Crime, Justice and Society in Colonial Sri Lanka (1987) examines
Sri Lanka’s justice system under British rule, and concentrates
on two of its aspects: the effectiveness of the administration of
law and order, and the relationship between crime and social
change. It argues that the colonial judicial system did penetrate
rural areas, but did not operate in the way the British intended.
Instead, Sri Lankans adapted the state institutions so that they
functioned more effectively within indigenous culture.
