'Public Secrets of Law' describes the everyday socio-legal processes that underlie the making of rape trials in Indian courts. Based on an ethnographic project in the rural District and Sessions Court in Ahmedabad (Gujarat), as well as critical readings of the juridical archive, it demonstrates how rape trials furnish scripts of the social via the judicialised bodies of violated women.
