Climate-related Planned Relocation as Domicide
This study critically examines how climate-related planned relocation constitutes domicide -the destruction of home extending beyond the physical or material sense. We develop a conceptual framework to understand how domicide unfolds gradually through disruptions to material-economic, socio-communal, ecological-geographic, and identity-cultural dimensions, driven by institutional logics prioritising physical safety and economic development while …
Uncovering the drivers of climate gentrification in the Global South
Climate gentrification is an emerging phenomenon that has received increasing attention in the literature. We find two key shortfalls in our review of its burgeoning scholarship: a predominance of research in cities of the Global North that overlook the diverse ways climate gentrification is playing out in the Global South; and over attendance to the environmental and market drivers of displacement, thus obscuring other factors that contribute to…
The modalities of power driving climate-related resettlement
Building resilience or reinforcing vulnerability? The enduring allure of hard infrastructure as adaptation
This paper examines a climate buffer infrastructural paradox: that, despite an expansive archive documenting the limits of hard structural solutions, they retain their allure as a popular technical solution to protect against climatic hazards. The Leyte Tide Embankment Project (LTEP) in the Philippines, also known as "The Great Wall of Leyte", is one of dozens of climate buffer megaprojects proliferating globally that promise to protect coastal z…
Unpacking water governance dynamics and its implications for household water security in post-disaster resettlement communities in the Philippines
Water security is important globally for sustaining households, communities, and the environment. However, most studies have focused on water availability and accessibility, whereas research examining the role of power and politics in shaping water insecurity remains marginal. This study contributes to this research gap by unpacking the overlapping drivers and politics in water governance dynamics that co-produce the water insecurity of Typhoon H…
Why Context, Holism, and Scale Matter in Super Typhoon Yolanda Research
Philippine Studies: Historical and Ethnographic Viewpoints is an internationally refereed journal that publishes scholarly articles and other materials on the history of the Philippines and its peoples, both in the homeland and overseas. It believes the past is illuminated by historians as well as scholars from other disciplines; at the same time, it prefers ethnographic approaches to the history of the present. It welcomes works that are theoret…
From absences to emergences
The differential impacts of climate change have highlighted the need to implement fit-for-purpose interventions that are reflective of the needs of vulnerable communities. However, adaptation projects tend to favour technocratic, market-driven, and Eurocentric approaches that inadvertently disregard the place-based and contextual adaptation strategies of many communities in the Global South. The paper aims to decolonise climate change adaptation …
Potentials and pitfalls of social capital ties to climate change adaptation
Climate change’s impacts vary across different geographical regions and societies, thus, underpinning the value of context-specific adaptation strategies grounded in local knowledge, social cohesion and community dynamics. This paper explores the potentials and pitfalls of social capital to climate change adaptation – an underexplored area of inquiry on climate change and Indigenous development literature. A qualitative case study design was used…
Two decades of rice research in Indonesia and the Philippines
While rice studies are abundant, they usually focus on macro-level rice production and yield data, genetic diversity, cultivar varieties, and agrotechnological innovations. Moreover, many of these studies are either region-wide or concentrated on countries in the Global North. Collecting, synthesizing, and analyzing the different themes and topic areas in rice research since the beginning of the 21st century, especially in the Global South, remai…
