Zusammenfassung: | This book explores the political process by which property rights are defined and enforced in two traditional states in colonial Ghana. The case studies within the book ask how colonial institutions transformed indigenous political and economic life; and how colonization and decolonization affected prospects for future economic development and stability in Africa. The introductory chapter outlines a theory of the transformation of property rights systems. The remaining empirical chapters refine this theory through a detailed analysis of the transformation of property rights within an African context. These chapters draw explicitly on rational choice theories to analyse indigenous actors' attempts to redefine and enforce property rights to land by 'reinventing' the traditions of their respective communities. These theories help to understand why property rights systems across Africa remain fluid and insecure. |

The remaining empirical chapters refine this theory through a detailed analysis of the transformation of property rights within an African context. These chapters draw explicitly on rational choice theories to analyse indigenous actors' attempts to redefine and enforce property rights to land by 'reinventing' the traditions of their respective communities. These theories help to understand why property rights systems across Africa remain fluid and insecure.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="546" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">English.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Land tenure</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghana</subfield><subfield code="x">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Real property</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghana</subfield><subfield code="x">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Customary law</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghana</subfield><subfield code="x">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Agriculture and state</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghana</subfield><subfield code="v">Case studies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Land tenure</subfield><subfield code="z">Africa.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Real property</subfield><subfield code="z">Africa.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Agriculture and state</subfield><subfield code="z">Africa.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Biens réels</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghāna</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Politique agricole</subfield><subfield code="z">Ghāna</subfield><subfield code="v">Études de cas.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Biens réels</subfield><subfield code="z">Afrique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Politique agricole</subfield><subfield code="z">Afrique.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">LAW</subfield><subfield code="x">Administrative Law & Regulatory Practice.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Agriculture and state</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Customary law</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Land tenure</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Real property</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Africa</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJkHrMyfHC67yqRTycbrv3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Ghana</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJrwWdFrtwYQThrFvRGJXd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Eigendomsrecht.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Landgebruik.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Ghana.</subfield><subfield code="2">gtt</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Electronic books.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Case studies</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">History</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">The transformation of property rights in the Gold Coast (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCGxqFxJPHWJT8tHv9QTbkC</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Firmin-Sellers, Kathryn.</subfield><subfield code="t">Transformation of property rights in the Gold Coast.</subfield><subfield code="d">Cambridge [England] ;

Print version record. Introduction -- pt. 1. The institutions of the colonial state: The logic of indirect rule -- pt. 2. The reinvention of tradition : the evolution of property rights under indirect rule: Institutional failure in the Ga state ; Institutional creation in Akyem Abuakwa : the politics of property rights -- pt. 3. The transition to independent government: Redfining the institutions of central government : the writing ot the Coussey Constitution ; The return to the traditional state ; Conclusion. This book explores the political process by which property rights are defined and enforced in two traditional states in colonial Ghana. The case studies within the book ask how colonial institutions transformed indigenous political and economic life; and how colonization and decolonization affected prospects for future economic development and stability in Africa. The introductory chapter outlines a theory of the transformation of property rights systems. The remaining empirical chapters refine this theory through a detailed analysis of the transformation of property rights within an African context. These chapters draw explicitly on rational choice theories to analyse indigenous actors' attempts to redefine and enforce property rights to land by 'reinventing' the traditions of their respective communities.
