'An extraordinary exploration of the ways in which societies worldwide are attempting to accommodate ethnic and religious diversity. The interdisciplinary focus on what works and is sustainable makes this volume indispensable for future efforts.' Gerald L. Neuman, J. Sinclair Armstrong Professor of International, Foreign, and Comparative Law; Director, Human Rights Program, Harvard Law School. 'This collaborative book, ‘Redesigning Justice for Plural Societies’, examines multiple legal practices from around the world and focuses on workable models of adapting different forms of diversity, including linguistic, religious and indigenous. The selected 11 diverse cases, from New Zealand to Bolivia, will be an especially important tool for undergraduate and postgraduate students of sociology, anthropology, politics and law to deepen their understanding of the very diverse world we live in. But also to study different forms of governmentality and to gain insight into the dialogue and diplomacy between minority and majority groups, from varying regions, for a sustainable and peaceful society.' Dr. Latif Tas, Associate Fellow at the Max Planck Institute for Social Anthropology and Marie-Curie Global Award Winner. 'This is an important and fascinating volume that showcases the benefits of an interdisciplinary approach to the study of law and legal institutions; a path-breaking and thought-provoking contribution.' Prof Kevin YL Tan, Faculty of Law, National University of Singapore.
