'The topic of this report is most commonly referred to as
“land grabbing”. It has attracted global attention
since 2008, with a series of highly publicised transnational
agreements involving the lease of land areas of unprecedented size.
Since then, it has become clear that this phenomenon is really more
diverse, of a larger scale, and perhaps less novel that it had
first appeared. While the most publicised deals have been
transnational in nature and focused on food and biofuels
production, they are hard to separate analytically from wider
trends of increasing commercial pressures on land characterised by
a more diverse range of actors, scales, and economic drivers. They
are part of longer-term historical processes of economic and social
transformation. Yet with the intensification of commercial
pressures on land since the food price crisis of 2008, these
processes have entered a new phase. It is in this sense that this
report speaks of a new “land rush”.'
