Land Tenure Reform in Sub-Saharan Africa
By analysing the results of several case studies this book assesses the impacts of land tenure reform interventions implemented in Benin, Ethiopia, Rwanda, and Zimbabwe. It focuses on how these interventions impacted tenure security, agricultural productivity, and social inclusion under different socio-political and economic contexts. The authors argue that inadequate attention paid to the core characteristics of rural social systems obscures the benefits of achieving tenure while overlooking the potential for social reform.
