Re: [Marxism] Cuba Distributes more than 45,000 land parcels

David P.A.:
"I've no idea what leaserhold in fee simple means, common law is beyond me.  As 
far as I understand this is an emphyteusis in that: the use and fruits of  the 
land are granted, through the payment of a cannon and for a long but  limited 
period, to someone with the obligation of conserving and potentially  improving 
its state. If leaserhold in fee simple is that, all the better."

If I remember correctly from the excellent documentary "How Cuba Survived Peak 
Oil" (http://www.powerofcommunity.org/cm/index.php), the term the Cubans use 
(and others too: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usufruct) is "usufruct". And such 
arrangements were a big part of the organic farming revolution described in 
that film.
