Abstract

Welcome to the fourth issue of Umhlaba Wethu, the update on land and agrarian reform in South Africa from the Programme for Land and Agrarian Studies at the University of the Western Cape. With the recent National Land Summit, South Africa’s Land Reform Programme came under public debate (see page 2). The slow progress of land reform was highlighted by both government and civil society and debate primarily focused on whether this is due to the ‘willing seller, willing buyer’ approach. The resolution to abandon this approach was welcomed by many of the landless, but what it means in terms of government’s strategy is still unclear.
