Advance praise: 'This collection of high quality contributions is a must-read for anyone interested in the various challenges in theorising the phenomena of non-state law. It is the first book of its kind to recognize that while theoretical work on the emergence and prevalence of non-state law has grown exponentially over the last twenty years, to date there has been no sustained reflection on the methodological commitments and goals of such work. Roughan and Halpin have done remarkably well in drawing together a truly impressive range of scholars from diverse disciplines to begin such an investigation.' Michael Giudice, York University, Toronto Advance praise: 'What are the prospects of theories of law beyond, within and without state law? In particular, what novel conceptual and normative challenges do theories of legal pluralism grapple with? These and related questions are at the heart of this fascinating collection of essays, which offer a rich range of perspectives by leading theorists in this burgeoning field of inquiry.' Hans Lindahl, Tilburg Law School, the Netherlands

She is a recipient of a 2016 Rutherford Discovery Fellowship from the Royal Society of New Zealand, to undertake a major research project on Jurisprudence without Borders.
