    Global

    Despite the existence of a legal framework defining the right to fair compensation, and notwithstanding the vast literature on transnational and domestic land deals, no theory has been developed so far to allow for a specific analysis of the economics of fair compensation in large-scale land acquisitions (LSLAs), limiting our understanding of the underlying reasons of success or failure of this important legal protection mechanism.

    Land policies are formulated with the goal of addressing land use management challenges. Therefore, a thorough investigation is required to assess effectiveness of land policy processes. The unknown land use policy effec[1]tiveness is how and where the formulation and identification of land use problems affect the throughput of policy implementation. The main objective of this paper is to assess the effectiveness of land policy processes using models of public policy analysis.

    Natural disasters and pandemics are evolving as major global threats that are posing an enormous challenge to socio- economic and environmental wellbeing. Using a real time analysis of the impressive role played by Community Forest User Groups (CFUGs) in Nepal in responding to the 2015 earthquakes (Earthquake-15) and COVID-19, this paper explores the scopes, capacities, institutional strengths and attributes required for community-based institutions such as CFUGs to become effective in managing and responding natural or other disasters.

    Pathways to human well-being in the context of land acquisitions in Lao PDR

    Laos

    Land acquisitions are transforming land-use systems globally, and their characteristics and impacts on human well-being have been extensively analysed through local case studies and regional or global inventories. However, national-level analysis that is crucial for national policy on sustainable agricultural investments and land use is still lacking. This paper conducts an archetype analysis of a unique dataset on land concessions in Lao PDR to provide a national-scale assessment of the impacts of land acquisitions on human well-being in 294 affected villages.

    Ideally, poverty indicators improve because poor people’s livelihoods are improved. They can, however, also improve
    because poor people are expelled from the territory. This article explores the case of the cattle region of Chontales, Nicaragua, which
    during 1998–2005 experienced economic growth and declining poverty rates, spurred by investments and organizational development.
    The article argues that in the absence of pro-poor coalitions, these investments facilitated the return and strengthening of the local elite

    The paper critically engages with sustainable development goal targets (SDG-2- Target 2.3; SDG-5) to examine how and why large-scale agricultural land acquisitions modify the social relations of women’s food access. The study draws from impacts of various plantation schemes in Cameroon and Ghana. It argues that the framing of the SDG-2 appears to co-exist alongside promotion of corporate-led agricultural investment.

    This article summarizes the results of a research program conducted in 11 Latin America countries, addressing two
    questions: (1) what factors determine territorial development dynamics that lead to economic growth, poverty reduction, and improved
    income distribution? (2) What can be done to stimulate this kind of territorial dynamics? We highlight five “bundles of factors” that we
    found in 19 case studies of territorial development 1, as well as the role of social territorial coalitions that appear to be necessary for

    Natural resources constitute an important axis around which rural territorial dynamics revolve. Based on empirical
    registration of how applications for and denouncements of natural resource use are dealt with in two Nicaraguan rural territories, this
    paper examines the importance of inequality for the institutional practices through which district-level governance of natural resource
    use takes place. Notable differences are identified. The paper concludes that institutional practices which promote rule-based natural
