The Language of Land: Look Before You Leap

Kenneth Brown

Research output: Contribution to journal › Comment/debate

Abstract

A browse through both the Solomon Islands Law Reports and judgments available on USP’s Web Site drives home the dominance of land as a central motif of litigation. Litigation over land is also commonplace in Vanuatu but formally is less visible as the courts have recently declined to adjudicate in land matters due to lack of resources.[1] Nevertheless the Vanuatu Law Reports accommodate a significant number of land related judgments.

Original language	English
Pages (from-to)	-2
