While such land projects are currently the focus of widespread media and scholarly interest, the role of the state in driving, negotiating and facilitating these acquisitions deserves closer attention. This book analyzes how state land policies, stakeholder interactions and privatization schemes interact to facilitate large-scale land acquisitions. It includes a study of the various forms of state intervention, the influence of foreign agencies, governments and private entities, and a look at how states interact with local populations. The inclusion of case studies in settings throughout the African continent should attract the interest of both an academic and non-academic readership |

While such land projects are currently the focus of widespread media and scholarly interest, the role of the state in driving, negotiating and facilitating these acquisitions deserves closer attention. This book analyzes how state land policies, stakeholder interactions and privatization schemes interact to facilitate large-scale land acquisitions. It includes a study of the various forms of state intervention, the influence of foreign agencies, governments and private entities, and a look at how states interact with local populations. The inclusion of case studies in settings throughout the African continent should attract the interest of both an academic and non-academic readership BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Real Estate / General bisacsh Wirtschaft Land use, Rural Africa Real property Africa Foreign ownership Farm ownership Africa Investments, Foreign Africa Grundeigentum (DE-588)4072130-9 gnd rswk-swf Landnahme (DE-588)4166614-8 gnd rswk-swf Afrika Afrika (DE-588)4000695-5 gnd rswk-swf Afrika (DE-588)4000695-5 g Grundeigentum (DE-588)4072130-9 s Landnahme (DE-588)4166614-8 s 1\p DE-604 Evers, Sandra (DE-588)1089310455 edt Seagle, Caroline edt Krijtenburg, Froukje edt Afrika-Studiecentrum series 29 (DE-604)BV041883720 29 http://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&db=nlabk&AN=585965 Aggregator Volltext 1\p cgwrk 20201028 DE-101 https://d-nb.info/provenance/plan#cgwrk |
