Reviews
'The drama of African politics is increasingly a story of fierce competition over land, especially as states attempt to wrest control from customary authorities. In this carefully-crafted book, Lauren Honig shows that even across divergent contexts, longstanding institutions continue to shape and to constrain the realization of such ambitions, with important distributional consequences for citizens. With a wealth of empirical evidence based on extensive original data collection, Land Politics details the ways in which institutions affect the balance of power, and the likelihood of citizens engaging the state or local chiefs to advance their interests. This ambitious volume is a must-read for understanding the political economy of land in Africa.' Evan S. Lieberman, Total Professor of Political Science and Contemporary Africa, Director, Global Diversity Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Synopsis
Land Politics examines the struggle to control land in Africa through the lens of land titling in Zambia and Senegal. Contrary to standard wisdom portraying titling as an inevitable product of economic development, Lauren Honig traces its distinctly political logic and shows how informality is maintained by local actors. The book's analysis focuses on chiefs, customary institutions, and citizens, revealing that the strength of these institutions and an individual's position within them impact the expansion of state authority over land rights. Honig explores common subnational patterns within the two very different countries to highlight the important effects of local institutions, not the state's capacity or priorities alone, on state building outcomes. Drawing on evidence from national land titling records, qualitative case studies, interviews, and surveys, this book contributes new insights into the persistence of institutional legacies and the political determinants of property rights., This book provides new insight into the high-stakes struggle to control land in the Global South through the lens of land titling in Zambia and Senegal. Based on extensive fieldwork, it shows how chiefs and communities challenge the state, in an era of increasing scarcity and booming global land markets.
