This volume aims to test the application of one particular theoretical framework to the Melanesian version of this phenomenon, which is the framework put forward by Derek Hall, Philip Hirsch and Tania Murray Li in their 2011 book, Powers of Exclusion: Land Dilemmas in Southeast Asia. Since that framework emerged from studies of the agrarian transition in Southeast Asia, the key question addressed in this volume is whether ?land transformations? in Melanesia are proceeding in a similar direction, or whether they take a somewhat different form because of the particular nature of Melanesian political economies or social institutions. The contributors to this volume all deal with this question from the point of view of their own direct engagement with different aspects of the land policy process in particular countries. Aside from discussion of the agrarian transition in Melanesia, particular attention is also paid to the growing problem of land access in urban areas and the gendered nature of landed property relations in this region. 606 $aLand tenure$zMelanesia 607 $aMelanesia$xReligious life and customs 607 $aMelanesia$xSocial life and customs 610 $aland policy 610 $aland tenure 610 $amelanesia 610 $aCustomary land 610 $aElaeis 610 $aHoniara 610 $aPapua New Guinea 610 $aVanuatu 615 0$aLand tenure 676 $a333.30995 700 $aMcDonnell$b Siobhan$4edt$01365350 702 $aMcDonnell$b S$g(Siobhan) , 702 $aAllen$b Matthew G. 702 $aFiler$b Colin 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910213851603321 996 $aKastom, property and ideology$93387161 997 $aUNINA
