Klappentext
The main ambition of this book lies in a detailed analysis of the formation andenforcement of Nepal s Muluk Ain of 1854, specifically focusing on the provisions
regarding homicide within the Muluk Ains of 1854 and 1870. This study also examines
contemporaneous legal records, revealing the complexities of the Ain s
implementation. The articles on homicide serve as a microcosm illustrating the
broader evolution of Nepal s legal code, which departed from outdated punishments
like genital mutilation and introduced fines and imprisonment instead. Still, the
innovations introduced into the Ain of 1854 were not uniformly progressive. The Ain
in its various stages of development thus showcases the complex ways in which legal
systems inevitably undergo transformation.
