This book discusses the relationship, interaction and conflict
between everyday life and various institutions in a specific
village in North China, with a focus on the formal and informal
legal systems. It vividly describes the village's "legal
construction problems" as well as the customs and laws, and such it
can be seen as a historical and innovative comment on China's
problems. The book is based on the author's field investigations
assessing vast amounts of material concerning local organizations,
formal and informal authorities, economic exchange, religious
rituals, as well as interviews with villagers and numerous court
files. It presents an in-depth exploration of "pluralism of
authority" in China's rural society, and examines how various
authorities were formed. It also summarizes how various local
disputes are resolved and discusses the villagers' understanding of
the concept of "justice." Lastly, it suggests ways in which
national law and local customs could communicate and collaborate.
