This collection of essays carries forward the debates that emerged
at a seminar on 'Enculturing Law' held at Bangalore in August 2005,
organized by the Centre for the Study of Culture and Society in
collaboration with the National Law School of India University and
the Alternative Law Forum. The seminar sought to address questions
related to interdisciplinary pedagogy in the study of Indian law,
arguing in favor of a different approach to legal studies by
foregrounding the significance of law as a part of liberal
education. The twelve essays included in this volume (of which all
but one were presented at the seminar) are concerned with two broad
themes: the pedagogy of law; and sites of interdisciplinarity that
view law as a broader, social-legal phenomenon. The essays that
deal with the first theme contextualize legal education in India
over the last fifty-odd years by charting some of the important
debates in the field and explaining the emphasis on the positivist
method. Essays on the second theme view the 'performance of law'
from perspectives such as those of feminist legal study, historical
study, human rights study, and cultural analysis.
