Sumario:By placing the study of law in diverse early modern empires under the rubric of legal pluralism, this book offers both legal scholars and historians a much-needed framework for analysing the complex and fluid legal politics of empires. Contributors analyse how ideas about law moved across vast empires, how imperial agents and imperial subjects used law, and how relationships between local legal practices and global ones played themselves out in the early modern world.
