对非洲土地权利“传统”或非正式制度的传统看法是,它们阻碍了农业发展,需要土地所有权或登记来鼓励土地转让给生产力更高的农民,改善农民获得信贷的机会,并为土地改良、土壤保持和新技术的投资创造激励。尽管土地资源和现有土地保有权制度面临的压力越来越大,但非洲许多地区的大量证据对这种传统观点提出了质疑。土地所有权的成本可能相当高,其效果也与预期相反。在土地保有权变化和不确定性不断加剧的情况下,一些更便宜的土地所有权替代方案可能更有效地保障非洲农民的土地权利。
The conventional view of “traditional” or informal systems of African land rights is that they impede agricultural development, and that land titling or registration is needed to encourage land transfers to more productive farmers, improve farmer access to credit, and create incentives for investment in land improvement, soil conservation and new technology. In spite of growing pressure on land resources and on existing land tenure systems, there is much evidence from many parts of Africa which calls into question this conventional view. The costs of land titling may be quite high, and its effects contrary to expectations. A number of cheaper alternatives to land titling may be more effective in guaranteeing the land rights of African farmers in situations of growing land tenure change and uncertainty.
