Abstract
Upendra Baxi's 1982 book, The Crisis of the Indian Legal System, presents an introspective and critical analysis of the Indian legal system's failures to achieve its constitutional goals of a just and egalitarian society. The central argument is that the system suffers from a pervasive crisis of legitimation. Published by Vikas, New Delhi.
