Reclaiming the Land:

The Resurgence of Rural Movements in Africa, Asia and Latin America
Front Cover
Sam Moyo, Paris Yeros
1 Review
Zed Books, May 6, 2005 - Political Science - 426 pages
Reclaiming the Land brings together original investigations of the new generation of rural social movements in Asia, Latin America and Africa. Dispossessed peasants and unemployed workers of diverse political and ideological orientation have used land occupations and other tactics systematically to confront the neoliberal state. This book provides both national and micro-level case studies of these movements. They seek to identify their social composition, strategies, tactics, and ideologies; to assess their relations with other social actors, including political parties, urban social movements, and international aid agencies and other institutions; and to examine more closely their most common tactic, the land occupation, as well as the responses of governments and landowners.
