This paper revisits the concept ofcriticallegal pluralism, which treats the individual as a site of normativity with the capacity to create legal knowledge. To help operationalize the usage of critical legal pluralism, I propose a methodological approach that places the individual’s ability to makes choices along a continuum. On one side of continuum, legal pluralism can be viewed as facilitating fully discrete choices that ascribe to one legal order or another. On the other side, the ability to make individual choices is curtailed because of the presence of a hegemonic legal order. This simple continuum helps to shed light on the complex considerations that affect individual choices, which in turn affect how various legal orders are legitimated. The paper then considers how critical legal pluralism can enrich the discussion on the legal system of Afghanistan, focusing on interviews with two Afghan justice actors: a former judge and an active defence lawyer.

重温批判性法律多元化：阿富汗法庭的规范性争论

本文重新审视了概念危急法律多元化，将个人视为具有创造法律知识能力的规范性场所。为了帮助实施批判性法律多元化的使用，我提出了一种方法论方法，将个人的选择能力置于一个连续统一体中。在连续统一体的一方面，法律多元化可以被视为促进完全离散的选择，这些选择归因于一种或另一种法律秩序。另一方面，由于霸权法律秩序的存在，个人选择的能力受到限制。这个简单的连续统一体有助于阐明影响个人选择的复杂考虑因素，这些因素反过来影响各种法律命令的合法化方式。然后，本文考虑了批判性的法律多元化如何丰富关于阿富汗法律制度的讨论，
