RISK‐COPING, LAND TENURE AND LAND MARKETS: AN OVERVIEW OF THE LITERATURE
综述了发展中国家非正式风险应对与土地产权关系的两类文献:一是习惯产权和公共财产的风险应对功能,二是风险应对通过分成租佃或困境销售导致土地市场不完善。
Abstract Over the last decades, a significant amount of literature has been published on informal risk‐coping in developing countries. In this paper, we review how informal risk‐coping has been addressed in the land tenure literature from two main perspectives: a first stream of research looks at how customary tenure and communal property perform key informal risk‐coping functions. A second subset of this literature analyses how informal risk‐coping creates land market imperfections through sharecropping or distress sales. The segmentation of the literature results from the Demsetzian property rights framework. Further research on risk‐coping and land tenure would benefit from examining recent work on property regimes.
