Abstract

Political reactions ‘from below’ to global land grabbing have been vastly more varied and complex than is usually assumed. This essay introduces a collection of ground-breaking studies that discuss responses that range from various types of organized and everyday resistance to demands for incorporation or for better terms of incorporation into land deals. Initiatives ‘from below’ in response to land deals have involved local and transnational alliances and the use of legal and extra-legal methods, and have brought victories and defeats. The relevance of political reactions to land grabbing is discussed in light of theories of social movements and critical agrarian studies. Future research on reactions ‘from below’ to land grabbing must include greater attention to gender and generational differences in both impacts and political agency.

抗拒、默许还是合并?介绍土地掠夺和“自下而上”的政治反应

“自下而上”对全球土地掠夺的政治反应比通常认为的要多样和复杂得多。本文介绍了一系列开创性的研究，这些研究讨论了各种有组织的和日常的抵抗，以反对合并或更好地纳入土地交易的要求。“自下而上”应对土地交易的举措涉及地方和跨国联盟，并使用法律和法外方法，并带来了胜利和失败。对土地掠夺的政治反应的相关性在社会运动理论和批判农业研究的光讨论。未来关于“自下而上”对土地掠夺的反应的研究必须更多地关注性别和代际差异在影响和政治机构方面的影响。

期刊介绍： A leading journal in the field of rural politics and development, The Journal of Peasant Studies (JPS) provokes and promotes critical thinking about social structures, institutions, actors and processes of change in and in relation to the rural world. It fosters inquiry into how agrarian power relations between classes and other social groups are created, understood, contested and transformed. JPS pays special attention to questions of ‘agency’ of marginalized groups in agrarian societies, particularly their autonomy and capacity to interpret – and change – their conditions.
