Finally, it is crucial to point out that most of the writers discussed in the
literature review confine their analysis to the impact of population growth and
inheritance patterns as the sole or primary factors in explaining the reduction of the
average size and increasingly unequal ownership distribution of holdings. This will
be elaborated on in Chapter 6, but suffice it to say here that, while obviously
important, this quantitative aspect ignores the more important issue. It is, again,
the nature of the colonial power and its policies, and the settler movement, with all
its characteristics (including its acquisition of land), both interacting with and
impacting the structure and internal changes in rural areas, that unleashed a process
that was qualitatively different from the Ottoman period, and which led to the
dispossession of large numbers of peasants.
