulating processes and the ensuing dynamics, Rules of
Law and Laws of Ruling will be a valuable resource for researchers
and students working in the areas of legal anthropology and
governance.
