Summary:
This book is written to transform land disputes toward win-win outcomes utilizing the latest sustainable development theory. Land has always been a source of conflict, a contest of competing homelands and ideologies, but it can also act as an agency of peace-making, promoting economic and social development. This dualism will be the theme of this book as there is a dearth of studies exclusively focused on land. The book's coverage is comprehensive, examining land and property disputes with case studies in modern times along with a problem-solving approach utilizing such economic theorems as Location and Growth Poles theories. The UN’s Sustainable Development Goals will be used as our over-arching framework. The overall aim of the book is to transform land disputes toward win-win outcomes utilizing latest sustainable development theory.
