While ‘land grabbing’ in Africa by China, and other populous, high-income Asian countries such as South Korea got quite some attention, land grabbing in post-Soviet Eurasia has gone largely unnoticed. However, as this paper shows, recently also in the latter region foreign state and private companies are accumulating vast expanses of farm land. The paper discusses the factors which make post-Soviet Eurasia such an attractive area for international investment, with arguably much more potential than most areas in Africa or Asia.

This report discusses the potential benefits of, and the current challenges for, agricultural land investment in Tanzania and Mozambique. The paper finds that there is little, if any, development potential in these investments. Indeed, the economic growth potential of investments in agricultural land is questionable due to an inadequate regulatory framework governing foreign direct investments (FDI) in the sector.

Library ResourceArticles et Livresjanvier, 2010Argentine
En este trabajo proponemos una mirada comparativa de la expansión territorial de las provincias argentinas de Buenos Aires y Santiago del Estero entre las décadas de 1850 y 1890. Mediante la conjunción de estudios regionales verificamos los mecanismos de apropiación de las tierras públicas, la emergencia de un aparato legal que intentará regular las prácticas de ocupación y la incorporación de agentes económicos de alcance regional y nacional, en algunos casos invirtiendo en ambas provincias.

Urban land takeups have become one of the main problems in Latin American cities within the last twenty years. From a social and critical perspective, the task at hand is double: to discredit common sense views considering take ups are crime offences and fostering poverty criminalization and, at the same time, to critically analyze the relations between the State and the individuals involved in land take ups, so that we may understand the complexity of this problem.
