Dangerous liaisons: navigating women's land rights and disputes

Open access book
Dolphine Isinta - African Studies Centre Leiden (ASCL)
This book examines the experiences of women entangled in land disputes in Kenya. It illustrates women’s vulnerability to land disputes and demonstrates how men exploit their positions of authority to manipulate existing institutions to deprive women of their land rights. These women contend with violence and social exclusion in unclear land dispute resolution structures. While formal courts are more likely to safeguard women’s land rights, the process is often arduous, costly, and often tainted by corruption.
