By exploring the perspectives of these two investor countries, Goetz sheds light on various factors, including public policy, state-society relations, national developmental contexts, ideologies, and international relations. This book provides valuable insights into the political economies that facilitate these investments and the development ambitions and institutionalized paradigms they are part of.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 666g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 226 x 147 x 15 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783837642674\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ariane Goetz","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44097313898746,"sku":"9783837642674","price":28.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646129849889_book.jpg?v=1646904696","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/land-grabbing-as-development-chinese-and-british-land-acquisitions-in-comparative-perspective-9783837642674","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
