We examine the emergence of land markets and their effects on forest land appropriation by farm households in Jambi Province, Sumatra, using micro-level data covering land use and land transactions for a period of more than 20 years (1992–2015). Based on a theoretical model of land acquisition by a heterogeneous farming population, different hypotheses are developed and empirically tested. Farm households involved in forest land appropriation differ from those involved in land market purchases in terms of migration status and other socioeconomic characteristics.

This article is dedicated to the study the ways of appropriation of land in the south border of Brazil, in the first half of the century XIX. The historiography has, for tradition, associated the appropriation of large tracts of land, in Rio Grande do Sul, with royal donations. That would have been made, mainly, in the form of 'sesmarias' donations. However, a more detained study shows than the public concessions were just one among other forms of appropriation of the land used by families that accomplished a voracious accumulation of lands.

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.

A partir de esta pregunta, el objetivo fundamental que se trazó fue analizar dos entregas de tierras realizadas por el INCORA en el municipio de Córdoba, Quindío en el marco de la Ley 160 de 1994. Este análisis se hizo desde el punto de vista de diferentes visiones teóricas y de historia política, social y económica que se han tenido sobre el problema de la distribución de la propiedad rural en Colombia.

Beyond concerns about agricultural productivity growth, issues of land governance have attracted global interest as demand for land acquisition by outsiders has increased rapidly but most of the transfers failed to live up to expectations and instead disrupted local livelihoods. We use the land governance assessment framework to identify key conceptual issues and identify how land governance in 10 African countries compares to global good practice.

These impacts are likely to include elevated air and sea-surface temperatures, increasingly unpredictable rainfall patterns, rising sea levels, and intensification of extreme weather events such as tropical cyclones and El Niño-related droughts.
