This field-redefining book puts land redistribution back on the map as a route for addressing deep inequalities in development, promoting improved livelihoods, and ensuring better environmental protection. Written by a world-leading team of scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and activists, all hailing from the regions they discuss, Redistributive Land Reform Revisited compares land reform experiences in eight countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Europe. Each case study is based on longitudinal research covering economic, political, and environmental impacts over 30 to 40 years. By examining global land reform experiences, the book contributes to future policies that promote economic development, equity, and social justice. Written in a style accessible to researchers, policymakers, and practitioners and activists alike, this book is a must-read for anyone seriously concerned with how informed land reform policies can lead to more socially and environmentally sustainable development.
