https://cis-india.org/raw/histories-of-the-internet/blogs/the-cyborgs/announcing-the-launch-of-public-juris
<b>Aparna Balachandran, Rochelle Pinto, and Abhijit Bhattacharya announce the launch of Public Juris, an online archive of legal resources. </b>
<div class="entry-content">
<div class="snap_preview">
<p>We are pleased to announce the launch of Public Juris, an online archive of legal sources and would like to elicit the active participation of the scholarly
community in conceptualizing and building Public Juris as a site where
we are able to provide access to material needed for law and social
science research in South Asia. We would very much appreciate feedback,
support and collaboration as we develop this project.<br />
<strong><br />
Who we are</strong>: We are two historians (Rochelle Pinto
and Aparna Balachandran, Centre for the Study of Culture and Society,
Bangalore) and an archivist (Abhijit Bhattacharya, Centre for the Study
of Social Sciences, Kolkata) who are interested in issues of
technology, users and access in relation to state and private archives
in India (<a class="external-link" href="http://www.publicarchives.wordpress.com">see blog</a>).<br />
<strong><br />
The Project</strong>: We are soliciting contributions
for an online digital archive of legal sources called “Public
Juris” focusing on, but not limited to, South Asia. We hope this
archive will be a useful and easily accessible resource for historians
and other scholars interested in the study of different aspects of the
law. We see this archive as particularly useful to students and
teachers in South Asia and elsewhere who for logistical, economic or
political reasons may not be able to travel to libraries and archives
in order to access material of this kind. Eventually, we envisage that
an online archive of this kind will allow students to broaden the
thematic and regional range of their research.</p>
<p><strong>How it will work</strong>: We do not have any strict
definition of what constitute legal sources — they could range from
acts and regulations to court cases, police records and petitions. For example, one set of records that has already been contributed to the
archive centres on disputes over ceremonial privileges between the
Valangi and Idangai castes in the city of Madras in the early
nineteenth century. Documents that are not usually archived, such as
leaflets, pamphlets, people’s enquiry reports, photographs, and
advertisements, but which are critical to understanding the relationship
between law and the public, can also find a space here. The material
could be in any language.</p>
<p>As a community of scholars we are in possession of resources that
can be harnessed usefully and inexpensively. All of us, for instance,
have material collected from different locations that we have already
used for our research or which is simply superfluous. This research
could be shared. Since the archive inevitably leaves different traces
for specific readings by different researchers, our research material
could be put to other uses in other works. Hence, just as the Centre
for the Study of Law and Governance has asked for your writings for
their library, we would like to extend our request for collaborative
energies within the LASS community to contribute to constructing a
shared resource. Please do claim authorship of this archive by sharing
with us material that you think should define and belongs in Public
Juris.</p>
<p><strong>Modalities</strong>: If you would like to contribute to this online archive, we request you to either bring the material with you when you attend the inaugural
LASSNET conference in January, or if you prefer, send it by post to the
Centre for Internet and Society (Centre for Internet and Society, No. D2, 3rd Floor,
Sheriff Chambers, 14, Cunningham Road, Bangalore, Karnataka 560052, India). We will undertake to scan the material and make it
available on the Public Juris website which is in the process of being
constructed and designed. We will acknowledge the contributor on the
website, unless specifically asked not to do so. We will also make sure that once
scanned, the material will be sent back to the contributor</p>
<p>If you have any questions about this initiative, please do contact
aparna@cscs.res.in or rochelle@cscs.res.in. If you would like to
contribute to the archive, please do contact us and let us know what
kind of materials you would be willing to provide. We look forward to hearing from you. </p>
