The Economist has an short article arguing that China would solve all sorts of problems by allowing peasants to own land.  The argument is a bit hand-wavy (personally, I think that the doomsday scenario mentioned in the article of farmers all selling their land en-masse and moving to cities which would then sprout big shanty towns rings quite true), but the article has a bit of a summary history of land ownership in China, which I found interesting to read.
