Learning the city through urban agriculture
Learning the city refers to collective processes through which urban inhabitants experience, negotiate, and shape urban contexts. In the past decade, urban scholarship has emphasised the significance of learning the city as a political act. However, the full diversity of potentials of learning the city through urban agriculture remains underexamined. Drawing on fieldwork with an urban permaculture collective in Seville, Spain, this article examin…
Acción colectiva para la transición agroecológica en el altiplano Boliviano
Para facilitar una transición de la agricultura convencional, es imperativo fortalecer los vínculos entre la política y la agroecología. La agroecología no debe entenderse sólo como el resultado de una serie de propiedades físicas y biológicas porque también refleja relaciones socioculturales de poder. Por lo que para promover una transición agroecológica se requiere de la acción individual y colectiva, que se da cuando los actores articulación u…
Local governance networks as public authority
Drawing upon ‘governance diaries,’ a method which used repeated interviews with a set of households and intermediaries in three countries—Mozambique, Myanmar and Pakistan—to understand how marginalised groups meet their daily governance needs, we argue that local governance networks constitute a form of public authority. The networks we examine encompass a range of local actors (state and non‐state), who help develop and enforce rules and ensure …
Acción colectiva para la transición agroecológica en el Altiplano boliviano
Para facilitar una transición de la agricultura industrial es imperativo fortalecer los vínculos entre la política y la agroecología. Esta última no debe entenderse solo como el resultado de una serie de propiedades físicas y biológicas, ya que también refleja relaciones socioculturales de poder. Por lo tanto, para promover una transición agroecológica se requiere de la acción individual y colectiva, la cual se da cuando los actores se articulan …
Citizen action for accountability in challenging contexts
Researching governance in difficult times and places
Everyday governance in areas of contested power
Understanding accountability in practice
International aid actions for accountability
Measuring agroecology
Over the last few years, a small but increasing number of researchers and organizations has been involved in tracking funding flows to agroecology, analyzing development assistance, climate finance, and research funds for their contribution to an agroecological transformation of food systems, including as part of the efforts to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. This has led to the emergence of a community of practice (CoP) meeting and ex…
Agroecology
Agroecology is an alternative paradigm for agriculture and food systems that is simultaneously: (a) the application of ecological principles to food and farming systems that emerge from specific socioecological and cultural contexts in place-based territories; and (b) a social and political process that centers the knowledge and agency of Indigenous peoples and peasants in determining agri-food system policy and practice. Historically, agroecolog…
Governance for Building Back Better
The pandemic is in many ways a crisis of governance. It has created a set of unique challenges that underscore the need for governments to collect revenue more efficiently and equitably; and to spend it more inclusively, transparently, and accountably, especially on the most vulnerable and marginalised populations. In this article, we suggest a set of governance interventions to help create conditions for building effective and inclusive institut…
From Transition to Domains of Transformation
The acceleration of ecological crises has driven a growing body of thinking on sustainability transitions. Agroecology is being promoted as an approach that can address multiple crises in the food system while addressing climate change and contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals. Beyond the more technical definition as, “the ecology of food systems”, agroecology has a fundamentally political dimension. It is based on an aspiration towar…
Introduction to the symposium on critical adult education in food movements
People, power, change
This article is situated within nascent debates on the role of academics within food sovereignty movements. Drawing on insights from a collective autoethnography, we report on our experiences conducting three food sovereignty research projects in different contexts and at different scales. We suggest that that the principles and practices of food sovereignty translate into a food sovereignty research praxis. This consists of three pillars focusin…
Transformative agroecology learning in Europe
Agroecology has been proposed as a key building block for food sovereignty. This article examines the meaning, practices and potentials of ‘transformative agroecology learning’ as a collective strategy for food system transformation. Our study is based on our qualitative and action research with the European Coordination of Via Campesina to develop the European Agroecology Knowledge Exchange Network (EAKEN). This network is linked to the global n…

Transformative research as knowledge mobilization
Mainstream knowledge production and communication in the academy generally reflect the tenets of positivist research and predominantly embody hierarchical processes of knowledge transfer. In contrast, a transformative research paradigm is rooted in knowledge mobilization processes involving close collaboration between researchers and community actors as co-enquirers as a part of a broader agenda for progressive social change. They also involve st…

How times change
In this article we explore the level of job satisfaction and the sources of job dissatisfaction for 210 secondary school teachers in southwest England and compare our results with the results from a similar study published in 1962. Using anonymous questionnaires, we asked 210 secondary teachers in southwest England (63% female) to rate their level of job satisfaction and to rate 16 sources of job dissatisfaction that we adapted from the study. Te…

Possible case of hyperparathyroidism in a roman period skeleton from the Dakhleh Oasis, Egypt, diagnosed using bone histomorphometry
A histomorphometric study of thin femoral head sections of a skeletal sample from the Dakhleh Oasis, Egypt, dated from circa 36 B.C. to 400 A.D., identified an adult female (Dk31‐A1) in her mid‐50s with a high percentage resorption surface with tunneling resorption as is typically found in hyperparathyroidism. Five static histomorphometric bone parameters were measured with the following results for this individual: 1) mean wall thickness, 41.94 …
