Opis

This book is a comparative philosophical analysis of Melanesian communal land tenure and the 'Western' paradigm of private ownership. Inherent ideological tensions between Western development and communal ownership are highlighted while also drawing attention to conflict between principles of private ownership and environmental ethics.
