Legal Anthropology: An Introduction offers an initial overview of
the challenging debates surrounding the cross-cultural analysis of
legal systems. Equal parts review and criticism, James M. Donovan
outlines the historical landmarks in the development of the
discipline, identifying both strengths and weaknesses of each stage
and contribution. Legal Anthropology suggests that future progress
can be made by looking at the perceived fairness of social
regulation, rather than sanction or dispute resolution as the
distinguishing feature of law.
