Natural rights problem

[Griff]

There are countless ways to protect property. In Somalia they are developing a system based on tribal relationships. As I understand it, the land belongs to the tribe but you own your improvements. They are developing relationships with corporations based on this idea. Free ports are part of the deal, companys apparently build their own infrastructure. Next step the stars! sorry thats a bit of a leap Anyway the tribal law around it is developing organically as needed. I've heard it described as a Kritarchy, but I'd have to look it up.

Unfortunately much of Africa is in part a casualty of the Cold War. The Soviets supported Black Nationalism so the communist contempt for personal property is being acted on by the likes of Robert Mugabe. His land redistribution is now starving his people. You can't really blame them for wanting to toss the whites but the bottom line is their government has a history of negating property rights which will probably be used against dissenters. Africa was cut off from its past by colonialism, communism, and nationalism, now they need to cut their own path, hopefully in a way that fits their culture.
