Widely regarded as one of the most eminent legal thinkers of his time, Upendra Baxi is a leading scholar on matters relating to human rights, legal and social theory, and comparative constitutional law and theory. A set of four volumes, Law, Justice, Society: Selected Works of Upendra Baxi documents and critically engages with his thoughts and writings over four decades. The volumes are a collection of Baxi's essays and lectures centred on the major themes of his writings: human rights, constitutionalism, law and society, and legal education. Structurally, the essays in each volume are introduced by the volume editor, an expert in the field, who provides an assessment of Baxi's works over the years. Each volume informs the reader with an interview conducted between the editor and Baxi, contextualizing the latter's research and discussing the themes covered. The respective volumes essentially conserve and reflect on pedagogic and research contributions made by Baxi to the concepts of law, justice, and society.The first volume, edited by Amita Dhanda, examines Baxi's writings on the contemporary discourses on the nature of human rights. The second volume, edited by Arun Thiruvengadam, presents a selection of Upendra Baxi's works on the broad theme of constitutionalism. The third volume, edited by Kalpana Kannabiran, presents a selection of Upendra Baxi's work, illustrative of his intellectual engagements and writing over five decades, in the field of the sociology of Indian law. The fourth volume,edited by Amita Dhanda, shows how Baxi's writings reflect his vision of studying law in context and training students as soldiers of constitutional justice.

The premise of this book is that legal theory in general, and critical legal theory in particular, do not facilitate the identification of choices being made in the different facets of law -- whether in the enacting, interpreting, administering or theorising of law.

This volume is a collection of articles by scholars across disciplines to create a discourse of family law independent of Religious Personal Law, whilst striving for fairness and justice to all. It demonstrates the artificiality of the public–private divide and seeks the systematic development of ideas for a fair and just family law in contemporary India.The book does not merely document the pathologies of power within the family but also makes proposals for remedying these inequities. It is not confined to considering what changes need to be inducted into existing family law to make it more just, but also strategises on the means and methods of effecting the change. It lifts the familial veil and scrutinises the status, rights and disabilities of some of the subordinated members of the family. The volume is an invitation to redefine family law with the twin tools of reflection and responsibility.It will interest those in law judges, legislators, law reformers as well as those in women and family studies, policy makers and policy analysts, apart from the general reader.
