    Kenya

    Kenya is going through a period of intense transition. The country's main development policy, Vision 2030, is just entering the second Medium Term Plan of Implementation from 2013.

    Land acquisitions, either driven by foreign investments or domestic investment needs have continued to polarize opinions.

    Etiopía

    This paper provides evidence from one of
    the poorest countries of the world that the property rights
    matter for efficiency, investment, and growth. With all land
    state-owned, the threat of land redistribution never appears
    far off the agenda. Land rental and leasing have been made

    perception of continuing tenure insecurity remains quite

    The scope and urgency of the threats to
    Nigeria's rural land are no secret. In 2005, a working
    group dedicated to formulating a national agricultural land
    policy began the process with a comprehensive articulation
    of the challenges facing Nigeria's agricultural land.
    The litany included recognition that: 1) agricultural land
