Plantation Agriculture
Today's food systems cannot be separated from the plantation and its histories. To understand the connection between the global food system and the particular forms of plantation agriculture that shaped it entails thinking about power as a constitutive element of food systems and food system transformation.

Geographies of empire
The implementation of US-backed agricultural initiatives under what became known as the Green Revolution (1945-1970) reshaped populations, ecologies, and landscapes worldwide. While most investigations into the implications of this era focus on the development of intensive farming in places such as Mexico, India, and the Philippines, few offer critical analysis of its Caribbean manifestations. This paper examines the role of the Green Revolution …
