Collective Action and Adaptive Socioecological Cycles in Premodern States
Resiliency theorists propose that ecological transformations result when ecosystems collapse and then are reorganized through a process they call adaptive cycles. This article investigates the degree to which the dynamic properties of adaptive cycles reflect, in part, the influence of political factors associated with collective action in state formation. The author evaluates this possibility using historical and archaeological data coded as part…

The Vegetational History of the Oaxaca Valley and Zapotec Plant Knowledge
In Part I of this volume, C.

In Part 2, Ellen Messer provides the results of her ethnobotanical study of the Zapotec residents of Mitla, a town in the southern highlands of the Valley of Oaxaca. Over the course of four years, she studied…

However, the demand …
