‘Struggles around land are one of the oldest and most enduring conflicts in human history. This timely and compelling book assembles state-of-the-art research and prominent scholars to explore the multidimensional issues at the heart of land-based conflicts. Key themes addressed in the book include: the commodification of land in different modes of capitalist development, the interplay of land use, nature conservation and public services, and the multilevel and participatory governance structures that are needed to fashion models of socio-ecological development that serve the interests of people and planet rather than private profit. This book will be essential reading for every discipline in the social sciences as well as for post-disciplinary students and scholars.’
