Despite 250 years of land reform all over the world, important land inequalities remain, especially in Latin America and southern Africa. While in these regions, there is near consensus on the need for redistribution, much controversy persists around how to redistribute land peacefully and legally, often blocking progress on implementation. This book focuses on the 'how' of land redistribution in order to forge greater consensus among land reform practitioners and enable them to make better choices on the mechanisms of land reform.

Local and Community Driven Development: Moving to Scale in Theory and Practice provides development practitioners with the historical background and the tools required to successfully scale up local and community driven development (LCDD) to the regional and national levels. LCDD gives control of development decisions and resources to communities and local governments. It involves collaboration between communities, local governments, technical agencies, and the private sector. Since the 1980s, participatory approaches have received new impetus via participatory rural appraisal, the integration of participation in sector programs, decentralisation efforts of developing countries, and greater space for civil society and the private sector. This book traces the emergence of the LCDD synthesis from these various strands. Local and Community Driven Development provides the theoretical underpinnings for scaling up, guidance on how to adapt the approach to the specific institutional and political settings of different countries, diagnostic tools, and step-by-step instructions to diagnose the national context, adapt policies, and expand programs.It will be a useful guide for rural and urban development practitioners, public administrators, and policy makers who wrestle daily with the problems the book addresses. "Local and Community Driven Development: Moving to Scale in Theory and Practice" is a very timely reminder that 65 years is long enough for piloting and demonstrations to establish the credentials of local and community driven development (LCDD) to be taken to scale. There is overwhelming empirical evidence that LCDD as an organic, pragmatic, and sociological approach has pulled millions out of poverty by unleashing their potential.
