Land reform can be divided broadly into land tenure reform (the
establishment of secure and formalized property rights in land) and
land redistribution (the transfer of land from large to small
farmers). This paper therefore is in two parts. The first part
focuses on property rights, giving a short narrative of some of the
key land tenure and land policy issues. Though these issues remain
politically sensitive, a solid consensus is emerging on how to deal
with them - but only once the confusion is cleared up surrounding
private common property and formal and informal rights. The second
part addresses redistributive land reform - the redistribution of
property rights in land from large to small farmers. A heightened
sense of urgency surrounds the need to address land redistribution,
especially in the former settler colonies in southern Africa, but
controversy exists regarding the appropriate implementation
mechanisms. The study highlights the case of South Africa, because
success there would have tremendous regional and international
implications for land redistribution. A policy framework for
redistributive land reform is outlined, within which the competing
paradigms compete where it actually matters - on the ground.
