ABSTRACT
Since 1890, the land question has singularly had the most significant impact on Zimbabwe's political and economic history. It can be argued that a national solution to the land issue may well be the single most important national instrument as they enter the 21st Century. Tenure security in terms of exclusive land rights of groups and/or individuals is the very basis of economic, political and social power and status. This is why it is agreed worldwide that land reform is essentially a political process. That as it may, land reform has to meet more than political objectives; land reform has to provide a solid basis for long term economic growth and social integration. Social integration is a major asset to society because cultural diversity in a situation of harmony enriches any society. The single most serious enemy of land reform is not having a visible and meaningful practical programme that is running on the ground.
