Recenzje

"Grajales work is impressive and convincing... the book shows elegantly the political economy of both the state and the market as mutually co- and re-producing of the inequality regime, during and post-conflict." - Line Jespersgaard Jakobsen, Review of Agricultural, Food and Environmental Studies
