PostgraduateRecenzii
'Routledge Readings on Law, Development and Legal Pluralism will be of extraordinary interest to legal scholars, and scholars in environment and ecology, kinship and indigeneity studies, as well as practitioners. Engaging with concepts of harm and risk the first section connects the rich literature on biodiversity, agro-ecology, disaster, forest rights establishing the rich trajectory of contemporary ecology and law. The second section traces violence and marginality in the plurality of families and their laws in India, while the final section foregrounds legal pluralism. The three inter-connected sections highlight the politics and practices of law making, law reform and law application.'
Rukmini Sen, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar University Delhi, India
'This is an important and much needed collection of rich, textured and critical articles on most significant themes in law. It contains three sections on important contemporary issues of environment, families, and legal pluralism. This volume begins with perhaps the most significant crisis of the times — environment, ecology and disasters, and the role of law and public policy. The second section on Families in Law reflect feminist analyses of the family as the site of discrimination and violence. The last section on legal pluralism is a good closing for this volume compelling readers to examine if non-formal, non-state mechanisms of conflict resolution can co-exist with the formal adversarial legal system in India. This volume is ideal as a ready reckoner on important issues in law and justice in India.'
