Abstract
Land grabs in the wake of a disaster are nothing new. However this phenomenon
gains certain particularities and interest when it happens within the current
context of climate change policy initiatives and the global land rush. This nexus
produces a new set of political processes containing new actors and alliances,
legitimizations, and mechanisms of dispossession that set off a different pace for
land grabs. This study explores this nexus which has the potential to swiftly
reboot spatial, institutional and political land arrangements in poor communities
on a large scale, globally.
