Law Addressing Diversity
Premodern Europe and India in Comparison (13th-18th Centuries)Of late, historians have been realising that South Asia and Europe have more in common than a particular strand in the historiography on “the rise of the West” would have us believe. In both world regions a plurality of languages, religions, and types of belonging by birth was in premodern times matched by a plurality of legal systems and practices. This volume describes case-by-case the points where law and social diversity intersected. ISBN: 9783110427189, 3110427184
