Nigerian Land Law and Custom: Routledge Revivals

Autor T. Olawale Elias
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 oct 2024
Originally published in 1951, Nigerian Land Law and Custom (now with a new preface by Olusoji Elias), the first of its kind, is an excellent comparative study of the whole system of land tenure in Nigeria. There are, of course, a few anthropological attempts, almost invariably designed as or inspired by Government Reports on some specific areas of the country, and their aim is therefore often administrative or fiscal. This book is accordingly an attempt to create a legal order out of the chaos of lay approaches and to examine and systematize, as far as possible, such principles of indigenous tenure as are discernible in available materials in the light of the growing body of case-law.
This book will be of value to students and researchers of African law and custom, and of comparative jurisprudence.
