      abstract = {There is a growing recognition that well-defined and  enforceable property rights to land are important for a  range of economic and social functions. To assess land  governance at the country level, the World Bank has  elaborated a diagnostic tool based on empirical indicators  that aims to identify areas for improvement and that could  be used to monitor progress in the land sector. This tool,  the Land Governance Assessment Framework (LGAF), was first  tested in Peru, Ethiopia, Tanzania, Indonesia and in the  Kyrgyz Republic, and is currently being implemented in a  number of other countries worldwide. The present paper  summarizes the main results obtained from the Kyrgyz pilot  to illustrate the case of land governance issues that arise  in a post-transition economy formerly influenced by  Soviet-style land administration and which made the  transition towards private ownership of land over a decade  ago. Policy recommendations are derived based on the  assessment.},
