Digging into deep reality: Conditioning the potential of care in human-soil relations
Emerging literature on humans' ethical relations with soils is theoretically well-situated to describe human-soil relations, yet its flat ontological presuppositions are analytically disadvantaged in explaining their conditioning. By exploring farmers' soil management in Jæren and Østfold, Norway, this article seeks to enrich the growing literature in arguing that it is necessary to analytically explain how soil care is structurally conditioned (…
Unearthing care: Rooting alternative agricultural practices in Norway and Costa Rica
This article contributes to the growing literature on human-soil relations by exploring how care for agricultural soils unfolds among farmers who engage with alternative agricultural practices across different productions and sites in Norway and Costa Rica. These farmers approach soil as a living being and seek to approach care with macro- and microorganisms in response to soil challenges and economic instabilities. The article follows recent lit…
Becoming 'Wild' at the Intersection of Knowledges: Coffee Rust Crisis in Costa Rica
This article explores the relationship between visualism, practice and knowledge through the specific case of the 2012-2013 coffee rust-epidemic and its repercussions among small-scale coffee farmers in Turrialba, Costa Rica. The article shows how the rust-epidemic marked an alteration not only in farmers and agronomists' perceptions of roya, but also in farming practices. The argument of the article is twofold: First, that the perceptual shift o…
Bringing the state back in: Corporate social responsibility and the paradoxes of Norwegian state capitalism in the international energy sector
This theme section brings the state back into anthropological studies of corporate social responsibility through the lens of Norwegian energy corporations working abroad. These transnational corporations (TNCs) are expected by the government to act responsibly when "going global." Yet, we have observed that abroad, Norwegian corporations backed by state capital largely operate like any other TNCs. We argue that the driver for the adaptation to gl…
Standardizing responsibility through the stakeholder figure: Norwegian hydropower in Turkey
Through a multi-sited study of the Norwegian state-owned renewable energy corporation Statkraft, this article explores how the increasing embedding of corporate social responsibility in international guidelines impacts the way responsibility is handled when large energy corporations operate overseas. Focusing on one of Statkraft's projects in Turkey, we detail how standards are used to guide both operations in the field and external reporting, in…
