contents Land grabbing of farmland: the food security of the world in the hands of a few Francisco Javier Serrano-Bosquet Claudia Jaqueline Acebo-Gutiérrez Estudios Ambientales migration Agriculture development food security land grabbing The practice of “land grabbing”, or the large-scale hoarding of fertile lands in developing countries by rich countries, transnational corporations and individuals, in order to grow food beyond their borders, is today reaching historically unparalleled figures. Although the dominant discourse vindicates this process as an opportunity for the countries that are recipients of these practices, numerous voices warn about the role played by this phenomenon in the (re-) emergence and development of global and local problems. The objective of this work is to demystify the theoretical, political and historical proposal endorsed and promoted by international organizations such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank in the light of conflicts over the use and ownership of land. Together, food security, impacts on small and medium-sized local farmers and migration are generating the current model of international land grabbing. 2019 artículo científico 1909-2474 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=321767977015 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3217/321767977015/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3217/321767977015/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3217/321767977015/321767977015.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/3217/321767977015/movil https://doi.org/10.17151/luaz.2019.49.11 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3217 Revista Luna Azul application/pdf Universidad de Caldas Revista Luna Azul (Colombia) Num.49
