Navigating the Labyrinth of Legal Pluralism

At the core of tribal legal studies lies the concept of legal pluralism, recognizing the coexistence of multiple legal systems within a single society. Tribal legal systems, rooted in ancient traditions and customs, stand alongside national and international legal frameworks, creating a dynamic interplay of legal norms.

This interplay presents both opportunities and challenges. It empowers indigenous communities to preserve their cultural heritage while also engaging with the broader legal landscape. However, it also raises questions about jurisdiction, recognition, and the protection of indigenous rights.
