How Do Institutions Shape the Resilience of the Ethiopian Coffee Sector Amidst the Pressures of Climate Change
Climate change currently impacts coffee production, which necessitates institutional interventions to enhance the resilience of the coffee sector. The study aims to explore the institutional responses to climate change and the factors influencing their decisions in the Ethiopian coffee sector. 44 semi‐structured interviews and 30 focus group discussions were used to address the study question. We identify three types of institutions involved in c…
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…
Impact of climate change on Ethiopian Arabica coffee production and current challenges it poses to coffee value chain
The role of midstream actors in advancing the sustainability of agri-food supply chains
Ratcheting up private standards by exploiting coopetition
At its November 2018 annual meeting, the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) approved a new version of its foundational rules that advocates argued made it a zero-deforestation standard. Using a combination of over 160 key informant interviews and archival analysis, we argue that actors in the RSPO orbit made the High Carbon Stock Approach - a new method for defining forest boundaries that features heavy use of satellite data - attractive b…
Stretching or conforming? Financing urban climate change adaptation in Copenhagen
Cities worldwide are struggling to build resilience to the risks posed by climate change for their infrastructures, economies and quality of life. However, no city government has sufficient capacities to fund the adaptations required to ensure such resilience alone. Copenhagen’s efforts to secure financing for adaptation and mitigation are investigated, focusing on its innovative arrangements for funding projects to protect against extreme rainfa…
To see and be seen
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…
Harnessing relational values for global value chain sustainability
In credit systems, purportedly sustainable activities are undertaken in one place to compensate for unsustainable activities elsewhere. These mechanisms originated in pollution abatement systems but now are found in many sustainability programs, including supply chain certification. Credit programs are used in various sustainability certification programs to lower transaction costs, boost uptake, and direct more resources to small producers, but …
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…

Identity Status and Ego Development
This study was undertaken to examine the relationship between Marcia's identity statuses and Loevinger's stages of ego development through techniques of meta-analysis. Previous theory and research have suggested conceptual and empirical linkages. An initial database of 565 empirical studies of identity status in relation to personality, behavioral, relational, and developmental variables, undertaken between 1966 Marcia , J. E. ( 1966 ). Developme…
Identity Status and Moral Reasoning
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between Marcia's identity statuses and Kohlberg's stages of moral reasoning through techniques of meta-analysis. The following databases were examined for relevant studies from 1967 to 2005 using the search terms “identity status,” “Marcia and identity,” “Marcia's and identity,” and “ego identity”: PsycINFO, ERIC, Sociological Abstracts, and Dissertation Abstracts International. The search…
