I have had the privilege to peruse through this book by the learned author, Justice Osei Tutu. And I have one adjective to describe the book: 'IMPRESSIVE'! The learned author and Justice of the High Court adds to the growing list of Justices of Ghana's Superior Courts who have authored law books which have indubitably contributed to enrich legal research and practice in this country. Particularly for practicing lawyers at the Bar, it is refreshing to have our judges author books, to not only add to the existing legal literature but to appreciate the mindset of our judges and perspective from the Bench, in whose bosom the law lies. Judges, as public officials, I surmise, have a great deal to contribute to demystifying principles of law and its practice at our courts; and this is what the author has accomplished by this book. The learned author, since his elevation to the High Court in 2013 has had a reputation for being a stickler for details and affirnity for scholarly writings and judgments - a skill such that he effortlessly brings to bear in this book. I thus strongly recommend this book to lawyers, law students and lecturers, who would without a smidgen of doubt, greatly find it instructive in their legal endeavours. Yaw Boafo Esq. National President, Ghana Bar Association Justice Alexander Osei Tutu demonstrates a finesse in legal thinking that few can match. This book comes to complement his bourgeoning legal scholarship and serves to enrich the literature in the diverse substantive and procedural fields of law the two volumes cover. Lawyers, Judges, scholars and students will truly find the book a handy source material in their endeavours. Professor Ernest Kofi Abotsi Dean, Faculty of Law, UPSA This book is not just another addition to myriads of works on Ghanaian land law but more importantly a critical perspective on aspects of our law that have been significantly affected by provisions of the new Land Act 2020 and the groundbreaking modifications being made by our Supreme Court to land law and customary law at a rather fast pace than before. The author does not merely synthesize these new developments but seeks to deploy probing scholarship in exploring these contemporary trends in Ghanaian law. The audacity of the author to pinpoint manifest problematic dimensions of the provisions of the new Land Act in relation to well known doctrines like allodial title, eminent domain, and spousal property rights provides unique enthusiasm that propels the reader to seek to engage other topics in different chapters of the book so as to arrive at the destination the author is gravitating towards with his thought provoking and critical expositions. Undoubtedly, the book deals with themes that are carefully selected in terms of currency, relevancy and utility to lawyers, judges, law makers, law students and members of the public. This great work must certainly be read by everyone who is determined to appreciate recalibration of many areas of Ghanaian law in contemporary times.

This book examines current trends in customary land issues in Africa, focusing on the practice of converting customary land into leasehold tenure, particularly in Zambia. Since the enactment of the 1995 Lands Act No. 29 in Zambia, conversion of customary land has become a controversial policy, raising questions about the future of customary land and rural communities, and the role of traditional authorities in a changing environment. Alienating customary land into leasehold tenure has serious implications for local and national politics and gender dynamics. Analysis of these trends suggests that the policy of creating land markets on customary land is subjecting customary systems to the forces of change. However, governments that have adopted this policy have not, by and large, adopted measures to respond to these challenges. Although customary tenure is widely believed to be resilient, it is not clear how the customary system will navigate the current winds of change. Chapters in this book draw from the Land Use and Rural Livelihoods in Africa Project (LURLAP), a collaborative research project undertaken by staff and students at the University of Cape Town and the University of Zambia.
