"Edited by Chigara, this is the second volume of a two-volume work exploring land issues in the states of the Southern African Development Community. Whereas the first volume focused on current issues, this volume provides a more future-oriented and reform-based perspective. Nine contributions discuss socio-economic and cultural issues of land reform, including economic, social, and cultural rights; gender and social justice; community-based natural resource management; and the political economy perspective of land reform, as well as such topics as constitutional property guarantees, the African Union approach to land issues, and farm workers on private agricultural land holdings."—Book News
