Excellent- More about Beyond the Global Land Grab: New Directions for Research on Land Struggles and Global Agrarian Change
The global land grab, triggered by climate, food, and financial crises in the late 2000s, sparked debates among social movements, NGOs, international development agencies, and government agencies. This book addresses four key areas that move the debate beyond land grabs, including the role of contract farming and differentiation among farm workers, the broader forms of dispossession, Chinese agribusiness investments abroad, and the relationship between financialization and land grabbing. It will be of great interest to scholars and researchers interested in development studies, agrarian changes, and land struggles.

The convergence of climate, food, and financial crises in the late 2000s reignited global interest in farmland and agribusiness investments, giving rise to what became known as the global land grab. This phenomenon sparked lively debates among social movements, NGOs, international development agencies, government agencies, and academics across the globe.
This book delves into four critical areas that push the debate beyond land grabs. These include:
• The role of contract farming and differentiation among farm workers in consolidating farmland.
• The broader forms of dispossession and control mechanisms beyond classic land grabs for agricultural production.
• Discourses about and responses to Chinese agribusiness investments abroad.
• The relationship between financialization and land grabbing.
The chapters in this edited volume offer innovative directions to enhance and potentially transform the research agenda on land struggles and agro-industrial restructuring worldwide.
This book will appeal to scholars and researchers with interests in development studies, agrarian changes, and land struggles.
The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, Globalizations.
