Reviews
"The specific cases that the author summarizes and the bibliographic references make The Cultural Defense an extraordinarily valuable resource for further research into the role of courts in evaluating and using cultural evidence."--Perspectives on Politics, "The Cultural Defense integrates an abstract theoretical discussion of cultural pluralism with a close and sensitive analysis of a wide range of concrete cases. The result is an illuminating account of the nature, logic and limits of culture as a legitimate basis of differential treatment."--Bhikhu Parekh, author of Rethinking Multiculturalism, "Alison Dundes Renteln's The Cultural Defense is an extraordinarily effective combination of careful anthropology and incisive legal analysis. I am familiar with no other work that presents such a formidable case for revision of the evasions denying a place to minority culture in our legaluniverse."--Judge John T. Noonan, Jr., author of Narrowing the Nation's Power, "Sharp and comprehensive Renteln's work stands as an insightful and extraordinary productive inquiry into the relationship between US law and culturality."--Anthropological Quarterly"This book will be the definitive treatment of law's complex relation to culture for a long time to come." --Choice"The specific cases that the author summarizes and the bibliographic references make The Cultural Defense an extraordinarily valuable resource for further research into the role of courts in evaluating and using cultural evidence."--Perspectives on Politics"This book will be the definitive treatment of law's complex relation to culture for a long time to come"--Choice"The specific cases that the author summarizes and the bibliographic references make The Cultural Defense an extraordinarily valuable resource for further research into the role of courts in evaluating and using cultural evidence."--Perspectives on Politics"Sharp and comprehensive, Renteln's work stands as an insightful and extraordinary productive inquiry into the relationship between US law and culturality."--Anthropological Quarterly"Alison Dundes Renteln's The Cultural Defense is an extraordinarily effective combination of careful anthropology and incisive legal analysis.

No reader will come away without being thoroughly stimulated."--Bert Lockwood, Distinguished Service Professor, University of Cincinnati College of Law"Renteln weaves fascinating stories of the intersection of law and diverse cultures into a rich narrative that forces one to confront anew the complexities of administering justice in a multicultural context. Renteln's analysis is rigorous, nuanced, and ultimately persuasive."--G. Alan Tarr, author of Understanding State Constitutions"Professor Renteln has ably questioned the adage, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do," as a rule for applying the law equally. Her well-informed argument for a partial cultural defense (and offense in civil litigation) echoes the jus gentium of the Roman Empire itself. The case law is fascinating."--James A.R.

Synopsis
In what ways and to what extent should cultural background be taken into consideration in response to legal problems? The first book-length study of the topic, The Cultural Defense provides a comprehensive overview of the debate surrounding the admissibility of cultural evidence in the courtroom. Documenting an extraordinary range of cases in which individuals have attempted to invoke a cultural defense, this book provides an in-depth look at the complexities of invoking cultural arguments in the diverse bodies of law under which the cases fall. Cases considered include homicide and rape prosecutions, child abuse cases, drug use cases, the treatment of animals, and custody battles. Disputing current practices, Renteln contends that the cultural defense should, in both criminal and civil matters, be given formal recognition.
