L’Algérie agricole et rurale 60 ans après : de la décolonisation au modèle concessionnaire
Après un rappel de l’héritage colonial et une critique du mythe de la prospérité coloniale, l’étude évoque les principales transformations opérées au cours des premières décennies (1960-1970) sous l’effet des politiques de réformes agraires (autogestion et révolution agraire), ainsi que les raisons qui sont au fondement des options libérales qui ont été retenues lors des décennies qui ont suivies (1980-2000).

Progress Towards the SDG Land Rights Commitments
Secure land rights for all—women and men, regardless of ethnicity or religion, or civil, economic, social, or political status—are foundational for achieving a world free of poverty, hunger, and systematic gender discrimination. So, in 2015, we celebrated when world leaders recognized the critical importance of land rights within Agenda 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals. Member States’ ambitious written commitments, however, have not been followed by on-the-ground action.
A national land policy in crisis: the case of ghana
Developing countries are increasingly focusing more on land policy as part of their development plans. Ghana created its National Land Policy in 1999 but hasn't updated it in over 25 years, despite significant changes in land governance. Land policy reforms since colonial times were carried out without a structured plan, leading to problems in land management and many legal disputes due to existing land laws' shortcomings. This situation prompted the development of a thorough Land Policy in 1999.
