The Cropland Expansionary Dynamics of Agricultural Production in Latin America: A Panel Study of Fourteen Countries, 1970-2016
In this study, we employ a critical political economy framework for an empirical analysis of environmental withdrawals from agricultural production in Latin America. Namely, we focus on the role of export-orientation and trade direction of food as drivers of cropland footprint expansion in (semi-)periphery countries. Following the literature on the treadmill of production, ecological unequal exchange, and extractivism, we reason that (semi-)perip…
Modernization, Political Economy, and Limits to Blue Growth: A Cross-National, Panel Regression Study (1975-2016)
Seafood production and trade have expanded dramatically over the last 40 years and comprise one of the fastest growing, and most environmentally impactful, sub-sectors of the global food system. While richer nations have increased their seafood consumption and displaced their environmental load, the marine environmental impact of fishery production has largely shifted to the waters of less-affluent nations. To sustain fishing economies and seafoo…
Capitalism and Sustainability: An Exploratory Content Analysis of Frameworks in Environmental Political Economy
A critical divide within environmental sociology concerns the relationship between capitalism and the environment. Risk society and ecological modernization scholars advance a concept of reflexive political economy, arguing that capitalism will transition from a dirty, industrial stage to a green, eco-friendly stage. In contrast, critical political economy scholars suggest that the core imperatives of capitalist accumulation are fundamentally uns…
Global labor value chains, commodification, and the socioecological structure of severe exploitation. A case study of the Thai seafood sector
We utilize perspectives in environmental sociology and politicaleconomy to examine relationships between human exploitationand ecological degradation. Specifically, we apply global laborvalue chains and the tragedy of the commodity to analyze severelabor exploitation in Thai capturefisheries. Our analysis suggeststhat severe labor exploitation has played a significant role inlowering the market value of the Thai seafood sector as anadaptation to …
Mining the Sea
Using primary and secondary historical data, descriptive time-series data, and site observations, this study unpacks the developmental history of one of the United States' oldest, largest, and still working fisheries. This study uses narrative analysis to explore how processes of commodification and the institutional workings of capitalist food regimes drove specific developmental outcomes. Internal comparison across periods enables an analysis o…
Examining the effect of economic development, region, and time period on the fisheries footprints of nations (1961–2010)
Anthropogenic activities are impacting marine systems, and the future sustainability of many global fisheries are in serious question. Our analysis draws on prior research in environmental sociology and food systems to better understand the association between economic development and the ecological footprint of fisheries. We provide a series of models to make comparisons across all nations, distinguishing between less-affluent nations and afflue…

Sustainability for Whom? An Examination of the Equity Pillar of Sustainability at the Local Policymaking Level
This article examines the question of socioeconomic equity in sustainable cities. Of the three pillars of sustainability, social equity is typically the least researched by scholars and the least addressed by local governments. This gap in the research and policymaking is problematic, particularly, when considering how the environmental challenges of the twenty-first century will disproportionately affect those in lower socioeconomic strata. In o…
