Abstract
This chapter examines the processes of transition and reconstruction in Mozambique. More specifically, it looks at the pivotal role of the agrarian question and argues that the ways in which it is perceived and informs economic policy matters a great deal to the achievement of broad-based development. It argues that planning and reform perspectives fail to grasp the nature of the agrarian question in Mozambique and the character of its peasantry as shaped by the colonial legacy.
