Building bridges - law and justice reform in Papua New Guinea

Abstract

This book comprises six informed contemporary narratives and historical commentary by a group of distinguished regional scholars writing in the context of growing concern about an emerging 'arc of instability' in the Southwest Pacific region. This collection of papers derives from a public seminar at the Australian National University in 2001, intended to provide some commentary and discussion on a number of significant events then taJcing place in Melanesia, and in the context of growing concern about an emerging 'arc of instability' to Australia's north. The collection has subsequently been expanded and updated. Show more
