Corporations, investors and states continue to reshape control over land and resources, often through quieter, normalized processes. In this article, Professor Jun Borras traces the evolving dynamics of dispossession, resistance and global land struggles today.
Based on research carried out by the Commodity & Land Rushes and Regimes project, this article traces the historical and ongoing social, economic, political and ecological impacts of land grabs, water grabbing and ocean grabbing.
Borras investigates the various ways in which different types of land grabs occur, how normalization happens and how to struggle against these.
