Zusammenfassung:
Why and how do some countries title Indigenous lands in some places, and at certain times, but not others? What accounts for the selective implementation of Indigenous people's collective land and natural resource rights?

Other commonly held views are that economic interests and state weakness block these efforts. Giorleny Altamiro Rayo shows Indigenous land titling is neither random nor methodical. Rather, she argues that state elites are motivated to title Indigenous lands to ensure internal order and reinforce the state's territorial power in remote regions.
