Land Struggles in Post-Colonial Kenya

This chapter explores the complexities of land ownership and economic independence in Kenya following decolonization. It highlights the ongoing grievances over land redistribution, often favoring political elites over landless locals, and discusses the ethnic tensions that have resulted from these disparities. Furthermore, it examines the role of the 2010 constitution in addressing historical injustices, the challenges posed by multinational companies, and the precarious balance the Kenyan government must maintain amid public discontent.
