Abstract

In Cambodia, land-grabbing has become a crisis of enormous proportions. A great number of people have been robbed of their land in violent circumstances. Across Cambodia, large-scale land disputes in urban and rural areas are widespread, and communities face land tenure insecurity as a result. This chapter chronicles how land grabbing in Cambodia, a serious human security issue, began and why it has continued to grow, and examines three case studies in rural and urban places. Recognizing the primacy of people’s empowerment, the chapter makes a number of recommendations for the state, civil society and international stakeholders.
