This is the first comprehensive history of trial by jury in India. It will be of interest to all those interested in the history of the law, including law students, law professors, lawyers, and all those interested in the history of law and society in the Empire and beyond.
This is the first book-length study on the history of the trial by jury in India, filling a major gap in the histories of law, colonialism, and empire as well as the history of the jury trial. James Jaffe adopts a legal-historical approach to tell the story of the English jury trial in India, from its introduction in the 1860s to its abolition in the 1970s, its backers and detractors (including K.N. Katju and Gandhi, respectively), and how the debate reflected wider political and social concerns, in colonial and postcolonial Britain and India.
