Land Power by Michael Albertus is a compelling exploration of how control over land shapes wealth, inequality, politics, and power across societies. Drawing on history and social science, the book shows how land ownership can influence everything from democratic institutions to conflict and development.
Thought-provoking and wide-ranging, this is a smart read for anyone interested in economics, governance, and the roots of social change. Land Power offers readers a fresh perspective on one of the world’s most important resources and the forces that decide who gets to own it.
