South African Members recently voted in favour of a motion to begin a process that will allow land expropriation without compensation. Now our neighbouring country Zimbabwe went through the same process of fast tracking land reform and displaced commercial white farmers, replacing them with blacks, but the results were not as desirable as many would have wanted. Can South Africa do the same process so it doesn’t have the results it had on Zimbabwe.
To discuss this further we are joined by:
•Jackie Dugard Associate professor at the Wits School of Law
•Ndabezinhle Ziqubu Programmes coordinator for the Association for Rural Advancement
