Description

This Routledge book examines how institutions across cultures manage doubt and judgment through ritual and legal frameworks. Drawing on comparative analysis spanning Indian and Taiwanese divination practices, international cricket, and formal legal systems in France, the UK, India, Denmark, and Ghana, the work offers fresh perspectives on how societies determine professional integrity, assign culpability in criminal cases, and evaluate credibility in asylum proceedings. By placing ritual and judicial settings side by side, the author reveals how diverse communities navigate the fundamental challenge of decision-making when certainty is elusive, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of judgment as both a legal and cultural practice.

Key Features

The book compares ritual and judicial decision-making across multiple cultural contexts including Indian divination, Taiwanese practices, and international cricket.

Routledge's scholarly work examines legal judgment processes in France, the UK, India, Denmark, and Ghana to identify common patterns in assessing doubt.

This anthropological study addresses how institutions determine professional integrity, assign criminal culpability, and evaluate asylum claimant credibility through structured frameworks.

The text provides novel perspectives on how societies navigate uncertainty in judgment by connecting ritual practices with formal legal procedures across diverse jurisdictions.
