Law and Identity in Mandate Palestine - Studies in Legal History
Assaf Likhovski
Likhovski examines the legal history of Mandate Palestine, showing how law and identity interacted in a complex colonial society in which British rulers and Jewish and Arab subjects lived together. British officials, Jewish lawyers, and Arab scholars all turned to the law in their search for their identities and all used it to create and disseminate a hybrid culture in which Western and non-Western norms existed simultaneously. Likhovski's analysis suggests a new approach to both the legal history of Mandate Palestine and colonial societies in general.
