Dou Donggo Justice

Více o knize

Focusing on the unique moral ontology of the Dou Donggo people, this study delves into their legal system and dispute resolution practices within their cultural context. Peter Just examines how beliefs in evil spirits, tutelary gods, and the magical abilities of judges influence their concepts of justice and morality. The book combines ethnographic insights, the author's field experiences, and a historical overview of the Dou Donggo, culminating in detailed accounts of actual disputes to illustrate the community's moral framework.
