Description

Explore the complex history of legal primitivism in Lawyers and Savages by Glasshouse Books. This scholarly work examines how early European legal traditions and the customs of indigenous peoples merged to shape the field of legal anthropology. By investigating the connection between these studies and the colonial encounter, the book provides a deep look into the intellectual shifts that occurred during this era. Through detailed analysis of specific customs such as blood feuds, communalism, ordeals, ritual formalism, and polygamy, the text traces the evolution of legal realism. Readers will understand how this specific scholarship functioned to legitimate the colonial experience. This book is an essential resource for students and professionals interested in the intersection of ancient history, legal theory, and sociology.
