Description

Gaining Ground?: Rights and Property in South African Land Reform offers an ethnographic examination of land reform policy and practice in post-apartheid South Africa, centred on the province of Mpumalanga. The book documents local initiatives and conflicts, revealing how landless communities have challenged the South African state's privatization agenda and resisted market-driven approaches to land distribution. Through detailed fieldwork, the author demonstrates how the poorest sectors have advocated for rights-based rather than market-driven land reform models, asserting that land restitution carries obligations beyond commercial objectives. This work provides critical insight into the contested nature of property rights, agrarian transformation, and state policy in contemporary South Africa, making it essential reading for scholars of economic history, development studies, and African land rights.
