The linkage between sustainable development and customary law / Peter Ørebech and Fred Bosselman -- Three case studies from Hawaii, Norway, and Greenland / David Callies, Peter Ørebech and Hanne Petersen -- Social interaction : the foundation of customary law / Jes Bjarup -- How custom becomes law in England / David Callies -- How custom becomes law in Norway / Peter Ørebech -- Adaptive resource management through customary law / Fred Bosselman -- The place of customary law in democratic societies / Peter Ørebech -- Customary law, sustainable development and the failing state / Martin Chanock -- Towards sustainability : the basis in international law / Peter Ørebech and Martin Chanock -- The case studies revisited / Fred Bosselman, Hanne Petersen and Peter Ørebech -- The choice of customary law / Fred Bosselman.

For many nations, a key challenge is how to achieve sustainable development without a return to centralized planning. Using case studies from Greenland, Hawaii and northern Norway, this 2006 book examines whether 'bottom-up' systems such as customary law can play a critical role in achieving viable systems for managing natural resources. Customary law consists of underlying social norms that may become the acknowledged law of the land. The key to determining whether a custom constitutes customary law is whether the public acts as if the observance of the custom is legally obligated. While the use of customary law does not always produce sustainability, the study of customary methods of resource management can produce valuable insights into methods of managing resources in a sustainable way.
