A case study of the anti-dam movement in southern Brazil shows how particular local mobilizations are linked to national and global economics, politics, and social movements. In the early stages, the progressive church was the predominant influence and was largely responsible for framing the key issue as peasants' right to land, while left intellectuals contributed a class analytical frame. After 1988, the weakening of the regional power company ELETROSUL, the crisis of the Left after the fall of the Berlin Wall, the defeat of the agrarian reform movement, the rise of national and international ecology movements, and the anti-dam movement's need for a broader political and financial base all contributed to the adoption of a broadened and more pro-active land/energy/ecology frame and an alliance with international environmentalism.

Synchronization Model

The change of ownership and control of agricultural and non-agricultural land for all Indonesian people is a mandate of Article 7, 10 and 17 of Act Number 5 Year 1960 under the Indonesian Agrarian Reform. In practice, however, people can own property rights beyond the stipulated limit. The article aims to improve a fair distribution of land through the proposed model of supervision and property rights land tenure reforms. The data synchronization developed through an online system can be the tool to improve the supervision and management of land ownership and tenures. The methods used are the statute approach, socio-legal approach, and case study approach. The statute approach analysed existing statutes regarding land and land rights in Indonesia, the result is further observed in practice through the socio-legal approach by observing the data and figures in local regions. The case study approach reviews past judgments in the matter to examine the consistency and sufficiency of prevailing laws and policy and the direction of its developments. This study found that there is still an ineffective implementation of the law resulting in people having lands more than their limit. The proposed data synchronization model developed through an online system can solve this problem by harmonizing data in local regions with the existing data at the Civil Registry Office and the Tax Office. This study provides an essential contribution to the existing literature of Indonesian Agrarian Reform as well as a guideline for policymakers.

This paper is a summary of the findings of research work conducted in two case studies in the Rift Valley, Kenya. This study used the Neo-Institutional theory to interrogate how the rules and regulations (institutions involved) of the agrarian reform process in Kenya are constantly changing and helping to shape the livelihoods of social actors around Mau Forest. The first case study—Ndungulu, is a settlement scheme where the Ogiek ethnic community were resettled between 1995 and 1997 after the land clashes of 1992. The second case study is the Kamuyu cooperative farm, a post-colonial settlement scheme owned by a cooperative society that was founded in 1965 by members from the Kikuyu ethnic group. This study employed qualitative data collection methods intermittently between 2012 and 2017 for a total of two years. A total of 60 interviews were conducted for this research. Thirteen (13) of these were key informant interviews with experts on land. The qualitative interviews were complemented by participant observations and nine focus group discussions. The qualitative data from the interviews and focus group discussions were transcribed, coded and analyzed thematically. Observations documented as field notes were also analyzed to complement the study findings. In this paper, the challenges, bargaining position and power play between social actors and government institutions implicated in the agrarian reform process in Kenya has been brought to the forefront. For instance, due to the structural issues that date back to the colonial period, the Ogiek have found innovative ways to maintain their daily existence (e.g., maintaining traditional methods of apiculture in Mau Forest). However, constraints in accessing forest land has resulted in them taking desperate measures, namely; selling off land to the Kalenjin in what is called “distress land sales”. On the contrary, the neighboring Kikuyu have maintained their land ownership status despite recurrent ethnic clashes that have occurred during general election years.
