El presente trabajo busca hacer una lectura estructural de algunas de las dinámicas agrarias y rurales de las últimas décadas en Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador y Nicaragua. Se busca mostrar varias dimensiones que interactúan en el medio rural, como son la estructura agraria, el uso del suelo, el incremento de la superficie en fincas gracias a la ampliación de la frontera agrícola, y la evolución de la población tanto nacional como sobre todo en el ambiente rural.
‘Land grabbing’: is conservation part of the problem or the solution?
Large-scale land acquisitions are increasing in pace and scale, in particular across parts of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Weak governance and poor land use planning mean that commercial ‘land grabs’ often damage biodiversity as well as dispossessing people from customary rights and livelihoods. Land can also be ‘grabbed’ for ‘green’ purposes, triggering conflicts that undermine potential synergies. Expanded state protected areas, land for carbon offset markets and REDD, and for private conservation projects all potentially conflict with community rights.
