Legal systems do not operate in isolation but in complex cultural
contexts. This original and thought-provoking volume considers how
cultural assumptions are built into American legal decision-making,
drawing on a series of case studies to demonstrate the range of
ways courts express their understanding of human nature, social
relationships, and the sense of orderliness that cultural schemes
purport to offer. Unpacking issues such as native heritage, male
circumcision, and natural law, Rosen provides fresh insight into
socio-legal studies, drawing on his extensive experience as both an
anthropologist and a law professional to provide a unique
perspective on the important issue of law and cultural practice.
The Judgement of Culture will make informative reading for students
and scholars of anthropology, law, and related subjects across the
social sciences.
