This title was first published in 2002. While capitalism continues
to convert former communal land into private property, communal
ownership still exists throughout the world. By examining the
agricultural communities of Chile's semi-arid Norte Chico region
where the land commons are predominant, Gloria Gallardo Fernandez
investigates the historical origins, emergence, socio-economic
context and current development of this form of land tenure. The
case study is contrasted with communal land areas in Mexico, South
Africa, Switzerland and the UK, whose distinct historical and
socio-politcal developments are also explored. This investigation
documents almost four centuries, stemming from colonial archival
sources, and thus fills the theoretical and empirical gap in the
literature about this form of commons.
