How is law mobilized and who has the power and authority to
construct its meaning? This important volume examines this question
as well as how law is constituted and reconfigured through social
processes that frame both its continuity and transformation over
time. The volume highlights how power is deployed under conditions
of legal pluralism, exploring its effects on livelihoods and on
social institutions, including the state. Such an approach not only
demonstrates how the state, through its various development
programs and organizational structures, attempts to control
territory and people, but also relates the mechanisms of state
control to other legal modes of control and regulation at both
local and supranational levels.
