For years, Indigenous communities living within Peru’s most productive oil concession in the Amazon encountered crude oil in their territories and consumed contaminated water and fish, without understanding these phenomena as contamination. This article traces the historical and political process through which contamination became collectively known and conceptualized. This article draws on four years of ethnographic research in accompaniment of …
Navigating receding waters
The Caspian Sea is undergoing profound socio-environmental transformations, including declining water levels, rising temperatures, and biodiversity loss. With the sea turning into land at a rate of several meters per year, the retreating shoreline offers a visible sign of shrinking space for fishers and of the long-standing fluidity of land–water boundaries in the Caspian.

Drawing on fieldwork and COP29 analysis, this article examines contradictions …
