The labor of nature/the nature of labor
This article presents a novel critique of ecosystem service valuation (ESV) by problematizing the labor theory of value (LTV) that is inherent to the liberal economic framework from which it is derived. This discussion reveals that ESV and other approaches to valuing nature are based on two faulty and related elements: 1) a Cartesian dualism that posits humans and nature as distinct, which in turn leads to 2) the incomplete application of its own…
Landscape multifunctionality, agroecology, and smallholders
After the fall of the USSR, Cuba was plunged into an economic crisis with devastating effects on the agricultural system. With few options, the government restructured its agricultural system from an industrial model to a model based on smallholders and agroecology. After several decades, the results of this transition have been far reaching for both landscapes and livelihoods. This research uses mixed-methods, including remote sensing, interview…
Moving towards an anti-colonial definition for regenerative agriculture
Smallholder farming for sustainable development
The persistence of the peasantry challenges conceptualizations of smallholders on both the left and the right. It also highlights the vital role that smallholders play in socio-ecosystems. This paper uses the Cuban agroecological transition to re-think the role that smallholders play in development discourse and practice. By analyzing the public policies that Cuba enacted after the Special Period, this article derives several public policy lesson…
New opportunities, new challenges
Cuba’s transition to agroecology is perhaps as widely known as it is misunderstood. In response to the economic crisis of the early 1990s, the Cuban agricultural sector largely departed from the industrial model of food production that it had previously pursued. The subsequent transition towards an agroecological model has been a dynamic and uneven process, elevating Cuba on the world stage as a global leader in sustainable agriculture while at t…
Emergent livelihoods
Alternative to What? Agroecology, Food Sovereignty, and Cuba's Agricultural Revolution
In Cuba, the transition from industrial agriculture towards agroecology since the Special Period of the early 1990s has provided both an incredible example for alternative, sustainable food systems elsewhere as well as its own suite of challenges and struggles. This paper reviews recent literature on the Cuban agroecological transition, especially as this work situates Cuban agroecology in practice alongside the increasingly popular political fra…
Micropolitics in collective learning spaces for adaptive decision making
Recent advances on power, politics, and pathways in climate change adaptation aim to re-frame decision-making processes from development-as-usual to openings for transformational adaptation. This paper offers empirical insights regarding decision-making politics in the context of collective learning through participatory scenario building and flexible flood management and planning in the Eastern Brahmaputra Basin of Assam, India. By foregrounding…

Gender Justice and Rights in Climate Change Adaptation
We present three rights-based approaches to research and policies on gender justice and equity in the context of climate change adaptation. After a short introduction, we describe the dominant discourse that frames climate change and provide an overview of the literature that has depicted women both as vulnerable victims of climatic change and as active agents in adaptive responses. Discussion follows on the shift from gendered impacts to gendere…
