This form of legal pluralism is not, however, without conflict. This book pursues a series of case studies that critically consider why and how state laws marginalise ethnic minority legal orders. \u003cem\u003eLegal Pluralism in Conflict\u003c\/em\u003e contains discussions of the recognition of polygamous marriages, homicide, the expertise provided in immigration cases and the legal discourse of nationality. It is in this engagement with some of the most challenging issues posed by the diverse character of modern society that its author sets out an alternative course for ethnic minority legal studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLegal Pluralism in Conflict\u003c\/em\u003e will be invaluable to students and researchers concerned with law's relationship to and treatment of ethnic and religious diversity, as well as to those with wider interests in the limits and possibilities of political pluralism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Prakash Shah\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1904385583\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781904385585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge Cavendish\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/27\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.63d","brand":"Prakash Shah","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065922662655,"sku":"9781904385585","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1d83832e-b82c-4323-bb39-d7c1d9ca3573.jpg?v=1768677786","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/legal-pluralism-in-conflict-prakash-shah-9781904385585","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
