Advances in Responsible Land Administration

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"... this book complements the overall scope of land administration systems by highlighting the importance and techniques of recognising informal tenure relations...

The concepts of responsible land administration elaborated in this book... can be seen as general principles that every government needs to adopt."

This book is needed."
