“…The potential utility of cadastral data as an indicator of state capacity has been acknowledged in the past (Soifer , 9), as has the scarcity of cross‐country data on cadasters (Haldrup and Stubkjaer ). We contribute to the literature with an original indicator— Cadaster —that captures the quality, geographic extent, and length of time this instrument of monitoring was in place before democratization.…”

This article presents a theoretical argument of how and why democratization at different levels of state capacity matters for public goods provision and subjects the argument to empirical tests. Building on rational choice theories of public goods production, we argue that credible enforcement before credible commitmentdemocratizing after the state has acquired high levels of state capacity-leads to a more efficient social order than the opposite sequence. Using a theoretically grounded and novel indicator of historical state capacity-the extent and quality of cadastral records-the analysis shows that those countries where the state developed extensive enforcement capacities before democratization exhibit, on average, better provision of essential public goods and are less corrupt.

“…Kot so ugotovili že Steudler, Rajabifard in Williamson (2004) ter Haldrup in Stubkjaer (2012), še vedno ne obstaja mednarodno priznana metodologija, ki bi ovrednotila in primerjala uspešnost sistemov za upravljanje nepremičnin. Predstavljene študije in raziskave opisujejo stanje v nepremičninskih sistemih z nekaj enostavnimi kazalniki in analizami 6 .…”

KEY WORDS KLJUČNE BESEDE uvodTrendi vzpostavljanja učinkovitih sistemov za upravljanje nepremičnin so se v zadnjih desetletjih okrepili v številnih državah, k čemur so svoj delež prispevale mednarodne organizacije in združenja s finančno in strokovno podporo. Narašča podpora razvoju teh sistemov, enako kot podpora vzpostavljanju prostorskih podatkovnih infrastruktur ter, širše, trajnostnemu upravljanju naravnih virov in zaščiti okolja, s ciljem zagotavljanja socialno-ekonomskega razvoja na svetovni in lokalnih ravneh. Izzivi, kot so skupna blaginja, ekonomska rast, zmanjševanje revščine, energetska varnost, zdravstveno varstvo, podnebne spremembe in drugi, so v ospredju zagotavljanja višje kakovosti življenja za vse prebivalce. Za njihovo dosego je treba izvajati različne ukrepe ter upoštevati medsebojno prepletenost in soodvisnost aktivnosti.Upravljanje nepremičnin zagotavlja podlago za izvajanje nacionalnih politik in odločevalskih procesov, ki jih z ustrezno finančno podporo usmerjajo vlade posameznih držav. Zato je pomembno, kako načr-tujemo razvoj teh sistemov, ali in kako merimo njihovo učinkovitost, kako uvajamo najboljše prakse iz domačih in tujih okolij ter kako posledično prilagajamo plane in strategije, da odpravimo ugotovljene razlike. Po Burnsu (2007) je uspešnost in učinkovitost upravljanja nepremičnin omejena s političnim in socialnim okoljem državne ureditve ter močno pogojena s sposobnostjo javnega sektorja in organov lokalne uprave za izvajanje teh politik. Koristno orodje v teh procesih je benchmarking, s katerim se iščejo in uvajajo najboljše prakse v poslovanje organizacij in ki se izvaja tako, da ga vsi deli organizacije razumejo in želijo doseči svoj največji potencial. Benchmarking dobiva večji pomen tudi pri spodbujanju razvoja na nepremičninskem in prostorskem področju, zato bo njegova vloga v sistemih za upravljanje nepremičnin proučena v nadaljevanju. oPredeliTev, naMen in CilJi BenCHMarKinGaZa benchmarking 1 je razvitih veliko opredelitev in se uporablja za več različnih namenov. To je predvsem orodje za merjenje, učenje in izboljšave (Jantti in McGregor, 2007). Za Evensa (1994) benchmarking govori o odločitvah, katera področja v organizaciji se morajo izboljšati, kako razumeti obstoječo prakso in rezultate, se učiti od drugih in uporabljati naučeno na način, ki bo vodil v izboljšano izvedbo. Po Elmutiju in Kathawali (1997) je bistvo benchmarkinga v procesu opredelitve najvišjih standardov odličnosti za proizvode, storitve in procese in nato uvajanje ustreznih izboljšav, da bi se dosegli standardi, ki jih imenujemo najboljše prakse. Kot navaja Schniederjans (1998), izhaja benchmarking iz obdobja okoli leta 1800 in ga lahko opredelimo kot proces stalnega izboljševanja, ki se izvaja na več načinov. Po Schniederjansu (1998) se proces začne z notranjim pregledom organizacije, njenih proizvodov, praks, procesov in strategij, ki jih želijo izboljšati, ter nadgrajuje s primerjavo z zunanjim, superiornim standardom, ki ga organizacija želi doseči.

“…Issues relating to ‘who owns what’, ‘who uses what’ and ‘when to use what’ are still the policy focus in many developing countries. There is consensus among most scholars that land registration is one of the ways of addressing these issues (Abubakari et al, 2018; Haldrup & Stubkjær, 2013; Korea et al, 2016; Stig et al, 2014; Zeeuw & Lemmen, 2017; Zevenbergen, 2002). These authors argue that land registration will provide assurance on ownership and right to use a legally acceptable interest in land to serve as prima facie evidence to title and protect the owner from unlawful eviction.…”

Land Administration Reforms: Institutional Design for Land Registration System in Ghana

Securing land rights and the rationalisation of the debate on formalisation of land rights through titling have been the focus of many scholars for some time now. At least, there is consensus among most scholars that land registration is one of the ways of addressing these issues and that current land registration system in most developing countries needs reforms. This paper examines the design and implementation processes of land registration reforms in Ghana. Using the Greater Accra Regional Lands Commission as a case study and institutional design theories, the article analysed how land registration reforms were design and implemented. The paper shows that the design strategies for the reforms were harmonisation of policies and laws and organisation restructuring at the organisational and process levels, but staff resistance to change led to implementation flaws. The paper recommends that institution design of land registration reforms must be combined with the theory of change where all staff are taken through the new organisation’s work ethics and attitudinal change processes adequately.
