Summary: Reviews the historical context and how that shaped current tenure patterns. These can be classified into three categories: private, customary and state land. However within this, there are many private arrangements, some traditional and others modern innovations responding to market and demographic pressures. Urbanisation is also presenting a new challenge in terms of planning, land management for economic growth, and the political need to reconcile communal with private ambitions. Considers the policy implications of these unusual tenure types.
