This book discusses the links between land access, property rights, and economic development, analyzing the results and limitations of a public intervention - Land Titling and Registration - that constitutes one of the main instruments for contemporary land policy in Peru. It attempts to provide a comprehensive analysis and discussion of the importance of institutions, like land property rights, in the context of market liberalization reforms. In operational terms, this means verifying whether land titling constitutes a necessary and/or sufficient condition to promote investments and increase land values.
