Abstract
The work is a piece of Baxi's early scholarship and a precursor to his later, acclaimed work on the sociology of Indian law, human rights, and social justice. It explores the complex and often contradictory relationship between formal legal systems and the realities of violence and individual moral conscience. Published in The Journal of Sydney University Law Society, BlackAcre. pg 31-34
