In this mini-conference, we are seeking to have a critical debate about land struggles over sovereignty, resources and means of survival. We are inviting folks to submit abstracts (no more than 1000 words) which raise land as the main object of analysis of power in a ‘post-globalisation order’. By seeking to re-centre the Land Question in contemporary socio and political economic debate and scholarship, we aim to illuminate how land and the power it confers shape institutions, create and mediate conflicts, and determine possibilities for both domination and resistance in an era marked by ecological crisis and geopolitical realignment. We are particularly interested in hearing about research which speaks to one of our key themes: 1. Land conflicts and new imperialisms 2. Extractivism and resource conflicts 3. Digital infrastructure and the material internet 4. Institutions and power in the regulation of land 5. Consequences of urban and rural land concentration 6. Land rent and heterodox economics
Dear Colleagues,
On behalf my co-organisers, I am writing to invite abstract submissions for the ‘Re-centring land conflicts in the post-globalisation order’ mini-conference (MC11) as part of the SASE 2026 Conference in Bordeaux (1-3 July).

Do you have ideas on a project about the politics of one of the great challenges of our time - achieving climate resilience? What can we learn from Greece, and what can Greece learn from the world when it comes to a resilient green transition?
