Om den här e-boken

Traditional Laws Today explores the intricate relationship between indigenous legal systems and national laws in our modern world. It highlights how customary law remains a cornerstone of indigenous communities, influencing governance, justice, and the upholding of human rights. The book argues for acknowledging and integrating these traditional legal systems into national frameworks, essential for achieving genuine legal pluralism and social justice, particularly given historical marginalization of indigenous laws.

The book examines the recognition of indigenous legal systems within national legal frameworks and their impact on self-determination and cultural preservation. For instance, the suppression of indigenous governance under colonial regimes reveals how national laws became tools of assimilation. Through case studies from Africa, Asia, and the Americas, the book illustrates diverse interactions between indigenous and national legal systems, covering land rights, family law, and dispute resolution.

Structured in three parts, the book first defines key concepts such as legal pluralism and customary law, then presents global case studies, and finally synthesizes findings. This comparative approach offers valuable insights into legal pluralism, making it an important resource for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in indigenous rights and social justice.
