Land reform is the process of redistributing ownership of land, usually implemented by a government authority backed by the military. Land reform can distribute large land holdings to peasants, privatize common property holdings, or take private lands for government use.

Featured Organization

Alaska Center for Land Reform
The mission of the Alaska Center for Land Reform is to facilitate actions and efforts that empower individual Alaskans to own, use, develop, and further become proactive land stakeholders in the future of Alaska. Specifically, our mission is to: (1) restore the "Alaska dream", (2) safeguard Permanent Fund dividends for future generations, (3) prevent the total "lock-up" of state lands by special interest groups, (4) promote private land ownership, (5) promote reasonable and responsible development, (6) facilitate greater public access to state-owned lands, and (7) promote fair land compensation and dividend programs for individual Alaskan families
