Rules, Norms, and Resistance
Women are pivotal in the coffee industry but face systemic challenges that hinder their full participation in the value chain. Drawing on institutional work theory and the Women Empowerment Index in Agriculture (WEAI) framework, this study investigates how coffee value chain actors in Tanzania address these challenges and the extent to which their efforts contribute to women’s empowerment. Research was conducted in four key coffee-growing distric…
Avoiding Access Inequity Due to classification errors in zero-deforestation value chains
European Union’s Regulation 2023/115, commonly known as the European Union Deforestation Regulation (EUDR), promises to be a watershed event in global deforestation governance. A significant example of the hardening of soft law, spurred by major corporations committing to zero-deforestation supply chains, the EUDR is also a substantial wager on the efficacy of satellite-based remote sensing technologies for effective global forest governance. As …
Resilience of what and for whom? Climate change mitigation and adaptation in the global, Ethiopian, and Tanzanian coffee sectors
Climate resilience has different goals across scales, from coffee supply stability to farmer livelihood improvement. • Most climate interventions prioritize coffee supply stability rather than farmer livelihoods or community resilience. • Most interventions help farmers build adaptive, rather than broader transformative capacities. • Farmer adaptation practices address a range of shocks ranging from climate change to market and supply chain chang…

New digital tools for monitoring forest- and land-cover change have made it easier for civil society actors to call firms to account for deforestation. In response, companies in deforestation-linked global value chains (GVCs) have turned to these technologies themselves. In contrast to many case analyses of technology in GVCs, which focus on how technology changes production processes, forcing governance to adapt, forest-monitoring technologies c…
The bandwidth problem in telecoupled systems governance
The uneven geography of crowdfunding success
Optimists contend that crowdfunding, in which project backers use online campaigns to assemble numerous small donations, can democratize access to finance, but there are legitimate concerns that this funding approach remains discriminatory. Drawing on recent readings emphasizing the geographic components of Bourdieu's field theory, we argue the relationship between crowdfunding teams' resources and crowdfunding success is mediated by spatial capi…
