3. 2. Thirsting for Credible Commitments. How Secure Land Tenure Affects Access to Drinking Water in sub-Saharan Africa

   Författare :Martin Sjöstedt; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; property rights; land tenure; water; credible commitments; history of play; tying the grabbing hand; sub-Saharan Africa; institutions;

   Sammanfattning : Abstract The argument developed in this dissertation contends that access to drinking water is closely related to the institutional arrangements under which land is managed. However, while previous research goes astray in definitional debates over which form of land tenure – customary systems, state control, or private titles – best promotes increased water coverage levels, the argument here is that to be truly secure and stimulate citizen investments – in for example water infrastructure, wells, and housing – land tenure needs the backing of a credible governmental commitment.
