dc.description.abstract This study assesses the alignment of land use, land tenure, and land market outcomes in El Salvador with public policy aspirations in recent decades for efficient, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable development in both urban and rural spaces. In doing so the study indirectly gauges the effectiveness of land sector institutions in facilitating such developmental outcomes in agricultural production, urbanization, and forest management. Chapter 1 briefly reviews some of the prominent struggles over land in El Salvador and outlines the salient features of today's institutional framework for land governance. Chapter 2 asks the question, "How effective have public policy interventions, including the Agrarian Reform, been in reducing rural inequality and tenure insecurity?". Chapter 3 explores what has happened to the lands transferred to Agrarian Reform cooperatives under the last iterations of the Agrarian Reform. Chapter 4 asks the question, "How has land governance in El Salvador responded to the challenges of urban land supply in the last decade?". In Chapter 5 the extent to which urban spatial expansion in El Salvador has been occurring in an inclusive way is explored. Chapter 6 presents the findings of the original analyses of land use in relation to deforestation. Chapter 7 analyzes available land market data in three Departments, Ahuachapan, Santa Ana, and Sonsonate, to identify trends and land use dynamism in the first decade of this century. Chapter 8 looks at the study's empirical findings from a more integrated, cross-sectoral perspective so that their implications for public policy are better understood. The final Chapter of the study presents policy options for consideration by the Government of El Salvador and the country's civil society organizations in order to address the key challenges related to land tenure, land use, and territorial planning. en
dc.description.abstract El estudio se centra en evaluar la alineación de los resultados del uso, la tenencia y el mercado de la tierra en El Salvador con políticas públicas que, en las últimas décadas, han tenido como objetivo el desarrollo eficaz, inclusivo y sostenible desde el punto de vista ambiental tanto en las zonas rurales como urbanas. De esta forma, el estudio evalúa indirectamente la eficacia de las instituciones del sector agrario para brindar este tipo de resultados relacionados con el desarrollo para la producción agrícola, la urbanización y la gestión forestal. Se basa en la evaluación empírica del dinamismo reciente del mercado y del uso de la tierra como base para analizar la eficacia de las instituciones del sector agrario y brindar opciones normativas. Entre otras cosas, este tipo de evaluación emplea una serie de análisis temporales sobre los cambios detectados, a través de imágenes espaciales, en el uso de la tierra; comparaciones de datos obtenidos en diferentes censos sobre la producción y la tenencia de la tierra; estudios sobre el mercado de venta de tierras, y referencias cruzadas de datos sobre la pobreza. es
