Tort, Custom, and Karma: Globalization and Legal Consciousness in Thailand - The Cultural Lives of Law
David Engel
This colorful portrait of law and society during a period of rapid social change reaches a counter-intuitive conclusion about the role of law in injury cases: globalization has led ordinary Thai people to turn away from courts and lawyers and to embrace a form of religious practice that leaves them without any remedy for harms they have suffered.
