摘要

该文件强调了尼日利亚放牧保护区的历史发展，考虑到放牧对土地的影响，牧民和农民之间最近发生的暴力冲突，农牧民冲突的原因和后果，以及放牧法的适用性。该文件认为，仅适用于尼日利亚北部各州的1965年《放牧保护区法》没有充分遏制牧民和农民之间不断发生的冲突，2016年《国家放牧保护区（建立）法案》的一些条款与1999年《尼日利亚宪法》（经修订）和根据《土地使用法》保护土地所有权。该文件最后毫不含糊地指出，农民和牧民之间要实现持久和平。各州应该颁布埃基提州制定的反放牧法，这为该州的牧民和农民带来了相对的和平。

期刊介绍： The African Journal of Legal Studies (AJLS) is a peer-reviewed and interdisciplinary academic journal focusing on human rights and rule of law issues in Africa as analyzed by lawyers, economists, political scientists and others drawn from throughout the continent and the world. The journal, which was established by the Africa Law Institute and is now co-published in collaboration with Brill | Nijhoff, aims to serve as the leading forum for the thoughtful and scholarly engagement of a broad range of complex issues at the intersection of law, public policy and social change in Africa. AJLS places emphasis on presenting a diversity of perspectives on fundamental, long-term, systemic problems of human rights and governance, as well as emerging issues, and possible solutions to them. Towards this end, AJLS encourages critical reflections that are based on empirical observations and experience as well as theoretical and multi-disciplinary approaches.
