Land Law and Policy in Papua New Guinea (Second Edition) by John T. Mugambwa is a definitive legal text examining the unique and complex land tenure system of Papua New Guinea (PNG). It offers a comprehensive analysis of both customary and statutory land laws, contextualized within PNG’s cultural, social, and political framework.
The book explores themes such as customary land ownership, land registration systems, leasing and alienation of land, dispute resolution, and the implications of land policy reforms. The second edition includes updated legislative changes and case law, along with policy developments since the first edition, making it particularly valuable for legal practitioners, academics, policymakers, and students studying land law in the Pacific region.
