Abstract
This report investigates emerging trends evident
in the limited literature available on the impact of land
restitution on livelihoods, and suggests ways of thinking
about, and planning for, livelihoods.
The report has a two-fold emphasis: its primary focus is on
rural restitution claims where land has been restored, but it
also addresses rural land reform more generally. Where land
ownership has been transferred to land reform beneficiaries,
similar patterns and challenges may arise, regardless of
whether the land was acquired through the redistribution
or the restitution route.
