TRAPAGA DELFIN, Yolanda. The end of the agricultural frontier and land grab in the world. Inv. Econ [online]. 2012, vol.71, n.279, pp.71-92. ISSN 0185-1667.
At the beginning of the new century we are confronted to the need of rethinking how unsustainable it is an economic system that pretends to grow indefinitely on a finite basis of natural resources. In the meantime we observe a lag in the offer of certain commodities and of some renewable and nonrenewable natural resources, as well of a rising in the prices. At the same time, some governments and private capital are concentrating the available resources, mainly in non-developed nations. In the paper we will explore this trend focusing on agricultural land.
