Peace-building in a number of contemporary contexts involves
fragile states, influential customary systems and histories of land
conflict arising from mass population displacement. This book is a
timely response to the increased international focus on
peace-building problems arising from population displacement and
post-conflict state fragility. It considers the relationship
between property and resilient customary systems in
conflict-affected East Timor. The chapters include micro-studies of
customary land and population displacement during the periods of
Portuguese colonization and Indonesian military occupation. There
is also analysis of the development of laws relating to customary
land in independent East Timor (Timor Leste). The book fills a gap
in socio-legal literature on property, custom and peace-building
and is of interest to property scholars, anthropologists, and
academics and practitioners in the emerging field of peace and
conflict studies.
