From paper institutions to bureaucratic autonomy: Institutional change as a resource curse remedy
Building resilience to El Niño-related drought: Experiences in early warning and early action from Nicaragua and Ethiopia
Forecast-based drought early warning/early action has been hampered by both inadequate decision-making frameworks and a lack of appropriate funding mechanisms. Rural communities in Nicaragua and Ethiopia that have participated in resilience-building interventions of varying durations demonstrate the value of community-based actions informed by early warning, forecasts and drought management advice, both before and during the agricultural season. …

Food crisis, small-scale farmers, and markets in the Andes
In the Andean region, national policy responses to the 2007–08 food-price crisis emphasised reducing pressures on consumers, and particularly on urban populations. In Bolivia, the prices of all domestic and imported food tubers and grains rose dramatically in major markets. Unexpectedly, evidence from focus groups and field research demonstrates that even in remote regions where farmers trade infrequently, smallholder farm families experienced fo…
Climate Change in the High Andes: Implications and Adaptation Strategies for Small-scale Farmers
A scholarly article by authors Carlos Perez, Claire Nicklin, and Olivier Dangles, Steven Vanek, Stephen Sherwood, Stephan Halloy, Karen A. Garrett, Gregory Forbes published in The International Journal of Environmental, Cultural, Economic, and Social Sustainability: Annual Review
The first gold coins struck in Brazil: Myth or reality
Besieged in Pernambuco by the Portuguese, the Dutch issued in 1645 and 1646, to pay their soldiers, the first coin inscribed “BRASIL”. Named obsidional, it is said to have been fabricated by melting either African gold or gold tableware. It is only in 1694 that the Brazilian itinerant mint was created in Bahia, and successively closed and transferred to Rio de Janeiro in 1698, to Pernambuco in 1700, and back to Rio de Janeiro in 1702. This itiner…
Evidencias de cambio climático en Colombia: Tendencias y cambios de fase y amplitud de los ciclos anual y semianual
Évidences de changement climatique en Colombie : tendances, changements de phase et amplitude des cycles annuels et semi-annuels On a utilisé plusieurs techniques d’analyse pour mettre en évidence des changements climatiques en Colombie. On a montré une nette tendance au réchauffement des températures minimales et moyennes. Les chroniques de points de rosée et de pression de vapeur d’eau indiquent une augmentation de l’humidité de l’atmosphère qu…
Negotiating Beneficiary Involvement in Agricultural Development Projects: Experiences from Care
Since the seventies, project managers have tried to incorporate farmers as active participants in projects. These efforts have been only partially successful. Typically, farmers' resources have been used, farmers have been interviewed, but farmers have not had a decisive role in the planning, implementation and evaluation of the projects. In this paper, I will attempt to address the issue of farmer participation in large-scale development program…
Participatory Research: Implications for Applied Anthropology
To say that in the last fifteen years participatory research has bloomed is almost an understatement. Participatory forms of research are now accepted and well integrated in development practice, particularly in international development. Although this transformation has not been entirely smooth and without controversies, it represents quite a change from being in the fringes of mainstream social action and research only a decade ago. In this art…
