The material for the book, collected over the course of forty years of field work by Clinton Bailey, one of the world's leading scholars on Bedouin culture, is of permanent scholarly value. Bailey shows how a nomadic desert-dwelling society provides for its own law and order in the traditional absence of any centralized authority or law enforcement agency to protect it. This comprehensive picture of Bedouin law, offers readers a unique opportunity to understand Bedouin law by highlighting the close connection between the law and the culture from which it emerged. 606 $aLaw, Bedouin 606 $aBedouins$xLegal status, laws, etc$zEgypt$zSinai 606 $aBedouins$xLegal status, laws, etc$zIsrael$zNegev 615 0$aLaw, Bedouin. 615 0$aBedouins$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aBedouins$xLegal status, laws, etc. 676 $a342.53/10873 700 $aBailey$b Clinton$01504387 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780648403321 996 $aBedouin law from Sinai & the Negev$93733342 997 $aUNINA
