Since independence in March 1990, the unequal distribution and ownership of land as a leftover of colonial-era dispossession and appropriation has been a major issue of sociopolitical contestation in Namibia. This article summarises the structural colonial legacy and the efforts made towards land reform. Reference points are the country’s first national land reform conference in 1991 and the second national land reform conference in October 2018. The analysis points to the contradictory factors at play, seeking to contextualise land reform in between the colonial legacy of racial discrepancies and ethnicity as well as class, as more contemporary influencing factors.

殖民主义、土地、种族和阶级：第二次全国土地会议之后的纳米比亚

自 1990 年 3 月独立以来，土地的不平等分配和所有权作为殖民时代掠夺和占有的剩余物一直是纳米比亚社会政治争论的一个主要问题。本文总结了结构性殖民遗产和为土地改革所做的努力。参考点是该国 1991 年的第一次全国土地改革会议和 2018 年 10 月的第二次全国土地改革会议。 分析指出了相互矛盾的因素，试图将土地改革置于种族差异和民族的殖民遗产之间作为阶级，作为更当代的影响因素。
