  • This study explores the intersection between postcolonialism and new practices of accumulation, focusing on the phenomenon of land grabbing. In the context of postcolonial regions, especially in Latin America, land acquisitions by global actors have sparked numerous resistance movements. These practices are analyzed within the framework of decolonial studies, emphasizing how the continuity of colonial structures persists in contemporary capitalism. The work delves into how land grabbing reveals the global dynamics of capitalist expansion and extraction, where race, indigenous knowledge, and alternative ontologies play a significant role. By examining historical and modern discourses, the paper critiques the neoliberal narrative of development that presents land acquisitions as opportunities for economic growth, exposing the underlying mechanisms of exploitation and dispossession.
