Report of the Ad Hoc Expert Group Meeting on Land Tenure Systems and Sustainable Development in Southern Africa
Author: Land and Sustainable Development in Africa
Author: Kojo Sebastian AmanorPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1848132611
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 241
Book Description
This book links contemporary debates on land reform with wider discourses on sustainable development within Africa. Featuring chapters and in-depth case studies on South Africa and Zimbabwe, Malawi, Kenya, Botswana and West Africa, it traces the development of ideas about sustainable development and addresses a new agenda based on social justice. The authors critically examine contemporary neoliberal market-led reforms and the legacy of colonialism on the land question. They argue that debates on sustainable development should be placed in the context of structural interests, access and equity, rather than technical management of land and resources. Additionally, they show that these structural factors cannot be transformed by institutional reform based on notions of elective democracy, community participation, and market-reform, but require a far more radical programme to redress the injustices of the colonial system that continue today. The book advocates a commitment to building sustainable livelihoods for farmers, calling for a redistribution of land and natural resources to challenge existing economic relations and frameworks for development.

Category : Food supply
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Both direct and indirect linkages between land tenure and food security have been suggested. This study aims for a better understanding of these linkages. Specifically it aims: to improve the current understanding of the linkages between land tenure systems, food security and sustainable natural resource management in Africa; to assess the current land tenure policy reforms in selected African countries; to draw lessons based on best practices as well as failures of ongoing and past policies; to make policy recommendations to assist States in addressing issues of land reform implementation and hence improve their food security situation and the stewardship of natural resources.
