Law and Social Transformation in India
Oliver Mendelsohn
Covers a broad spectrum in its socio-legal analysis in the Indian context: from the dalits in rural India to advocates, solicitors, and judges in the cities; from public interest litigation to anti-terrorism legislation; from dispute settlements in nyaya panchayats and caste panchayats to such settlements among the diamond traders of Mumbai and the dhobis or washer folk of rural Rajasthan
Has a marked difference from other books in the area: most other books deal mostly with High Courts and the Supreme Court; this volume discusses till the base of the legal system (e.g., district courts, civil courts)
Is based on extensive field research and interviews done in India over the last three decades https://global.oup.com/academic/prod...cc=us&lang=en&
