Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
Land Acquisition refers to land obtained or acquired through purchase, transfer, donation or exchange from a state or private ownership, usually for dedication to a particular use (Law and Legal Definition, U.S. Legal, Inc.). Land Acquisition can take different forms depending on the situation. Land Acquisition might include few small parcels which needs minimal planning effort and documentation (Reclamation Lands Handbook, 2013). Acquisition of hundreds parcels of land require more planning and coordination and is called “a major acquisition”. Land Acquisition is implemented through four methods: (1) Acquisition through purchase or condemnation. Condemnation or “Eminent Domain” is compulsory land acquisition which usually takes a private property for a public property for a public purpose (Reclamation Lands Handbook, 2013). (2) Acquisition through donation. (3) Acquisition through transfer and (4) Acquisition through exchange. This paper is a compilation, classification and brief explanation of “non-compulsory land acquisition”, and focuses on a classification of incentive based land acquisition policies and strategies in gentrification process.
