Conflicts in Project Land Acquisition and Displaced Persons' Resettlement and Rehabilitation

Understanding Issues for Crafting Solutions

Summary

Land acquisition for industry and infrastructure are throwing up new challenges in all cases. While there are several protests and conflicts related to land acquisition and displacement among the influenced community, there are disappointments, exasperations and desperation among the project developers. The governments are usually caught in political, bureaucratic and legal wrangling. Suspicion, apprehensions, fear and hopelessness prevail among community who are either displaced or waiting to be displaced.

The crux of the book is to look into reasons why so different members of the community like the old and young, men and women, rich and poor respond to the prospects of displacement in complex ways. And also why, many of them are still dissatisfied even after long years of rehabilitation. There are many successful and unsuccessful, equal and unequal, easy and painful transitions. This book looks for the reasons.
