Abstract
AbstractThis book provides fresh and much-needed insights into the interconnections between law, society and governance in Central Asia. By taking the interdisciplinary perspective of law and society, the book explores the social life of law and legal institutions in Central Asia in broader terms, encompassing not only the (state) legal system and traditional legal institutions but also various informal (non-legal) forms of normative ordering. The purpose of this book is to present a nuanced sociolegal analysis of how the state law and nonstate forms of normative ordering engage in mutually transforming interactions, thereby shaping the legal landscape of Central Asia.
