A deeply researched account of one of Asia's most important legal traditions and its complex intertwining with state law. Provides a close-up look at Buddhist monastic law 'in action,' while also offering a novel approach to thinking about conflict and compromise in multi-legal settings, focusing on 'practices of legal pluralism.'
