This book adds to the growing number of books by Melanesians on their region, and draws on the author's personal knowledge and experience of events that have shaped Melanesia. It is about the state of law in Papua New Guinea, and goes beyond custom to look at contemporary institutions. Custom continues to be prominent in village conflict resolution and acts like a "two-edged sword", moderating the rapidity of change and, at the same time, acting as a catalyst for change. Basic principles of English law are discussed and compared to the actual practices of law in Melanesia, and alternatives that would enable Melanesian countries to achieve a measure of harmony between classical and contemporary Melanesia are suggested."--Back cover

Death of a Muruk

A Play

By: Bernard Narokobi

This is one of Professor Bernard Mullu Narokobi's first plays that he wrote. Death of a Muruk is an old village tale in Wautogik, East Sepik Province where Narokobi was from. The story is a common legend among the Arapesh people in East Sepik. This is Narokobi's own account of the popular fable. Bernard Narokobi derived a lot of inspiration from his village. He called it the "University of Melanesia," where lessons are offered on life. A lot of his plays like the Tok Pisin play "Tait Bilong Sun, Tait Bilong Nait," which was performed at the University of Papua New Guinea Outdoor Theatre by the Arts and Drama Society, and "Strangers Are My People" are in fact old village legends of Wautogik.
