Disrupting Territories: Land, Commodification & Conflict in Sudan
Description
This book examines the new dynamics of land-grabbing in Sudan as territorial claims to land and resources continue to be challenged by small-scale and international actors. Through a political economy of the region, and a diverse collection of case studies, the contributors reveal how pastoral livelihoods are increasingly being differentiated, regrouped in new clusters and exposed to new risks.
