Abstract
The RDP boldly asserted that a national land-reform programme would be the central driving force behind rural development. Over a decade later, this doesn't appear to be true. Were the RDP's expectations fundamentally ill-founded, or has land reform failed to realise its potential, asks Michael Aliber.-
