Abstract
The issue of legal pluralism and the multiplicity of ways of "doing justice" have caught the attention of numerous anthropologists and lawyers. Beyond discussions of law, we’d like to expose a situation of legal pluralism at the local level and describe how different forms of justice can interact. It will therefore address pluralism not as a concept, but as a practice. In this contribution, we discuss the case of legal pluralism in the province of Hualgayoc in the Andean region of Cajamarca, in Peru. There, the “peasant patrols”, watchdog organizations of vigilance, justice and local politics, are recognized by the State and work with the police and legal assessors for the resolution of problems in rural areas. This article is based on field research that shows the emergence of forms of mixed local justice that may permit the development of comparative analysis.
