"This book is an important palliative to the recent ontological turn in environmental anthropology. It throws into sharp relief issues of power, inequality, and the commodification of nature that go beyond the intimacies of human-nature entanglement. Crafting a more-than-human perspective grounded in the dynamics of land capitalization and justice allows for a more robust approach to scholarship in this academic subfield and region...Furthermore, the volume is an outcome of collaborative scholarship engaged deeply in local and regional work."

"A highly readable, insightful volume on land politics across the Mekong region today. Featuring detailed case studies, and grounded in a solid political ecological perspective, it is an essential read for scholars across the social sciences interested in the region. Additionally, it is extremely insightful for scholars who are thinking about land governance from multiple scales and comparatively across regions."
