Summary
This book, Continuity and Change: The Maras of Mizoram must be situated in the context of the recent debate about customary law and women's rights, political or otherwise. Given the close link between assertions of tribal identity and customary law, the demands for change have been labelled 'non-tribal' even though there are multiple dimensions of customary law which are dynamic and ever changing.
