Custom and The Law

---

Throughout the world today, traditional and customary ways are reclaiming their place in society. In particular, customary legal systems are being revived or rejuvenated, reflecting the belief that they are more useful, appropriate and practical in some contexts than systems imposed by colonial powers. Often, however, this has led to conflict between the real imperatives of customary and traditional practice and the more formal strictures of Western legal systems. In this English translation of Custom and the Law, a wide array of specialists discuss the critical aspects of the often tense relationship between indigenous custom and tradition and externally-imposed Western societal structures. Although concentrating on the situation in the French Overseas Territories Custom and the Law is a valuable contribution to the emerging global discussion on this complex issue.
