  • Land Power explores the historical and ongoing relationship between land ownership and power, examining how land allocation policies have shaped societal structures, economic inequalities, and environmental consequences across various regions and time periods. The author analyzes different landholding systems—including indigenous, feudal, and modern—and their impacts on issues such as racial hierarchy, gender inequality, and environmental degradation. Case studies from numerous countries illustrate the long-term effects of land reallocation, highlighting both successes and failures of various reform approaches. The text also considers the role of land in national development and the ongoing efforts to address historical injustices and environmental damage. Finally, the book examines contemporary challenges related to land pressure, climate change, and the pursuit of environmental conservation.
