I see this is the CSB collaboration of the week. Unlike some topics, I'm not knowlegable enough on this to jump in and write (though I'll see if I can do some useful research). Some topics, though, that I think should be engaged by this article:
Also, if anyone can simply add here in Talk a list of potentially useful source material (online and on paper), that would be very helpful. I'll be looking for some sources and sharing what I find. -- Jmabel | Talk 01:52, Oct 19, 2004 (UTC)
We'll need to make the distinction between land reform and Land rights. Some information on land rights see the links on the discussion page-- nixie 08:16, 19 Oct 2004 (UTC)
I would like to see some clarity around whether prior owners are getting fair market value for the land redistribution and violence that is occurring as a result of the land reform announcement. I have seen several articles on the internet along with video that indicate many are getting nothing and that white farmers in particular are being killed for their property. The videos and articles show people of little means as being the victims. The videos are the victims speaking and showing the injuries and describing family members being killed. Clearly there is more going and victimizing whites and killing them is not reasonable. I am sure there will be those saying its pay back but two wrongs do not make a right. Justice must be for everyone if this country is to transform itself. I hope they do not screw it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.48.245.36 ( talk) 16:00, 23 April 2018 (UTC)
Plan Zamora in Venezuela seems to focus on land that is owned by the government or currently lying fallow. This runs counter to the definition of land reform we have in the lead paragraph, where the two examples are both of land that is under use. More on Plan Zamora from Global Exchange and Narco News (two of the first google hits).
The government is a large land owner too- the definitation in the lead is a bit narrow. It really should say that land reform is the redistribution of public or privately held land for use by small farms and so on -- nixie 00:44, 20 Oct 2004 (UTC)

I believe there is an urban anaolgue to this that could get an article and should be linked to, but I don't know the term and don't know if we have an article. Under French law, and probably under some others, there is apparently a statute intended to prevent real-estate speculators from hoarding empty apartments and allows the government (I think at the city level) to intervene and expropriate the property. If anyone knows anything about it, I'd appreciate it. -- Jmabel | Talk 07:06, Oct 25, 2004 (UTC)

Someone with familiarity with land reform in the United States should add something. My understanding is that a series of late 19th century land reforms resulted in squatting rights, basically if you live on a piece of land and no one stops by to assert their ownership by collecting rent (even a token one) or to demand you leave for some fixed period then you can apply for a title to the land. The period is usually between 7-10 years. Plus, there is also the system of title insurance which facilitates easy exchange of property. Basically a homeowner pays $1000-2000 a year to an insurance company that investigates the property when you first buy it, and defends your title. If they fail to defend your title they refund you the full purchase price, or at least your morgage if you have a minimal policy. Often a country engaging in land reform has many conflicting titles to the same land, so anyone selling a title to the land can't demand its full value because the new owner has to contend with the possibility that another title holder might show up some day. And, the lack of clear titles means no insurance company is willing to sell title insurance at reasonable rates. -- Zenyu 00:06, Dec 22, 2004 (UTC)
This may be what the user above described, but it's kind of shocking that the page on land reform doesn't mention the Homestead Act in the United States, which inspired many other LR attempts around the world. 130.64.30.178 ( talk) 19:51, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Squatting is too legally free, almost everywhere (except directly under the kitchen window) although the ancient scandinavian legal and linguistic definition of squatting is different.

Indian Casino on Special Election Ballot The Associated Press Published: August 4, 2005 MARYSVILLE, Calif.—The Yuba County Board of Supervisors has placed a measure on November’s special election ballot asking voters whether they support the development of a tribal hotel-casino.
Supervisors voted unanimously Tuesday night to put an advisory measure before voters asking if a casino should be built on 40 acres in south Yuba County.
Leaders of the Enterprise Rancheria have proposed building an eight-story hotel with a 207,760-square-foot casino. The county supervisors have already given their support under an agreement approved two years ago that would give the county a share of the profits if the casino is built.
The tribe must still get approval from federal officials and Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. County officials said they hope the advisory ballot measure will demonstrate local support for the project.
- If you find your neighbor's reindeer on your seasonally agreed on property, when your reindeer has the agreed rights of it. - kill it, but do not eat it, leave it as a sign for your neighbor, that he should watch better after his lost, maybe hungry, reindeer. - if you are really hungry, please feel free to eat it. - wait until the youngest reindeer are old enough to figure out if they should be killed or not. - do not start any major reindeer war, try to negotiate a new solution. unsigned comment

There seems to be an error in the sentence: "This has ensured an almost life long loyalty from the farmers and the communists have been in power ever since." The page List_of_political_parties_in_India states that the India Congress Party (145 seats) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (138 seats) both have more seats in parliament than the Indian Communist Party (Marxist) which has only 43 seats. I hope someone can check into the accuracy of this and correct the statement regarding "the communists have been in power ever since" to accurately reflect present political power in India. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.206.117.184 ( talk • contribs) 13 Jan 2006.
Cut from the lead paragraph: "The philosophical princip of any land reform is 'the possession of land to whom who cultivate it'." At the very least: "princip" ==> "principle" and "whom who" ==> "those who", or something like it. But, more importantly, I wonder if that can really be said to be the principle behind all land reforms. Some land reforms have been collectivizations, taking land out of the proprietorship of supposedly inefficient smallholders. -- Jmabel | Talk 06:14, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
I think it would be a good idea to merge Agrarian Reform into this article. What does everybody else think? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Takethemud ( talk • contribs) 11 April 2006.
This edit with no citation says, with reference to Ho Chi Minh's land reform "at a cost of tens of thousands of lives". Given the continual fighting in Vietnam in the period, and the difficulty of working out the net effects of any given policy in those circumstances, I would doubt that this can be objectively known either way, tens of thousands being not many against such a background. I am particularly suspicious of a totally uncited claim like this. Does anyone have something citable on this? Otherwise I think it should be removed. - Jmabel | Talk 06:20, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Obviously it isn't "reform" to those who are having their property stolen. The entry is an example of "loaded", propagandist phrase- terminology with built-in POV that Wikipedia should avoid. -- Mike18xx 07:25, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Dear Mike18xx
why do you claim that the term "Land reform" shall be already POV? The tiny little word reform says nothing about whether it is something good or not; it says only that something is reformed, changed -to better or to worse. Land reform is an official and usual term. Of course, many of the "wealthy landowners" who are (sometimes without compensation) expropriated by a land reform would say stealing -but that's their POV.
Béka 14:50, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Propose merger of this, and the similar Agrarian reform, with either nationalization or expropriation.-- Mike18xx 08:19, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
-- Mike18xx 12:15, 10 August 2006 (UTC)
Disagree to the proposal. Land reform is a form of Property redistribution and should be mentioned in that article. But land reform was historically and is today such an important and special issue that it merits an own article. Béka 14:09, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree that the article is very lacking in sources, particularly for the first three sections (Introduction, Land ownership and tenure and Arguments for and against land reform). I will begin adding sources/removing several unsourced claims tomorrow evening EST. Kcsl ( talk) 16:57, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
The Che Guevara quote just got removed for the second time. I think that quoting Che Guevara in this article (or GWB in democracy) might be appropriate, considering that both people were a significant influence on the topic regardless of whether or not they were nice guys or a "genocidal assholes". On the other hand, only quoting Che at the top of a list and no one else might give him undue weight. Does anyone else have an opinion about this? -- Explodicle ( T/ C) 02:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
In reviewing the first three sections of the article, I think, in addition to adding more citations, it may be useful to add some additional structure to Land reform, land ownership and tenure, and arguments for and against land reform. As they are written now, these sections reflect the more controversial aspects of land reform. While such aspects should not be ignored, adding some nuances to the issue might be useful as well (such as the earlier suggestion on the talk page to i.e. add a section for "Land reform for poverty alleviation and food security." Also, given the incredibly varied nature of land ownership and tenure, I think an introduction to the broader ideas of this issue (i.e. formal vs. informal land rights, customary vs. statutory land laws) may provide useful before listing the specific examples that are offered in this section. Some additional structure to the arguments for and against land reform (as well as some additional content on arguments in favor of reform) would also strengthen this section further. Does anyone have any additional comments/suggestions? I'll plan make a few adjustments over the next few days and will place particular emphasis on adding citations as well.

The administrative provisions are also held for the extent in the forest clearance per calendar year for defined uses and the subsequent reforestation or replanting.
The administrative provisions for the land use are also held under the strategies for town and country planning @ a time. The tasks in the work plans listed under the town and country planning @ a time are also held for the goals and the performance including the feasible options @ reforestation or replanting.
The adoptations in the land legislature for the individual users -

I think that quoting Che Guevara in this article (or GWB in democracy) might be appropriate, considering that both people were a significant influence on the topic regardless of whether or not they were nice guys or a "genocidal assholes". On the other hand, only quoting Che at the top of a list and no one else might give him undue weight. Does anyone else have an opinion about this? -- Explodicle ( T/ C) 02:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
In reviewing the first three sections of the article, I think, in addition to adding more citations, it may be useful to add some additional structure to Land reform, land ownership and tenure, and arguments for and against land reform. As they are written now, these sections reflect the more controversial aspects of land reform. While such aspects should not be ignored, adding some nuances to the issue might be useful as well (such as the earlier suggestion on the talk page to i.e. add a section for "Land reform for poverty alleviation and food security." Also, given the incredibly varied nature of land ownership and tenure, I think an introduction to the broader ideas of this issue (i.e. formal vs. informal land rights, customary vs. statutory land laws) may provide useful before listing the specific examples that are offered in this section. Some additional structure to the arguments for and against land reform (as well as some additional content on arguments in favor of reform) would also strengthen this section further. Does anyone have any additional comments/suggestions? I'll plan make a few adjustments over the next few days and will place particular emphasis on adding citations as well.

Given the events in Paraguay, I have tried to make the section on Japan both more factual and readable in English.
