Combining Approaches
Crime and Custom in Corporate Society
We draw our title from Crime and Custom in Savage Society, Bronislaw Malinowski's 1926 study of law, deviance, and social control in the Trobriand Islands of the southwest Pacific.1 Malinowski, an Englishman born of Polish parents, was one of the inventors of modern ethnography, the anthropological practice of living among the people to be studied, participating in their culture, and trying to see the world though their eyes. (As with so many oth…

Lay Expectations of the Civil Justice System
In this paper we present results from a study of small claims litigants' expectations about the civil justice system. Interviews with plaintiffs at the time they file their cases reveal that many people come to court with profound misunderstandings about the authority of civil courts as well as the procedural and evidentiary burdens that the civil justice system imposes. These findings, based on the empirical investigation of litigants' beliefs a…
Litigant Satisfaction Versus Legal Adequacy in Small Claims Court Narratives
This article examines litigant narratives in small claims courts from two perspectives: the degree to which relaxed procedures and evidentiary constraints provide greater satisfaction to litigants than more formal courts, and the problems litigants encounter in providing legally adequate accounts without the assistance of attorneys. Data for this study are 55 trials in two states (North Carolina and Colorado). The findings show that narratives in…
The Study of Language in Institutional Contexts
Studies relating language and institutions have emerged independently in several disciplines, including social psychology, social anthropology, sociology, linguistics, and others, as researchers have questioned conventional boundaries of concern. Language and law is examined as an indicative case for language-institu tion studies. The field shows vitality in research relating language to education, medicine, commerce, etc., but very little agreem…
