Black Marxism and the English working class
This article engages with the theoretical contributions of Cedric Robinson's book Black Marxism by arguing that racialised differentiation played an important role in capitalism's emergence in England. Drawing on the methodologies of critical historiography used by Robinson in Black Marxism , the author discusses how the medieval social order in England was marked by both colonialism and racialism, and the dynamics of these fundamentally influenc…
Moral Economies of Life and Death
What does it mean to think of chemicals as kin? Building on the concepts of chemical kinships and pollution as colonialism, I use a feminist storytelling methodology grounded in relational ontology to explore my kinship relationships with reactive nitrogen, and the way it both hurts me and gives me life. Agriculture and organic chemistry are close kin to imperialism, capitalism, and environmental destruction, and, as a white British woman, I argu…
Their agriculture, our agriculture
Agroecology research on the Global North is recognised by scholars in the Global South as technical and environmental, ignoring the political dimensions of agroecological movements and change. This article applies the epistemological traditions of critical Latin American agroecology to a Global North case study: England, in the United Kingdom. As the origin nation of capitalist industrial agriculture, the application of Latin American agroecologi…
Fishing rights, property rights, human rights
Property rights are a widely advocated policy tool to encourage stewardship over a range of environmental goods. Despite the extent to which property rights are dependent upon law to work, economists rarely consider that property rights are enmeshed within a complex web of pre-existing national and international legal frameworks—such as human rights law—that put strict limitations on the way they operate. This important issue is illustrated here …
Towards deliberative and pragmatic co-management
In seeking to answer the question ‘who should be included in fisheries co-management?’, a constructive critique of the existing co-management literature is provided by filling the gaps of Habermas’s deliberative theory of democracy with Dewey’s pragmatism. Three conditions for ensuring democratic co-management are extrapolated from the theories: actors’ authority over decision making (empowerment), actors’ diversity (membership), and the right to…
The fisherly imagination
Power and Performativity in the Creation of the UK Fishing-Rights Market
Judith Butler's work on performativity takes an explicitly Foucauldian approach to politics. The economic performativity literature, in comparison, has been criticised for failing to foreground power. This paper uses a case study of market creation in UK marine fisheries to suggest, after Butler, ways in which a Foucauldian analysis of the exercise of power can inform our understanding of economic performativity
