Peter Just

This study of justice and morality among the Dou Donggo, a highland people of Indonesia, centers on the workings of law and dispute settlement in small communities. Just (anthropology, Williams College) argues that the operation of any legal system is best understood in the context of its moral ontology. Chapters cover the context of the debate, the author's field experiences, the history of the Dou Donggo, the constitution of the village as a moral community, the community's moral ontology, and three cases. c.
