Synopsis

Traditional Laws Today explores the intricate relationship between indigenous legal systems and national laws in our modern world. It highlights how customary law remains a cornerstone of indigenous communities, influencing governance, justice, and the upholding of human rights. The book argues for acknowledging and integrating these traditional legal systems into national frameworks, essential for achieving genuine legal pluralism and social justice, particularly given historical marginalization of indigenous laws.

 
The book examines the recognition of indigenous legal systems within national legal frameworks and their impact on self-determination and cultural preservation. For instance, the suppression of indigenous governance under colonial regimes reveals how national laws became tools of assimilation. Through case studies from Africa, Asia, and the Americas, the book illustrates diverse interactions between indigenous and national legal systems, covering land rights, family law, and dispute resolution.

 
Structured in three parts, the book first defines key concepts such as legal pluralism and customary law, then presents global case studies, and finally synthesizes findings. This comparative approach offers valuable insights into legal pluralism, making it an important resource for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in indigenous rights and social justice.

    "Seth Kantner illuminates an Alaska most of us will never know." —Andrea Barrett, author of Ship Fever 
 
 
 
When Seth Kantner's Ordinary Wolves was published it was a literary revelation of sorts. In a raw, stylized voice it told the story of a white boy growing up with homesteading parents in Arctic Alaska and trying to reconcile his largely subsistence and Native-style upbringing with the expectations and realities tied to his race. It hit numerous bestseller lists, was critically acclaimed, and won a number of awards. 
 
 
 
Seth's nonfiction second book, the memoir Shopping for Porcupine, was even more compelling for many—the same raw details of a homesteading upbringing, but intensely personal. Now, in Swallowed by the Great Land, he once again brings us into his lyrical wilderness existence. 
 
 
 
Swallowed by the Great Land features slice-of-life essays that further reveal the duality in the author's own life today, and also in the village and community that he inhabits—a mosaic of all life on the tundra. Unique characters, village life, wilderness and the larger landscape, a warming Arctic, and hunting and other aspects of subsistence living are all explored in varied yet intimate stories.

    Social media has become an inseparable part of modern life. What started as a way to connect with friends and share moments has evolved into a global phenomenon that influences how we think, feel, and behave. Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Twitter are no longer just tools for communication—they are powerful forces shaping our identities, relationships, and daily habits. While social media offers many benefits, including instant access to information, networking opportunities, and entertainment, its darker side often goes unnoticed. The reality is that millions of people around the world are unknowingly trapped in an endless cycle of scrolling, liking, and seeking validation.  
  
The term "social media addiction" might sound extreme, but it is a growing concern among psychologists, neuroscientists, and everyday users who find themselves unable to put their phones down. Unlike traditional addictions to substances like alcohol or drugs, social media addiction operates in a subtler yet equally powerful way. It hijacks the brain’s reward system, triggering dopamine releases that keep users engaged for hours on end. Every notification, like, or comment acts as a small hit of pleasure, reinforcing compulsive behavior. Over time, this leads to dependency, making it difficult for individuals to disconnect even when they recognize the negative impact on their mental health, relationships, and productivity.  
  
This book explores the shocking truth about social media addiction, diving deep into the science behind it, its effects on our well-being, and what we can do to regain control. From the psychological tricks used by tech companies to keep us engaged to the rising concerns about mental health, self-esteem, and attention spans, each chapter sheds light on an issue that affects people of all ages.
