“Uncertainty, anxiety, stressors… everything is amplified”
Narratives of invasion and intimacy
Tamarix spp., also known as salt cedar or tamarisk, has garnered a reputation in the United States as an invasive plant, with widespread policy and research advocating for its eradication in the Chihuahuan Desert region that spans the United States and the Mexico border. Yet, south of the border in Mexico, tamarisk is often integrated into daily life on more friendly terms. This study applies a political ecology lens to government and conservatio…
Towards an incoherent convergence science
Here, we argue for a critical approach to convergence science: one that develops collaborative problem-solving for pressing contemporary crises. We ask for researchers to encounter spaces where diverse epistemological and ontological perspectives can build solutions based on on-the-ground practices and existing knowledge. This approach contrasts with status quo crisis responses, which are imbricated with dominant forms of capitalism, and whose so…
Convergence, transdisciplinarity, and team science
The challenges facing the Intermountain West are characterized by extreme complexity and enormous consequences. They include climate change and associated ecological effects, such as catastrophic wildfire and drought. They are also inextricably linked to social inequities, including freshwater availability, land conversion, and access to basic human needs such as quality food, affordable energy, and access to healthcare. A meaningful response to …
Understanding the double burden
This article examines the findings of a study of basic needs (in)security among students at a large, minority-serving university in the American Southwest. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study measures the prevalence of and examines the demographic patterns in both food and housing insecurity, as well as their co-occurrence, which we call the double burden. Using multinomial logistic regression analysis, this study finds a significant co-oc…

A view from the top
A rise in large-scale land acquisitions has been documented in the popular media and scholarly literature, but with little attention to elite actors and their motivations. In this introduction to the special issue, we expand upon commonly held understandings of the drivers of global land acquisitions to explore the complex, dynamic and sometimes contradictory motivations of elites directly and indirectly involved in land deals. Focusing on the re…
The 'state' of food sovereignty in Latin America
The concept of food sovereignty has been enshrined in the constitutions of a number of countries around the world without any clear consensus around what state-sponsored 'food sovereignty' might entail. At the forefront of this movement are the countries of the so-called 'pink tide' of Latin America - chiefly Venezuela, Ecuador and Bolivia. This paper examines how state commitments to food sovereignty have been put into practice in these three co…
Negotiating hybridity in highland Bolivia
Scholars often highlight the capacity for cooperation and reciprocity as one of the most outstanding features of Andean peasants, but also raise concerns that these traditional strategies necessarily wither and fade as Andean people and places are increasingly incorporated into capitalist markets and processes. This study examines how non-market cooperative and reciprocal economic practices are affected as rural Bolivians expand production to mee…
