    Malawi, África subsahariana

    This paper is about land tenure relations among the matrilineal and patrilineal cultures in Malawi. Data from the National Agricultural and Livestock Census are used to characterize marriage systems and settlement and landholding patterns for local communities. Marriage systems correspond to customary land tenure patterns of matrilineal or patrilineal land holding. The differences between the two major ways of land holding represent a particular challenge for land reforms intending to unify rules for land tenure and land devolution.

    Africa's growing demand for food has been met increasingly by imports from the global market. This, coupled with rising global food prices, brings ever-mounting food import bills. In addition, population growth and changing demand patterns will double demands over the next 10 years. Two key issues must be addressed: (a) establishing a consistent and stable policy environment for regional trade in fertilizers; and (b) investing in institutions that reduce the transaction costs of coordination failures.

    on the actions that developing countries can take to mitigate land grabs through strengthening national land governance so that it is transparent, is accountable and protects communities’ rights.

    Malawi

    This paper studies nonmarket
    institutions that facilitate exports. In Malawi, as in many
    other developing countries, farmers face numerous
    constraints that disconnect them from export markets. The
    paper explores the role of a local institution, the burley
    tobacco clubs, in bridging smallholders to exports. Burley
    clubs potentially enable farmers to increase their tobacco
    farming productivity by providing services related to
