The issue of land has always been a source of great controversy in South Africa. Ever since the predominantly black government came into office in 1994, policies have been set in motion to radically reform land ownership and distribution of land so as to compensate for past injustices - mostly due to the perception that white land owners (or their ancestors) unjustly "took" land from its rightful black owners. Is land reform in South Africa is attainable - or at all necessary?
