Description
About the Book
Dispute and Conflict Resolution in Plymouth County, Massachusetts, 1725-1825Book Synopsis
Nelson identifies three principal institutions involved in conflict resolution: the twon meeting, the church congregation, and the courts of law. He subsequently determines the type of cases over which each institution had jurisdiction and studies the procedures by which each functioned. He examines the tendency after 1800 to bring disputes to the court and sees this as a response to the introduction of new, nontraditional values not held by local institutions.Originally published 1981.
