Notes: aGibbon (1995). bPallotti (2008) and Engström, 2018 cThis included neo-liberal citizenship model and cuts in social welfare (Caplan, 2007; Pallotti 2008). dPrivate sector heavily involved in large-scale investments in agriculture (Cooksey, 2012; Sikora et al., 2017; Engström, 2018). eEngström, (2018). fJacob Pedersen Maganga and Kweka (2016). These institutional changes are not neo-liberal but may rather indicate a turning of the tide. That is, however, not yet certain and outside the scope of this paper. gGibbon (1995). hChristen et al., (2005). iPallotti (2008). The strategy involves social inclusion, but still as a “natural” result of economic growth. jPallotti (2008). kPallotti (2008). lGreen, 2015 and Engström, (2018)
