Abstract: | The present article examines the rise of nationalism in Kenya as a manifestation of the conflict over land during the colonial period centered mainly among the Kikuyu. The post-colonial land policies of the Kenya government are also briefly analysed to illustrate the continuity of previous policies and the emergent ideological position of the Kenya ruling elite.
