Language: RussianThe northern Caucasus had pluralistic legal systems, in which institutions of customary and Shariat law were often used by Muslim, Christian, and pagan peasants for local conflict resolution. This report presents the results of a study of customary (the so-called adat) and Shariat law in one of the republics of the northern Caucasus in the 1920s-1990s as well as the official State Law (Russian, Soviet and post-Soviet). I. Babich described the contemporary post-Soviet legal field in the region. During the 1990s the Caucasian authorities and politicians gradually restricted the Soviet rules and judicial institutions at the local level. Moreover, they tried to set up some norms of adat and Shariat law, incorporating them into the local legal codes.
