Abstract:
The durability of colonial mechanisms emerges in processes such as the codification of the principles and practices. Pressure for land reform is driven by external bodies, donor governments and international NGOs, claiming to be seeking to protect the interest of the poor. Yet these offer no respite for the growing numbers of landless people. Meanwhile misunderstandings and misrepresentations of land holding groups entrenches the subaltern voicelessness of their members, isolating them from any support in dealing with the challenges of too many people on not enough land.
Keywords:
