Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a significant contribution to the literature on land reform in various African contexts. While the economic evidence is clear that secure property rights are a necessary condition for catalysing broad-based economic development, the governance process by which those rights are secured is less clear. This book details the historical complexity of land rights and the importance of understanding this history in the process of trying to improve tenure security. Through a combination of single country case studies, comparative case studies and regional comparisons, the book is unequivocal that good governance is paramount for improving the performance of land reform programmes. All attempts at moving towards more formal secure tenure require congruence with informal norms, beliefs and values, and a set of clear systems and processes to avoid corruption and unintended negative consequences.

Book excerpt: This study explores Lesotho's land tenure reforms, in particular the 2010 Land Act, in relation to its implications on land access and livelihoods of the poor, who currently hold rights to land that is subject to reform. Using key literature, key informants and a case study, it offers a distinctive perception on Lesotho s land governance challenges. It also provides an exceptional insight into the country s over-dependency on aid that ultimately influences policy agenda. The strategic power and influence by the donor community and foreign investors correlated with their access to and predominance of land, and relied on a reciprocally advantageous alliance with the government. It is through this alliance that the country experienced subtle land grabs, which the study elaborates thoroughly in subsequent chapters. The rationale behind reforms was that customary landholding lacked security of tenure and was an economic detriment. The modern tenure that donors and foreign investors are advocating for have a potential to leave the indigenous landless. These realities came to light when the study discovered that people do not only need land for agriculture, but for social, political and spiritual aspects of their lives. While land is central to people s lives, the government accepted the terms of aid that consequently lead to the enactment of a policy that has elements of dispossession. This study does not question the significance of economic development through maximum utilization of land and other natural resources. Nonetheless, there is a need to rethink land tenure reforms that are not country lead as there is a misalignment between policy and the needs of the poor rural communities. The implementation of the reforms may have negative implications for the marginalised. The policy is more likely to benefit foreign investors over local people.

Book excerpt: "This book examines the impacts of land tenure reform interventions implemented in Benin, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe. Since 2000, many African countries have introduced programs aimed at providing smallholder farmers with low-cost certificates for land held under customary tenure. Yet there are many contending views and debates on the impact of these land policies and this book reveals how tenure security, agricultural productivity and social inclusion were affected by the interventions. It analyses the results of carefully selected, authoritative studies on interventions in Benin, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe and applies a realist synthesis methodology to explore the socio-political and economic contexts. Drawing on these results, the book argues that inadequate attention paid to the core characteristics of rural social systems obscures the benefits of customary tenure while overlooking the scope for reforms to reduce the gaps in social status among members of customary communities. The book will be of great interest to students and scholars of land management and use, land and property law, tenure security, agrarian studies, political economy and sustainable development. It will also appeal to development professionals and policymakers involved in land governance and land policy in Africa"--
