This law and society reader taps a rich and diverse literature to
compare and contrast the legal experience of many different
cultures and nations. Drawing on a variety of methodological
approaches, the selections allow students to evaluate whether there
are general patterns that explain how legal systems work (or fail
to work) and how these patterns relate to the structural and
cultural facts of society.
Every country, of course, has its own legal system, and no two
systems are the same. But in teaching law and society, texts have
focused nearly exclusively on American readings to the neglect of
comparative and international work. This reader fills an obvious
gap. It recognizes that law is increasingly global and
cross-national, and shows how law relates to society in different
times and places, the world over.
