The purpose of this paper is to provide a contemporary perspective on post land reform Zimbabwe with special focus on the youth. It uses the social reproduction conceptual framework to show that two decades after land reform, there are generational questions which are now arising in the new resettlement areas which need deeper, empirical and more nuanced analysis to comprehend. In a context where some countries in Southern Africa are grappling with the best ways of dealing with their land questions, it shows that from a youth perspective, the Fast Track Land Reform Programme (FTLRP) has important lessons.,The study was largely qualitative and grounded in an interpretive research paradigm. It employed various data gathering instruments and solicited for responses from 151 young people as well as 11 key informants. The study used the social reproduction perspective as a conceptual and evaluative tool to ascertain the outcomes of the FTLRP from a social reproduction perspective with special focus on young people.,The study showed that there are some young people in the resettlement areas who blame the land reform programme for the challenging socio-economic situation which they are facing. It also shows that for the youth, the FTLRP has had multi-dimensional impact; while some are complaining, others have managed to use their agency to access natural resources and land, which has seen them “accumulating from below”. For some young people, land reform has positively transformed their lives, while others feel that it has limited their opportunities.,The paper provides new and contemporary insights on post land reform Zimbabwe. This is an area which is increasingly gaining traction in scholarship on the FTLRP. In addition, the paper provides a unique perspective of looking at the issue of the youth from a social reproduction perspective; this is a unique academic contribution. Lastly, the paper is useful insofar as it transcends the debates on the FTLRP to proffer a unique analysis on the social reproduction dimensions of the FTLRP.

本文的目的是提供津巴布韦土地改革后的当代观点，特别关注青年。它使用社会再生产概念框架表明，在土地改革之后的二十年中，新的安置区现在出现了世代问题，需要更深入，经验和更细微的分析来理解。在南部非洲一些国家正在设法解决其土地问题的最佳方法的情况下，这表明，从青年的角度来看，快速土地改革计划（FTLRP）具有重要的教训。立足于解释性研究范式。它使用了各种数据收集工具，并征求了151名年轻人和11名主要信息提供者的回应。该研究使用社会再生产的观点作为一种概念和评估工具，从社会再生产的角度确定了FTLRP的结果，特别侧重于年轻人。研究表明，移民区中有一些年轻人将土地归罪于土地。他们面临的具有挑战性的社会经济形势的改革方案。这也表明，对于年轻人而言，FTLRP产生了多方面的影响；尽管有些人在抱怨，但其他人却设法利用自己的机构来获取自然资源和土地，这使他们“从下面积累”。对于一些年轻人来说，土地改革已经改变了他们的生活，而另一些人则认为这限制了他们的机会。本文为津巴布韦土地改革后提供了新的和当代的见解。这个领域在FTLRP领域的学术研究中越来越受到关注。此外，本文提供了从社会再生产的角度审视青年问题的独特视角。这是独特的学术贡献。最后，本文超越了关于FTLRP的辩论，对FTLRP的社会再生产维度进行了独特的分析，因此是有用的。
