• Sommario/riassunto: Zimbabwe's Fast Track Land Reform provides new, in-depth and much-needed empirical research on Zimbabwe?s highly contested land reform programme. It examines how processes such as land acquisition, allocation, transitional production outcomes, social life, gender and tenure have influenced and been influenced by the forces driving the programme. Based on a broader geographical scope than any previous study, this is a landmark work on a subject of considerable controversy.
