This phenomenon became known as the \"global land grab\", and sparked vibrant debates among social movements, NGOs, international development agencies and various government agencies and academics worldwide. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book addresses four key areas that are moving the debate \"beyond land grabs\". These include the role of contract farming and differentiation among farm workers in the consolidation of farmland; the broader forms of dispossession and mechanisms of control and value grabbing beyond \"classic\" land grabs for agricultural production; discourses about, and responses to, Chinese agribusiness investments abroad; and the relationship between financialization and land grabbing. The chapters in this edited volume propose new directions to deepen and even transform the research agenda on land struggles and agro-industrial restructuring around the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers interested in development studies, agrarian changes and land struggles. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, \u003ci\u003eGlobalizations. \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45584204071150,"sku":"9781032112152","price":67.19,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/beyond-the-global-land-grab-paperback-softback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
