Abstract
One of the major underlying forces in natural resources management, worldwide, is the
system of tenurial arrangements which define entitlements and usufructural rights to
land and other natural resources. In contemporary studies on sustainable natural
resources management, land acquisition and land titles have received major attention. It
is argued that in countries and societies where land tenure systems have not evolved
properly to accommodate changes in agriculture, industry and the provision of services,
the growth and development of such economies have stagnated.
