Property Rights and Politics in Africa

Listen Tuesday, Mar. 11, 2008 at 1:29 p.m. in Conflict, Law, Politics

Access to land is often the source of bitter conflicts in Africa, where colonialism led to a profoundly unequal distribution of resources. That historic legacy continues to resonate across the continent, fueling post-election violence in Kenya and the protracted political crisis in Zimbabwe. We explore how historical grievances continue to influence political developments in Africa.
