Book Synopsis Hindu Law by : Werner Menski

Download or read book Hindu Law written by Werner Menski and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-09-10 with total page 668 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a study on a postmodernist analysis of classical Hindu law, which has become neglected due to the modernist assumptions about the increasing irrelevance of ‘religious’ legal systems. The book is split into three parts. The first part focuses on the historical and conceptual background of Hindu law, while the second part concentrates on five facets of Hindu law that go beyond tradition and modernity, namely the Hindu marriage law, child marriage, polygamy, divorce, and the maintenance law. Finally, the third part presents a concluding analysis to the preceding chapters, where it presents the postmodern condition of Hindu law.
