« Le Canada demeure un pays colonialiste, même si bien des Canadiens l'ignorent. Dans cet ouvrage bouleversant, Pierre Rousseau raconte les années qu'il a vécues en milieu autochtone, surtout comme procureur de la Couronne, alors qu'il s'éveillait progressivement au colonialisme judiciaire et à l'effet néfaste que ce système avait sur les populations qu'il devait servir et protéger. Du suicide de victimes de viol aux enfants terrorisés et aux jeunes qu'on envoie à l'école du crime, la prison, le dérapage du système de « justice » en milieu autochtone sème le désespoir. Mais les solutions existent et en travaillant de concert, avec respect et compassion, autochtones et non-autochtones peuvent ensemble restaurer le contrôle social de ces communautés que le colonialisme a tenté d'étouffer. Le chemin difficile de la décolonisation est à notre portée si nous acceptons de passer par le pluralisme juridique en reconnaissant les traditions juridiques autochtones, leurs systèmes de gouvernance et leur autodétermination ; ce n'est qu'à ce prix que nous pourrons véritablement envisager la réconciliation. » --

The Uses of Justice in Global Perspective, 1600–1900 presents a new perspective on the uses of justice between 1600 and 1900 and confronts prevailing Eurocentric historiography in its examination of how people of this period made use of the law.Between 1600 and 1900 the towns in Western Europe, the Kingdoms in Eastern Europe, the Empires in Asia and the Colonial States in Asia and the Americas were all characterised by a plurality of legal orders resulting from interactions and negotiations between states, institutions, and people with different backgrounds. Through exploring how justice is used within these different areas of the world, this book offers a broad global perspective, but it also adopts a fresh approach through shifting attention away from states and onto how ordinary people lived with and made use of this ‘legal pluralism’.Containing a wealth of extensively contextualised case studies and contributing to debates on socio-legal history, processes of state formation from below, access to justice, and legal pluralism, The Uses of Justice in Global Perspective, 1600–1900 questions to what degree top-down imposed formal institutions were used and how, and to what degree, bottom-up crafted legal systems were crucial in allowing transactions to happen. It is ideal for students and scholars of early modern justice, crime and legal history.

Common Law, Civil Law, and Colonial Law builds upon the legal historian F.W. Maitland's famous observation that history involves comparison, and that those who ignore every system but their own 'hardly came in sight of the idea of legal history'. The extensive introduction addresses the intellectual challenges posed by comparative approaches to legal history. This is followed by twelve essays derived from papers delivered at the 24th British Legal History Conference. These essays explore patterns in legal norms, processes, and practice across an exceptionally broad chronological and geographical range. Carefully selected to provide a network of inter-connections, they contribute to our better understanding of legal history by combining depth of analysis with historical contextualization. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.
