OverviewThe essays in this volume reflect the exciting new directions in which legal history in the settler colonies of the British Empire has developed. The contributors show how local life and culture in selected settlements influenced, and was influenced by, the ideology of the rule of law that accompanied the British colonial project. Exploring themes of legal translation, local understandings, judicial biography, and law at the boundaries, they examine the legal cultures of dominions in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand to provide a contextual and comparative account of the incomplete implementation of the British constitution in these colonies.
