Produktbeschreibung

The city of Daloa has now reached the peri-urban villages of Sapia, Tagoura and Zakoua, and customary landowners are being asked to make their plots available. This study aims to determine the impact of the urban dynamics of Daloa on land management in the integrated villages of Sapia, Tagoura and Zakoua. The methodology adopted is based on the use of abundant literature on the subject, supplemented by field visits, interviews with city managers (Regional Director of Construction and Urban Planning, Mayor) and a questionnaire survey of landowners in Sapia, Tagoura and Zakoua. The new subdivisions are opening up on plots of land that have already been the subject of transactions, either between indigenous Bété and populations from outside the region (allochthones and natives), or between the Mayor's office and applicants for building lots. The subdivision operations and the sale of plots of land, supported by strong land speculation, lead to land disputes that weaken social cohesion.
