This paper reports the findings of an in-depth case study of a highly densely populated area in the Northwest of Rwanda

demonstrates that acute competition for land in a context
characterized by too slow expansion of non-agricultural income
opportunities has resulted in increasingly unequal land distribution
and rapid processes of land dispossession through both operation

Le retour des réfugiés de 1959, la politique de regroupement de l'habitat adoptée en
1996, la disette qui frappe le pays depuis 1999, la faible pluviosité qui prévaut dans le
