Abstract:
“Land grabbing”, “food sovereignty”, “territory”, and “territorialisation” are understood differently from one place to another. In this seminar, a group of visiting scholar-activists from Brazil, Colombia and Australia will discuss key ways in which debates are framed in Latin America and Australasia, followed by comparative reflections from Southeast Asia.
