Taming a wickedpolicy problem: a policy overview of property rights and governance of Africas rangelands

This paper views property rights in dryland Africa as presenting a.wicked.policy problem.Securing rights has generally involved several interrelated and complex processes.Each of these.solutions.shows, is in turn beset by new problems, key among them are entrenching local participation in decision making, preventing manipulation and capture by elites, lack of accountability of local level institutions and authorities, and the onset of a new generation of user conflicts.Increasing avenues through which dialogue and communication can occur seems one way of creating a shared understanding.In addition to cultural and institutional raw materials among groups can serve as a locus for building dialogue.Because wicked problems are complex, gaining traction necessitates iterative processes that are adequately flexible to accommodate learning and the adjustment that learning implies.
