Just released! A collection on Land grabbing in Latin America
Editor: John Harriss
vol. 33, no. 4, December 2012
Special Issue Guest Editors:
Saturnino M. Borras Jr., Cristóbal Kay, Sergio Gómez and John Wilkinson
There are eight articles in this Special Issue: seven research articles plus the guest editors’ introductory essay, covering country experiences in Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, Bolivia, Argentina, Guatemala and Mexico. A close reading of the contributions to this Special Issue can contribute important insights into the debate on land grabbing. In addition to introducing a previously under-explored geographic region into the emerging land grab literature, they also provide insights into the distinct political economy of the region that informs the way land grabs actually occur, and are perceived and understood. The contribution of these papers to the broader scholarship on land grabbing can be seen in at least seven ways elaborated in the introductory essay.
The publication of this special issue is co-sponsored by the Transnational Institute (www.tni.org)
