The book focuses, naturally, on urban land issues, but needs to be seen in a wider context of changing governance in Angola, and indeed in the Sub-Saharan Africa region. The public consultation on the Land Law was the first such wide consultation by any government in Angola since the nation-state was created, and as such represents an enormous change in relations between the state and its citizens. The book therefore also aims to contribute to a wider review of the consultation process, as a means to draw on this experience to strengthen even further the good governance which this represents as the basis for future state-society partnerships in Angola. In addition the book will permit the research process and findings to be disseminated to a much wider audience, both nationally and internationally, and therefore also contribute to wider sectoral approaches to urban land management, as well as a wider appreciation of this initial experience of practice in good governance.
