Rural Alaska
Rural" in Alaska does not mean the countryside. It is instead a bureaucratic category that both invokes and undercuts the Alaska Native territory that it has, as a result of political compromise, come to represent. As such, it has been a site of intense turmoil and negotiation since the 1970s. In this essay, we zoom in on a rural location marked by struggles to define and shape the character of the rural; in so doing, we explore the tensions embe…
Counting and Counter-mapping
Over the past decade, the Bristol Bay region of southwest Alaska has been embroiled in a controversy over prospective mineral development in the headwaters of one of the world’s most vibrant salmon fisheries. Following the release of a state land-use plan whose maps appeared to promote large-scale mining in the region, a coalition of actors pursued a counter-mapping project, which drew on existing state data to restore priority to subsistence hun…
Chronicle of a disaster foretold
Like many environmental controversies today, the debate over the proposed Pebble Mine in a salmon-producing region of Alaska centres on the development and contestation of scientific projections of risk. This paper traces the participatory public process surrounding a risk assessment of potential mining impacts to examine how forums that join expert and lay knowledge shape scenarios of future imperilment and influence environmental politics in th…
Enduring Capitalism
In this article, I examine producers' interpretations of economic downturn in an Alaskan commercial fishery to shed light on how workers endure ongoing capitalist vicissitudes and how capitalism itself endures. I focus on Alaska's salmon industry, which has weathered many ups and downs. In the early 2000s, despite strong wild salmon populations, the industry struggled as salmon prices sank to new lows. Drawing on ethnographic research in Bristol …
The matter of market devices
The past few decades have witnessed the reconfiguration of a sweep of industries and sectors to more closely mirror economic models, often interpreted as a hallmark of neoliberal reordering in the growing body of scholarship on the topic. Analyses have emphasized not simply the primacy of market designs in these transformations, but also their performative force: the degree to which they bring into being the phenomena they would seem to merely de…
Self-Reliance beyond Neoliberalism
Across scholarly and popular accounts, self-reliance is often interpreted as either the embodiment of individual entrepreneurialism, as celebrated by neoliberal designs, or the basis for communitarian localism, increasingly imagined as central to environmental and social sustainability. In both cases, self-reliance is framed as an antidote to the failures of larger state institutions or market economies. This paper offers a different framework fo…
Linking Social Anxiety and Adolescent Romantic Relationship Functioning
Alternative Regimes of Transnational Environmental Certification
Transnational certification and ecolabeling programs have become an important new site of environmental governance, as well as an emerging arena for action and conflict in international trade. This paper explores the implementation of Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification in salmon fisheries in the US state of Alaska in the early 2000s, the growing opposition within the industry to MSC certification through periods of reassessment, and t…
In Pursuit of Singular Salmon
New ways of accounting for natural resources, as well as for their producers and consumers, inform efforts by Alaskan salmon fishers to service emerging markets in sustainable goods. For much of the twentieth century, commercial fishers in the rural Bristol Bay region of southwest Alaska harvested salmon as ‘poundage’, an undifferentiated mass destined for transformation into relatively uniform products. In more recent years, Alaska's fishers and…
