Journeys in the New Colonialism
This insightful book delves into the complex and often controversial phenomenon of large-scale land acquisitions, commonly referred to as "land grabbing."

Through a series of compelling case studies and on-the-ground reporting, the narrative sheds light on the socio-economic and environmental impacts of these transactions, highlighting the power dynamics and ethical considerations involved. The book serves as a critical examination of globalization, food security, and the future of agriculture in a rapidly changing world.
