Susan Drummond investigates what happens when the voices of comparativelaw and legal anthropology are invited to speak to each other. Sheforges this hybrid form of comparative work through small- andlarge-scale studies of Gitano marriage law as it emerges in a WesternEuropean state, in a modern urban centre, and in particular communitiesand families. Ultimately, she brings the international, national,and cultural dimensions of law into play with one another andcontemplates how all of these influences bear on the spirit ofAndalusian Gitano marriage law. The result is an ethos of marriage lawin a thoroughly mixed legal jurisdiction.
