Abstract

This study explores what is informal justice system and how it is being exercised in the modern times. the case studies of this reasearch are Pakistan, Afghanistan, China and Central Asian republics. The more significant point is; not only the US-installed governments but united States itself prefers informal justice system in Afghanistan regarding resolving local affairs. Likewise, technological advancement in China could not incline Uyghur community in Xinjiang to prefer Chinese modern courts system. On the other hand, Pakistan and Central Asian republics have also long history of informal justice system.
