Summary |
'Land reform' has in recent years become a test case for democratic reforms and the pursuit of social justice in countries such as South Africa, Australia, Namibia and Zimbabwe. This publication aims to enrich the discussion on a highly disputed topic by providing the facts as well as a thorough analysis of the main processes of, and institutions responsible for, land reform and land claims in Zimbabwe, Namibia, South Africa and Australia. This Occasional Paper analyses the policies pursued by the respective countries and comments on the outcomes achieved. In addition, comparisons are drawn between the respective experiences, and possible lessons and pitfalls are identified |
