`Modern Indian law is foreign', but far from trying to dislodge it, Galanter says that independent India has accepted this mid-twentieth century legal system intellectually and institutionally. Professional lawyers, urban elite, and rural India alike genuinely feel that `this is our system'. The thirteen articles which make up this book explore the way in which modern Indian law operates.
