This collection of essays interrogates how human rights law and
practice acquire meaning in relation to legal pluralism, ie, the
co-existence of more than one regulatory order in a same social
field. As a social phenomenon, legal pluralism exists in all
societies. As a legal construction, it is characteristic of
particular regions, such as post-colonial contexts. Drawing on
experiences from Latin America, Sub-Saharan Africa and Europe, the
contributions in this volume analyse how different configurations
of legal pluralism interplay with the legal and the social life of
human rights. At the same time, they enquire into how human rights
law and practice influence interactions that are subject to
regulation by more than one normative regime. Aware of numerous
misunderstandings and of the mutual suspicion that tends to exist
between human rights scholars and anthropologists, the volume
includes contributions from experts in both disciplines and intends
to build bridges between normative and empirical theory.
