Social Context Adjudication: Relevance for Trial Courts

Social Context Adjudication: Relevance for Trial Courts
The object of this article is to examine and emphasize the relevance of social context adjudication for trial courts and magistrates. "Social context"must not be ignored in adjudication, especially in an adversarial system where the judge is not an active participant of the judicial proceedings. India being unique in terms of diversity is also unique in terms of the inequalities prevalent in all systems: caste, religion, gender to name a few. It is in this context that "social context" judging or adjudication becomes all the more important.
