Abstract

This study examines the socio-anthropological consequences of legal pluralism for governance and law in multicultural countries. The study explores the coexistence of many legal systems, including formal state law, religious law, customary law, and community-based norms. It draws on anthropological research, interviews, and document analysis. The findings illustrate the difficulties and possibilities various legal systems bring by revealing intricate connections and tensions between them. The fundamental tactics used by people and communities to handle legal plurality are negotiation and adaptation. The study emphasizes how crucial it is to create inclusive governance frameworks that respect various legal systems and advance social justice. Critical areas of concern include expanding access to justice and resolving inequities among disadvantaged populations within the judicial system. The research contributes to our understanding of legal pluralism, offering insights for policymakers, legal practitioners, and stakeholders working in multicultural contexts.
