Reviews

This collection is especially timely and valuable, following the 2005 Land Summit in South Africa. It provides a wonderfully rich mix of the ingredients needed for the rethink about land reform. An indispensable toolbox for struggles ahead. --Lionel Cliffe, emeritus professor, University of Leeds This compilation brings together a wealth of experience on land issues. The diversity of contributors has propelled the text beyond the contemporary discussion around land reform in South Africa. --Sue Mbaya, director, Southern African Regional Poverty Network
