Criminal Legalities and Minorities in the Global South
"Radics and Ciocchini have deftly curated the contributions of new and established scholars in a work that amply illustrates why scholarship from the Global South matters in building knowledge and shaping theory." -Dee Smythe, Professor and Director of the Centre for Law and Society at the University of Cape Town, South Africa "The editors and authors not only show us how violence manifests in the Global South but also what we can learn from the diverse ways in which these populations respond to oppressive conditions and engage with the law." -Lynette J. Chua, Associate Professor of Law at the National University of Singapore and President of the Asian Law & Society Association "Criminal Leg...
Criminal Legalities in the Global South
This edited volume presents the work of academics from the Global South and explores, from local and regional settings, how the legal order and people’s perceptions of it translates into an understanding of what constitutes "criminal" behaviors or activities.

Constitutional Law and the Politics of Ethnic Accommodation
This book explores whether the legal and political institutions of Afghanistan were able to incorporate diverse ethnic groups into the political process. Ethnic accommodation has gained central stage in the literature on institutional design and democratic consolidation. However, some divided societies are more explored than others, and Afghanistan is one understudied country that is critically important for testing and improving our theories of institutional design in a democratizing, plural society. This work examines the Constitution of 2004 and those provisions of electoral laws and political party laws that together devised Afghan political institutions including those of the presidenti...
