Cet article situe les débats actuels autour de l’accès genré aux terres collectives au Maroc par rapport à une discussion plus large sur l’héritage colonial et la fabrique du droit coutumier. La construction coloniale de la ‘collectivité ethnique’ et l’institutionnalisation du ‘droit coutumier’ ont préservé la coutume comme catégorie juridique mais elles ont rigidifié son application en l’inscrivant dans le cadre plus général du droit positif.

ABSTRACTED FROM EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: In the last decade it has become widely accepted that insecurity of land tenure has a unique impact on women, particularly in the global South where, more often than not, women are the primary caregivers in a household.

Improving women’s access to land is high on the agricultural policy agenda of both governmental and non-governmental agencies. Yet, the determinants and rationale of gendered access to land are not well understood. This paper argues that gender relations are more than the outcomes of negotiations within households. It explains the importance of social norms, perceptions, and formal and informal rules shaping access to land for male and female farmers at four levels: (1) the household/family, (2) the community, (3) the state, and (4) the market. The framework is applied to Ghana.

El libro Somos tierra, semilla, rebeldía: mujeres, tierra y territorio en América Latina, realiza un recuento de las luchas de las mujeres en América Latina desde sus comunidades y organizaciones, partiendo del cuestionamiento al capitalismo patriarcal, que agrega a la expropiación de las tierras que sufren el campesinado pobre y los pueblos originarios la división sexual del trabajo por la cual se invisibiliza el trabajo de las mujeres, tanto el trabajo en la casa como en las pequeñas unidades agrícolas.
