ABSTRACT
Greg Lloyd inspiration for the idea of land nationalization as 'medicine' and a regulating instrument is inspired by the Scottish Land Reform. The idea of land nationalization by him is rooted in the historical conflicts of landownership in the UK. However, in the development of Scottish land property rights legislation, there might be some idealistic visions of benefits coming from real land nationalization in terms of equity and effectiveness. The critical description relates to the agricultural land that provides a strong inspiration for the critical comments on the idea of land nationalization. More than 90 percent of the agriculture land in the Czech Republic is not managed by its original owners, but by tenants. For Czech agriculture, the model of manager and employees is dominant. German and Czech expropriation procedures for the purposes of spatial planning indicates stricter rules in the Czech Republic, so they often block effective measures in the current planning practice in Central Europe.
