Reviews

“Stępień and Klakla … have published an edited volume on the topic of ‘law and culture’. They offer original re-conceptualizations of legal culture and customary law, as well as case studies, strongly supported by empirical methods, on the relationships between law and culture. … One of the strengths of the book is that it includes a variety of cases from different countries, cultures, traditions and legal systems. … This variety enriches the topics and increases the value of the book.” (Rafif Zarea, International Journal for the Semiotics of Law, Vol. 35, 2022)
