Résumé documentaire — langue originale

"The argument of this paper is that the outstanding challenge facing community property management is to find institutional frameworks which both secure community tenure of those resources into the next century, and provide a workable, and forward-looking operational basis for their management. Without this success, individualising and centralising strategies which have so successfully undermined communal property over the last century will gain yet more, and final, ground. \n \n"The findings of this paper are hopeful. The author identifies two forces in modern sub-Saharan Africa which are, intentionally or otherwise, prompting the very kind of institutional development that is necessary to encompass and sustain local common property. The way in which one sub-Saharan state, Tanzania, is making progress in this regard, is explored. The author posits that this success is possible largely because a statutorily-defined institutional framework for common property management is already well-established at the community level and able to be brought into play. Ultimately, other sub-Saharan states will need to develop comparable socio-legal institutions to support working common property into the next century."
