本文旨在通过将目前在不同容器中进行的辩论联系起来，为当前关于“使城市具有包容性、安全性、弹性和可持续性”（可持续发展目标11）的讨论做出贡献：关于“全球土地热潮”和“新城市议程”的辩论。它强调了这些辩论中被忽视的一些重要进程，并提出了一个新的、具有社会包容性的城市化议程，以解决新出现的城市土地掠夺问题。关于全球土地抢购的辩论不仅忽视了大规模土地投资是在快速城市化的背景下进行的这一事实，而且忽视了这些投资往往是由城市需求引发的，而为最近一次联合国住房和可持续城市发展会议准备的关于新城市议程的讨论（人居三）通常偏向于城市，很少关注增加土地跨境投资和农村改造的作用。利用全球南方土地热潮和城市化同时加剧的地区的案例，我们确定了当前辩论中应优先考虑的四个领域，即土地投资对城市内部动态的影响，城市周边动态，以及新城市和新基础设施走廊的出现。
This article aims to contribute to current discussions about “making cities inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable” (SDG 11) by linking debates that are currently taking place in separate containers: debates on the “global land rush” and the “new urban agenda”. It highlights some important processes that are overlooked in these debates and advances a new, socially inclusive urbanization agenda that addresses emerging urban land grabs. The global land rush debate has ignored not only the fact that large-scale land investments take place in a context of rapid urbanization, but also that these investments are often triggered by urban demand, whereas discussions on the new urban agenda prepared for the latest United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III) are typically city-biased, and pay little attention to the role of increasing cross-border investment in land and the transformation of the countryside. Using cases from areas where the global land rush and urbanization are simultaneously intensifying in the global South, we identify four areas that should be prioritized in current debates, namely the impacts of land investments on intra-city dynamics, peri-urban dynamics, and the emergence of new cities and new infrastructure corridors.
