Series: Routledge Revivals

First published in 1999, this volume is unique in that it gives a valuable comparison between the current state of land reform and sustainable development across greater Europe. The chapters are broadly divided into those related to the established systems of land reform and sustainable development encountered in Western Europe, and those which concentrate upon the evolving systems which are currently in the process of development in the former communist states of Eastern and Central Europe. The book is based on the papers presented at the 21st International Symposium of the European Faculty of Land Use and Development. The papers have been presented and peer-reviewed by some of the leading experts and practitioners of Land Reform in Europe. All papers have been extensively edited and revised, and are presented as chapters within the three sections of the book: Land Reform, Sustainable Development and Rural Land Development.

Reviews for Land Reform and Sustainable Development

'The themes of land reform and sustainable development are rarely combined in academic literature...This edited work is thus welcome as it brings together in one single volume a large variety of articles about both themes and many that explore the relationship between environmental sustainability and land reform...this volume deserves to be praised for providing papers which address practical issues often ignored in academic debates and, at the same time, making their relevance clear to any wide ranging discussions. For these and other reasons, it will certainly be of interest to both academics and practitioners concerned with the practical difficulties of land reform in Europe and the inclusion of sustainability considerations in land management.'
