Writers have guest-edited an African Studies Review forum on Understanding Land Deals in Limbo in Africa which examines the contentious politics of incomplete land grabs in Senegal;Tanzania and Zambia. These studies show that even when land deals are cancelled;stalled;downsized;transferred to new owners;or stay dormant and speculative for many years;they can still produce far-reaching consequences that often go unnoticed. The complex interplay of land governance;local political dynamics and capital’s own contradictions can push land deals in different and unexpected directions.

Au Burkina Faso, le secteur agro-industriel, qui s’occupe essentiellement de la transformation des produits de l’agriculture, de l’élevage et de la pêche, est largement dominé par une main-d’œuvre féminine, contrairement aux autres secteurs de l’économie plutôt intensifs en travail masculin. Dans le Plan National de Développement Economique et Social (PNDES), les autorités entendent accorder plus de soutien à ce secteur en termes d’investissements, afin de lui permettre de se développer et d’assurer un processus de transformation structurelle de l’économie nationale.

Historically, water management has not been easy in the sub-region. Three climate interlinked factors have had a direct influence on it. The first is the aridity that affects all countries of the sub-region. It is impressing to think that about ninety percent of the area of the Maghrebine countries receive less than 100 mm rainfall per year that is poorly distributed. The second is the huge evaporation from open water reservoirs. For example, annual losses due to canal evaporation reach 2 cubic km in Egypt. Another factor is drought.

Land is the raw material of nearly all wealth, but neither the development nor the administration of any plot of land can be planned economically or carried out efficiently without complete and accurate knowledge of its size, its boundaries, its neighbors, its owners and the natural and artificial features within its borders.
