BUILDING A CONSENSUS ON LAND REFORM: AN INSTITUTIONAL APPROACH

M. Mbongwa and Nick Vink

Agrekon, 1991, vol. 30, issue 4

Abstract: This paper examines areas of convergence and divergence between the Government and the ANC on the land reform programme of the former. The purpose is to identify conditions required to build a consensus on land reform among major players in the country. The paper finds no fundamental non-negotiable issues between the two. It advances three conditions to build consensus. First, the Government should involve the ANC in land reform. Second, this land reform should be of an interim nature. Lastly, Black people should be the main beneficiaries of land reform. The paper ends by drawing conclusions that are relevant to all actors involved in the debate on land reform.
