Spatializing Law: An Anthropological Geography of Law in Society focuses on law and its location, exploring how spaces are constructed on the terrestrial and marine surface of the earth with legal means in a rich variety of socio-political, legal and ecological settings. The contributors explore the interrelations between social spaces and physical space, highlighting the ways in which legal rules may localise people's rights and obligations in social space that may be mapped onto physical space. This volume also demonstrates how different notions of space and place become resources that can be mobilised in social, political and economic interaction, paying specific attention to the contradictory ways in which space may be configured and involved in social interaction under conditions of plural legal orders. Spatializing Law makes a significant contribution to the anthropological geography of law and will be useful to scholars across a broad array of disciplines.
Law and Anthropology, the latest volume in the Current Legal Issues series, offers an insight into the state of law and anthropology scholarship today. Focussing on the inter-connections between the two disciplines it also includes case studies from around the world.
The papers published in this proceedings volume are written by a selection of authors, resulting from a call for papers for the 1st International Conference on Law and Governance in a Global Context (ICLAVE) originating from Indonesia and other countries. This proceedings volume shall be a very valuable contribution to understand contemporary law issues in Indonesia which are not always taught in law schools. These proceedings will not only serve as a useful reference for law students and academicians, but also help law practitioners to understand law issues that may be encountered in Indonesia. It covers selected items such as Administrative Law, Constitutional Law, Business Law, Intellectual Property Law, Criminal Law, Human Rights Law, Adat Law, Shariah Law, Judiciary Law and International Law, which are all important for undergraduate and post-graduate law students, as well as academicians and law practitioners in the law community.

Descendants of Richard Oliver (1778-1855), who was born somewhere in the parish of Llanfihangel-Y-Creuddyn in Cardiganshire, Wales. He married Elizabeth Evans (1774-1844) at Gwnnws on Dec. 16, 1803. They had at least twelve children, who were all born in Wales. Three of their children: Sarah (1807-1852), William (ca. 1814-1872), and Lewis (ca. 1817-1886) immigrated to America. Lewis, the ancestor of the author, and Sarah Oliver Jones came in 1849 to the port of Milwaukee, Wisc., and William Oliver in 1950 to the port of Buffalo, New York. All three settled in Wisconsin. Descendants live in Wisconsin, Oregon, California, Arizona, Florida, Canada, Wales, England and elsewhere.
