Abstract

The paper analyses spatial dimensions of land tenure security in situations, where land tenure is predominantly informal, as is the case in major parts of the world. It takes its point of departure in a dilemma constituted by:
- on one side, the complexity of land tenure issues, and
- on the other side, the simplicity of practices of registration and scarcity of data on land tenure in many parts of the world.
