Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book of historical sources provides a comprehensive insight into the legal and socio-economic systems of India between the 8th and 35th centuries. The author outlines the evolution of these systems under different political and cultural influences ranging from ancient India through centuries of foreign rule. It examines the legislative frameworks and their impact on authority, including issues of social and religious practice, land ownership, rule of law, and the ethics of governance. The central theme is the author's examination of the revenue and judicial systems under the British East India Company reforms of 1793, and the challenges they faced. The examination of the judicial system encompasses its procedural elements, the background and competence of judges, and the efficacy of the legal process itself. The author offers a unique perspective on the challenges of governance in India, and his insights remain highly relevant in discussions of comparative jurisprudence, the evolution of rights during the colonial period, and the legacy of these systems in modern India.
