Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Contested Airport Land draws attention to the accelerating airport development in the Global South. Empirical studies provide nuanced analysis of socioeconomic, administrative, and political dynamics on the land beyond the airport grounds, such as the project area of greenfield development, the airport city, or land resources reserved for future airport expansion.The authors in this book emphasise why airport construction is a politically sensitive issue in low-income and low-middle-income countries, which serve as the last development frontier of the aviation sector. They argue that observed airport development was rather motivated by the perception of airports as engines for national economic growth, while improving air mobility of national populations was not the main driver. Under dominant national development visions, airport-induced dynamics threatened local livelihoods by triggering economies of anticipation, the reconfiguration of land markets, rapid land use changes, a transition from rural to urban livelihoods, the displacement of communities, the perpetuation of humanwildlife conflicts, or inter-ethnic violence. The authors also highlight colonial path dependencies; legal pluralism in land tenure; the hegemonic relations between builders, investors, and the affected residents; as well as strategies of local protest movements.This book is recommended for readers interested in infrastructure-induced conflicts and environmental injustice.Chapter 1, Chapter 6 and Chapter 8 of this book are freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike (CC-BY-SA) 4.0 license. Empirical studies conducted in this book provide nuanced analysis of social-economic, administrative and political dynamics on the land beyond the airport grounds, such as the project area of Greenfield development, the airport city, or land resources reserved for future airport expansion.
