1. land reform

   Land reform refers to the process of changing the laws, regulations, and customs related to land ownership to ensure a more equitable distribution of land, particularly in cases where land ownership is concentrated in the hands of a small number of individuals or entities. It often involves redistributing land from large estates or farms to individual peasants or farmers. The purposes can be to alleviate poverty, stimulate economic development, redistribute wealth, correct historical injustices, or achieve social justice. Methods can vary widely, from non-violent negotiation to violent revolution or government decree. Different types of land reforms include tenancy reform, land consolidation, and land settlement.

1. Land reform

   Land reform involves the changing of laws, regulations or customs regarding land ownership. Land reform may consist of a government-initiated or government-backed property redistribution, generally of agricultural land. Land reform can, therefore, refer to transfer of ownership from the more powerful to the less powerful:such as from a relatively small number of wealthy owners with extensive land holdings to individual ownership by those who work the land. Such transfers of ownership may be with or without compensation; compensation may vary from token amounts to the full value of the land. Land reform may also entail the transfer of land from individual ownership — even peasant ownership in smallholdings — to government-owned collective farms; it has also, in other times and places, referred to the exact opposite: division of government-owned collective farms into smallholdings. The common characteristic of all land reforms, however, is modification or replacement of existing institutional arrangements governing possession and use of land. Thus, while land reform may be radical in nature, such as through large-scale transfers of land from one group to another, it can also be less dramatic, such as regulatory reforms aimed at improving land administration.
