Biron bases most of his article on a longer report published recently by Action Aid International that found an "epidemic of 'land-grabbing'" to secure lands from small farmers (for example, see this) all over the world for Western corporations. The article focuses mainly on one program sponsored by the Group of Seven capitalist nations (Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States) which are aided and abetted by the World Bank. They mask these efforts using Orwellian type ethical guidelines--entirely voluntary-- furnished by the UN's Food and Agriculture Organization.
