Policy Brief 17, Bellville: Institute for Poverty, Land and Agrarian Studies, University of the Western Capehttp://hdl.handle.net/10566/4270The concept of ‘willing seller, willing buyer’ has dominated the discourse on land reform in South Africa since 1994. Now, following the national Land Summit of July 2005, it appears that government is willing to abandon this approach, but there is little indication of what this might mean in practice. This paper explores the origins and meaning of the concept of ‘willing seller, willing buyer’ and the alternatives that might take its place.enWilling seller, willing buyer (WSWB)African National Congress (ANC)ZimbabweSouth AfricaLand reformOther
