  • Description: Questions about the nature of law, its relationship with custom and the distinctive form of legal rules, categories, and claims are placed at the centre of this introduction to the study of law and anthropology. It brings empirical scholarship within the scope of legal philosophy, while suggesting new avenues of inquiry for the anthropologist.
