This paper describes the results of an empirical investigation of the variation in reforestation among different types of forest tenure in British Columbia. Indicators of management, based on available statistical information about not satisfactorily restocked (NSR) lands and artificial reforestation on cutover lands, are compared across four major forms of tenure, ranging from relatively secur...
Formal land tenure systems protect the property rights of landholders and provide new paths for economic development. Crofting is a traditional form of land use in Scotland’s Highlands and Islands with characteristics that prevent crofters from taking advantage of an individualized tenure system. As a result this condition has contributed to slow economic growth or even the appearance of povert...
There are several alternative hypotheses about the effects of territoriality, kinship and prey availability on individual carnivore distributions within populations. The first is the land-tenure hypothesis, which predicts that carnivores regulate their density through territoriality and temporal avoidance. The second is the kinship hypothesis, which predicts related individuals will be clumped ...
This article focuses on the relationship between in-migration from Northern Ghana and changing land tenure norms in Ghana's central "transition zone" in Brong Ahafo Region. Using the complex adaptive systems (CAS) theoretical framework, it theorizes this relationship as part of a wider set of "co-evolving" social and environmental conditions across Brong Ahafo. It presents new qualitative resea...

Results indicate that documentation is indeed associated with greater fixed investment independently of an array of control variables. Productivity also ...

This history has had wide implications for the development of the region: economically, politically and socially. The cadastral (property based) systems in theses countries have been influenced by British land conveyance and registration practices, and by colonial history. To date, ...
The purpose of this chapter is to describe preliminary results in the attempt to model the linkages between property rights, risk, and livestock development in Niger. Rainfall variation is often identified as the major environmental risk faced by agropastoralists (for example, Swallow 1994). Among the many riskmanagement strategies that are identified, livestock mobility is seen as one of the m...
Land tenure and tenure security are among the most important factors determining the viability and success of Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) initiatives. The premise of the present paper is that territorial conflicts lead to forest loss and compromise the successful implementation of REDD+. Within this context, the main objectives of this paper are to (i) d...
