This book is a unique study of the law of contract in a range of
South Pacific Island countries: Cook Islands, Fiji, Kiribati,
Marshall Islands, Nauru, Niue, Papua New Guinea, Tokelau, Tonga,
Tuvalu, Samoa, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu, to name a few.Whilst
this law has yet to establish its own regional identity, it differs
significantly from the law of contract which operates in England
and Wales. Incorporating an up to date survey of local
jurisprudence, this book discusses the common law principles with
reference to both regional decisions and case law from England and
Wales. Further, it explains how the law of contract differs from
country to country within the South Pacific and highlights the
areas where regional courts have chosen to follow national legal
developments in other countries, such as Australia and New Zealand.
Relevant legislation in operation is also discussed, including
local enactments and statutes that have been introduced from
overseas. In addition, a separate chapter is specifically dedicated
to customary laws, exploring the question of whether there is a
customary law of contract. It explains the role of customary laws
and their place within State law hierarchies of laws in South
Pacific legal systems. Subsequent chapters go on to explore the
relationship between customary laws and particular State contract
laws.Contract Law in the South Pacific is a valuable resource for
students, academics and legal practitioners, both within and
outside the region.
