 Rukuni; Zimbabwe: LAND TENURE, GOVERNANCE AND SUSTAlNABLE DEVELOPMENT
Land tenure is the burning issue of the future in Africa and probably holds the key to social, economic and political progress.
As alluded to earlier, however, private land rights are not God-given or sacred rights, but rather that private property is a creation of the state.
After all, private property is not and cannot be an absolute right (Dorner, 1992).

Arguments that claim that private retirement accounts would lead to great wealth are highly misleading, as low-income individuals would only accrue interest (assuming a healthy stock market) on their smaller contributions.
