This volume explores the co-existence of state, customary, and religious legal forums from the perspective of legal practitioners and local justice seekers. It shows how the various stakeholders' use of negotiation, and their strategic application of law can lead to unwanted confusion, but also to sustainable conflict resolution, innovative new procedures and hybrid norms. The book thus generates important knowledge on the conditions necessary for stimulating a cooperative co-existence of different legal systems. 410 0$aKultur und Soziale Praxis 606 $aLegal Pluralism; Ethiopia; Cultural Diversity; Customary Law; Normative Orders; Law; Culture; Ethics; Ethnology; Sociology of Law; Africa; 610 $aAfrica. 610 $aCultural Diversity. 610 $aCulture. 610 $aCustomary Law. 610 $aEthics. 610 $aEthiopia. 610 $aEthnology. 610 $aLaw. 610 $aNormative Orders. 610 $aSociology of Law. 615 4$aLegal Pluralism; Ethiopia; Cultural Diversity; Customary Law; Normative Orders; Law; Culture; Ethics; Ethnology; Sociology of Law; Africa; 676 $a349.63 700 $aEpple$b Susanne$4edt$01434144 702 $aEpple$b Susanne$pGoethe Universita?t Frankfurt/Main, Deutschland$4edt 702 $aAssefa$b Getachew$pAddis Abeba University, A?thiopien$4edt 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996359644603316 996 $aLegal Pluralism in Ethiopia$93586379 997 $aUNISA
