title = "A POLITICAL ACCOUNT FOR LEGAL CONFRONTATION BETWEEN STATE AND SOCIETY: THE CASE OF ISRAELI LEGAL PLURALISM",
abstract = "This paper provides a political analysis of legal pluralism from a {"}new institutionalist{"} perspective. In response to question of why states recognize and incorporate non-state normative orderings into their legal systems, it is hypothesized that the decision of incorporation is made to enhance the capacities of postcolonial states with {"}rational{"} calculations. In this respect, two new categories of legal pluralism are introduced: capacity-enhancing recognition and capacity-diminishing recognition. The paper lastly assesses the implications of legal pluralism upon the state-society relations and individual rights and liberties of citizens in the case of Israel.",
