Collective Land Ownership Empowers Farmers, Challenges Unfair Expropriation
The article discusses how land expropriation in our country affects the ownership of collective land. It points out that the Property Law doesn't clearly define who owns collective land, leading to issues like unequal ownership between collective and individual land. The researchers suggest that collective land should be owned by all members, with a membership system in place to balance collective and individual rights. They propose using market principles and a transfer mechanism for collective land ownership, along with a strong judicial review system for land taking. The goal is to ensure fairness and public benefit in the land expropriation process.
