This article explores the complexities of agency in contemporary territory-based mobilisations in the countryside by focusing on water struggles in Turkey. Using a historical-spatial approach, it combines agrarian political economy analysis with human-nature interactions. Through an analysis of cash crop production and urban-rural interactions, this contribution argues that capitalist agrarian transformation in Turkey led to the emergence of an ‘urban middle class with peasant characteristics’, with a strong capacity for mobilisation and alliance-building. It also argues that this group enabled abstraction, place-framing and aestheticised resistance, common elements we observe in contemporary territorial mobilisations.

ABSTRACTThis research conducted between June 2016 and April 2018 employs ethnographic research, archival sources, and observations to reveal the emergence of the Plantationocene in Mozambique's Lugela district. It explores how historical exploitation and governance of land and people by colonial companies, specifically Société du Madal, have influenced the current plantation regime. By focusing on a MHL rubber plantation in the postcolonial era, the article exposes how the plantation revitalizes colonial methods of racist capital accumulation. The study highlights the detrimental effects of large-scale plantations on rural communities, including marginalization, dispossession, displacement, and the objectification of people and landscapes as mere commodities for capital accumulation. Additionally, it emphasizes how these projects impose new labour relations, racialized identities, and geographies, perpetuating the remnants of colonialism while endorsing a neoliberal framework that further deepens existing inequalities.KEYWORDS: Plantationocenedispossessionstea plantationsrubber plantationsMozambiquecolonialityextractivismmodernisation AcknowledgementsThis research results from my PhD studies which were funded by the National Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences (NIHSS) and Council for the Development of Social Sciences Research in Africa (CODESRIA).

A defining character of drugs-affected frontier regions is their dynamic instability and their boom-and-bust cycles. These are violent and disturbed landscapes, in which illicit drug economies play a transformative role. But not all frontiers are the same, and nor are the ‘illicit peasantries’ who inhabit the ‘narco-frontier’. In this article we explore the complex dialectical relations between frontiers, drug economies, illicit peasantries and peasant politics. In doing so we develop a new comparative framework, that provides a heuristic for studying the commonalities and differences across narco-frontiers and the mechanisms behind these differences.

Climate security, albeit highly contested, is moving beyond the discursive realm into policies and practices that implicate the control of land, water and forests. Through a systematic literature review this paper offers a typology of climate security practices. It observes a shift towards human security framing, offering potential for agrarian struggles. However, risks remain: the depoliticisation of scarcity, control-seeking over natural resources, a push for neoliberal approaches, a dominant focus on violent conflict, and knowledge politics. Alternative approaches are suggested, foregrounding place-specific alliances that address the politics of conflict and embrace plurality of knowledges, contributing to (agrarian) climate justice.

ABSTRACTThis article explores the role of business elites in the conversion of rural landscapes into urban real estate in El Salvador. By analyzing elites’ imaginaries of development and strategies of dispossession, it examines the underlying rationalities that have driven rural-to-urban transformations since the postwar process of deagrarianization in the 1990s. I argue that elites have shifted their relationship with land from one centered international commodity markets to one focused on the establishment of rent-extractive property relations. In the context of financialization, this shift shapes much of the new dynamics on land and water grabbing in rural environments.KEYWORDS: Real estate; elites; urbanization; global land grabs; financialization; El Salvador AcknowledgementsI would like to express my appreciation to the anonymous reviewers for all their comments and suggestions. I would also like to thank all the people in El Salvador who made this research project possible.

摘要本文探讨了商业精英在萨尔瓦多乡村景观转化为城市房地产中的作用。通过分析精英阶层对发展的想象和剥夺策略，本书考察了自20世纪90年代战后非土地化进程以来推动农村向城市转型的潜在理性。我认为，精英们已经将他们与土地的关系从一个以国际商品市场为中心的关系转变为一个以建立租金-采掘财产关系为重点的关系。在金融化的背景下，这种转变在很大程度上塑造了农村地区抢夺土地和水资源的新动态。关键词:房地产;精英;城市化;全球土地掠夺;金融化;我想对匿名审稿人的所有评论和建议表示感谢。我还要感谢所有使这个研究项目成为可能的萨尔瓦多人。还要感谢我在北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校的博士委员会成员，以及我在JPS Writeshop 2022上的所有同行和导师，他们为本文做出了贡献，并提供了他们的评论。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1第747号法令(1991年)、第14号法令(1995年)和第719号法令(1996年)都改变了1980年代土地改革以前制定的限制，以防止土地再分配的逆转埃尔·埃斯皮诺的案件是一个著名的案件，因为它与Dueñas家族有关，该家族是萨尔瓦多最古老的精英家族之一。自土改初期以来，家族采取了一系列的法律策略来收回对地产的控制权。最后，他们设法收回了一部分，剩下的部分由合作社的行政委员会逐渐卖给了各种房地产开发商。参见Labrador (Citation2014)这是一位参与该项目的房地产高管透露的。参见Audiovisuales UCA。“FIHIDRO。Agua segura¿para quisamin ?2010年4月17日。https://youtu.be/LrzOAaY7wwA4国家注册中心。“register de otros documents”。5 .

This article studies avocado theft in southern Turkey’s peasant communities, where a significant avocado market formed between 2010 and 2020. In the context of the country’s neoliberalized agricultural regime, avocado as a ‘high-value food’ became a lucrative alternative for farmers struggling with decreasing profits from traditional crops. This new market economically benefited larger farmers, while smallholders, hampered by market liberalization policies of the preceding decade, were left behind. This article employs two well-known concepts, ‘moral economy’ and ‘social banditry’, to unpack harvest theft as a community-level crisis in southern Turkey.

Karl Polanyi’s concept of the ‘double movement’ refers to a reciprocal dialectic between market forces and social protections for citizens. It concerns ongoing struggle against individualization of people’s lives under capitalist marketization – which continues today. While Polanyi focused on protective responses to deepening commodification of land, labor, and money across the 1840s–1940s century, the ‘double movement’ remains in force in the contemporary neo-illiberal era, with notable significance for agrarian transformations. This essay reviews adaptations by agrarian counter-movements, NGOs, and analysts to new pressures on producers, farmworkers, Indigenous peoples, and landscapes across the world, and various associated interpretations and analyses.
