Brainstorming Question:
What is land redistribution?
Basic Concepts of Redistribution
Definition:
 It is a public policy that transfers property
rights from large private landholdings to
small farmers and landless farm workers.
 It is aimed precisely at adjusting pre-
existing social and production relationships
by transferring the effective control over
land-based wealth and power from the
landed to the landless and near-landless
classes
 It takes land from the State or from
individual owners of large estates and
giving it to people who have no land.
 The universally accepted definition,
implicitly and explicitly, dissolves non-
private lands (ie, public, state or
communal lands).
 Most commonly redistributive land
reform is undertaken on land which are :
 officially classified as public/state properties,
 those area open for resettlement areas,
 lands that are generally not cultivated and
inhabited, and
 Those which are without pre-existing private
control.
 This type of land reform is most commonly
practiced on public land.
Cont.
 In the conventional land reform
literature,
public lands are defined as
unproductive and uninhabited lands
without existing land-based production
and distribution relationships.
Options for RLR
There are three options
1. State led or imposed RLR
2. Market Based RLR
3. Negotiated or Actor oriented RLR
Two Contrasting RLR
types
 The redistribution of land can fulfill a number of
functions in more sustainable development.
 A number of redistributive land reforms were
carried out in the world after WWII. History shows
two contrasting land reforms were carried out:
1. Radical ( 'genuine land reform) : like for
example, When quality land was really distributed
to the poor, Example in Japan, South Korean,
Taiwan, Cuba and China are all good examples.
2. Non-egalitarian' reforms (window dressing' or
even 'fake' reforms)his is a reforms that gave
only poor quality land to beneficiaries or failed to
alter the rural power structures that work against
the poor.
Functions of RLR
 The more successful reforms triggered relatively
broad-based economic development.
 By including the poor in economic development,
they built domestic markets to support national
economic activity
 The important roles redistributive land reform can
play in the move toward more sustainable
development are the following:
a) Redistributive Land Reform and Poverty
b) Redistributive Land Reform and Productivity
c) Redistributive Land Reform and Economic
Development
d) Redistributive Land Reform and The
Environment
