The essays in this volume reflect the exciting new directions in
which legal history in the settler colonies of the British Empire
has developed. The contributors show how local life and culture in
selected settlements influenced, and was influenced by, the
ideology of the rule of law that accompanied the British colonial
project. Exploring themes of legal translation, local
understandings, judicial biography, and "law at the boundaries,"
they examine the legal cultures of dominions in Canada, Australia,
and New Zealand to provide a contextual and comparative account of
the "incomplete implementation of the British constitution" in
these colonies.
