概要

This paper analyses innovative arrangements aimed at curbing land use - conceptualized as commodity-centric landscape governance (CCLG) - with an in-depth case study of the Cerrado Working Group, a multistakeholder initiative led by civil society and the soy agribusiness to address land use change in that savanna landscape in Brazil. The paper examines how that initiative has come about, its agenda, as well as usually underexposed political dimensions using agenda-setting theory.
