The Integral Dimensions of Law calls for a new thinking in the discipline of law. It is for the first time that an academic analysis of this kind has been undertaken, integrating the deeper issues in jurisprudence of law, legal philosophy, legal education, law teaching, and the role of law and law graduates in society. It deals with the making of a future society, national growth and emerging international developments towards global humanity, as understood in the light of Sri Aurobindo’s philosophy of ‘integral consciousness’ and ‘knowledge’. The discipline of law plays a crucial role by giving insights for practical action in the pursuit of peace, progress and prosperity of mankind. The insights on the nature and functions of law in the current globalising world will prove useful for law students, law teachers, legal educationists and policy makers.
