Additional value of the chosen case studies is that they are not based in the capital and largest city, which gives to the reader an insight into how the themes and strategies which are often connected to the urban centers connected to the global cities unfold in specific places. The final version of the paper has integrated more of the ethnographic and research materials, enabling the nuance of the research to come to the fore.<\/p>\n The article examines the appropriation of resources by Capital and the State and the consecutive displacement of social groups that stand as an obstacle or a counter example to such processes of capital accumulation. Its main contribution is that it examines in parallel two case studies that are usually separated in research: social groups related to urban activism and social groups that still survive with traditional means of subsistence such as fishermen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Signals are an important part of the JoPP peer review process.
