description The Mulukī Ain of 1854—the law code with constitutional features drafted at the initiative of Prime Minister Jaṅga Bahādura Rāṇā—is the foundational legal text for modern Nepal. It covers almost every aspect of public, criminal, private and religious law, ranging from the organisation of the state and courts to murder and other delicts, the workings of the caste system and the joint family, matters of purity and penance, customary law, widow-burning and witchcraft. As such, the Mulukī Ain is a unique source not only for the political, social and economic life of 19th-century Nepal, but also for the place of traditional Hindu jurisprudence in South Asian legal cultures.

Der Mulukī Ain von 1854, das erste Gesetzbuch Nepals, gehört zu den bedeutendsten Werken der modernen nepalesischen Rechtsgeschichte. Vom Staatsaufbau und Gerichtswesen über Tötungs- und Eigentumsdelikte bis hin zu Kasten- und Reinheitsvorschriften werden nahezu alle Aspekte des Straf- und Privatrechts, des öffentlichen, religiösen und Gewohnheitsrechts eingehend behandelt. Dadurch ist der Mulukī Ain nicht nur eine einzigartige Quelle für das politische, gesellschaftliche und wirtschaftliche Leben in Nepal zur Zeit des 19. Jahrhunderts, sondern auch für die Stellung der hinduistischen Jurisprudenz in den Rechtskulturen Südasiens. 2021-06-21T13:37:13Z 2021 book ONIX_20210621_9783968220352_20 ONIX_20210621_9783968220352_20 OCN: 1290952857 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/49657 9783968220352 9783968220345 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/70898 eng Documenta Nepalica open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49657/1/9783968220352.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49657/1/9783968220352.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49657/1/9783968220352.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/49657/1/9783968220352.pdf Heidelberg University Publishing (heiUP) 10.17885/heiup.769 10.17885/heiup.769 83eb0236-463a-4213-8a0f-dc16011f70aa 9783968220352 9783968220345 AG Universitätsverlage 882 Heidelberg open access
