Its conclusions will also be germane for other former settler countries in Southern Africa.’ Professor David Simon, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK ’...this highly informative collection...provides a detailed overview of the historical, legal, political, and economic aspects of land redistribution in Zimbabwe since its independence in 1980.’ Foreign Affairs ’...by offering a glimpse behind the headlines of a story currently in the news, the text provides an interesting case study on land reform. This book will be an interesting read for anyone with a general interest in southern Africa or in questions of land reform, and a useful addition to a sixth form or undergraduate library.’ Geography ’This excellent book...carefully edited...comprises 16 chapters from a multitude of positions and disciplines. These range froom a characteristically trenchant critique by Oxfam’s Robin Palmer...through illuminating contributions by the editors themselves...to complementary chapters by Lionel Cliffe and Sam Moyo which between them brilliantly trace the political economy of land reform and redistribution over the first two decades of Independence; and...two particularly stimulating accounts by Jenny Brown and Susie Jacobs...’ The Round Table '...a useful volume.' European Journal of Development Research '...the book offers valuable insight into emerging outcomes of land resettlement just before the farm invasions began. Although overtaken by the fast changing developments on the ground, the book is still an important record of the policy debates that preceded the unfolding crisis. With short and succinct chapters by prominent scholars and practitioners from various disciplines, the book makes easy reading of a complex area of study.'
