The land dispossession stamped by acts was one of the pillars of the segregation system implemented in South Africa during the colonialism and the apartheid (1948-1994).

The land reform (government program of restitution / redistribution of land stolen from blacks) was, and remains, a major challenge for the realization of democracy in the country.

Creating acts were one of the main instruments used by the South African state to deal with the paradoxes of rights restitution.

The Jacob Zuma's government (2009-2014) was marked by the creation of new institutions and new legal frameworks regarding the land reform policies.

This dissertation aims to analyze the disputes and controversies arising from the creation of the new legal framework on land reform.

Disputes on the topic in the public debate (meetings of working groups, meetings of parliament, the media, public statements) allow us to compose the ideological frameworks related to land reform, contributing to a better understanding of political action of the dynamics on the issue of land in the country.
