Description

The following article is based on the three principles of the anthropology of law and portrays the experiences of the Chechens and the meaning of their cultural norms, especially in case of conflicts and conflict management, back home and inside a foreign country – Kazakhstan – and sometimes in a clash with the Sharia law and the federal/republican one. More specifically, this article will focus on Adat – norms of local customary law – in the traditional Chechen society. This study was developed in Karaganda (Kazakhstan) with the help of the data and information provided by the Chechen Veteran’s Council in Kazakhstan and the Vice-Dean of the Law Faculty in Karaganda and it found out that conflicts can be addressed through the extension of existing alternative dispute resolution mechanisms.
