'Grounded in rich empirical research, this volume extends the epistemological and methodological imagination of law and society. Intellectual conversations between empirical essays and insightful commentary reveal intellectual journeys of scholars and the field itself, achieving both a bird's-eye view of the field and insights into the lives of ordinary people as they negotiate socio-legal realities on the ground.' Yukiko Koga, Associate Professor of Anthropology, Yale University
