Acknowledgments
The present book is rooted in the interdisciplinary research project FLOOR (Financial Assistance, Land Policy, and Global Social Rights, www.floorgroup.de), partly funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft). FLOOR was separated into three sub-projects that were investigated by Ulrike Davy (University of Bielefeld, FLOOR A), Lutz Leisering (University of Bielefeld, FLOOR B), and Benjamin Davy (TU Dortmund University, FLOOR C). Between 2007 and 2015, FLOOR examined human rights, citizenship, and global social policies from different perspectives (e.g., Buschmann 2013; B. Davy et al. 2013; von Gliszczynski 2015). My research was part of sub-project FLOOR C, socio-ecological land policy. FLOOR C focused on the relationship between the poor and the land (B. Davy 2009). The empirical database (States Parties reports and Concluding Observations under the monitoring system of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights) of this book has been kindly provided by Ulrike Davy and her team from the Chair of Constitutional and Administrative Law, International and German Social La
