This paper brings together a general overview of urban land issues affecting developing countries and five supporting papers on individual aspects. In Volume 1, the introductory overview paper provides a general context for consideration of urban land issues, with particular attention to those which most directly impinge on the preparation and implementation of projects and programs in which the World Bank is involved. The first of the supporting papers deals with problems encountered in calculating the economic valuation of land on the basis of opportunity cost. The second supporting paper provides a thorough discussion of different types of urban land tenure in relation to objectives of equity and efficiency. In Volume 2, the initial paper deals with measures to influence the allocation of surplus values created in the development of urban land, including various forms of land taxation and government acquisition and development of land. The other two supporting papers in this volume deal with other forms of regulation of land use, the general limitations to which they are subject, and the characteristics of individual regulatory tools.
