Land Tenure, Gender and Globalisation
Abstract
This document presents a book on Land Tenure, Gender and Globalisation. This book is a contribution to the literature on community and gendered experiences of globalisation. Anchored by four case studies located in the Amazon forests of Brazil, Bolivia, Peru (Porro), Cameroon (Endeley), Ghana (Awumbila and Tsikata) and Vietnam (Scott, Bélanger, Nguyen and Khuat), it tackles globalisation as an economic process with material consequences for land tenure systems, people’s livelihoods, and gender relations. Differences in orientation, approach, and position on some of the key issues of globalisation notwithstanding, the case studies together provide theoretical and empirical insights into some of the debates among academics, policy makers and activists.
