Description: "The report highlights the long history of commodification of land and labour in Ghana, linked initially to speculative activities and more recently to the activities of international capital, agribusiness, international agricultural centres, and agencies of the state. It makes the case for a new land, agrarian and natural resource regime that prioritises domestic economic needs to provide security of livelihood to the generality of the people."--BOOK JACKET.
