This book explores the relationship between gender and land, the gendered implications of globalisation on social relations and resource control, and the workings of global capital. Its central focus is examination of globalisation and how the associated changes in land use and tenure affect rural women. A parallel current is people’s resistance to global forces, frequently demonstrated through insistence on the uniqueness of their livelihoods. The book tackles globalisation as an economic process with material consequences for land tenure systems, people’s livelihoods and gender relations, anchored by case studies in Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Cameroon, Ghana and Vietnam.
