The Collaborative Research Center's project F07 is organizing a workshop about “Protest over Investment Projects in Land and Natural Resources”. The workshop will take place in Tübingen from November 27th to November 29th.
The focus will be on people, that have been evicted from land and dispossessed from their resources. The workshop investigates when, where, why, and how people have protested (or not) to (re)claim what they consider belonging to them. While we also invite scholars on historical cases, the workshop focuses on contemporary land and resource investments (‘land, water, green, etc. grabbing’) and the various transnational actors involved. At the turn of the 21st century, investments by multinational companies and the regulation by some international organizations have often fueled conflicts over land and natural resources. At the same time, other international organizations, transnational advocacy networks, and many (I)NGOs have sought to create awareness and support the dispossessed.
