ຊື່ Struggling against excuses: winning back land in Cambodia
ລາຍລະອຽດ

This paper focuses on one community in Cambodia that won back land from a large land deal by grabbing onto the rupture in property relations initiated by a one-year land titling campaign. The study documents the struggle between competing legibility and illegibility projects which the author examines through two moments, one of the state choosing to see its population and their relations to territory, and another in which the state’s excuses for not recognizing smallholders’ claims began to falter. By centering the role of excuses, the author shows how state authority and property relations ruptured around the campaign and how traces of the campaign enabled citizens to claim the right to have rights.
