Informes e investigacionesDiciembre, 2010ZambiaIn the name of development, governments in southern Africa are reformulating land policies to facilitate privatisation of customary land rights.

Publicación revisada por paresEnero, 2016ZambiaThis paper presents the empirical findings of a research study undertaken in the Western Province of Zambia.
