Genealogy of a social movement
This article considers the emergence of the social movement in resistance to the military coup in Honduras as a logical continuation of a movement that had been gaining momentum throughout the 2000s. Contrary to much mainstream analysis, this paper insists that it was the strength of the social movement that actually pushed former President Manuel Zelaya towards a project of reform in the first place, which eventually prompted the Right-wing coup…
Enclosing the Commons in Honduras
We are witnessing in the 21st century a dramatic new wave of enclosures of common resources and traditional or indigenous landholdings, as small agrarian producers across the global South are losing their land to large corporations and landowners, especially in the agribusiness and extractive industries. In the context of competing theories about land grabbing and the global commons, this article will offer a detailed empirical account of the str…
Land Seizure, Dispossession, and Canadian Capital in Honduras
While there is a growing literature on the phenomenon of land seizure by agribusiness and extractive industries, and their disastrous social and ecological effects around the world, there is often a shroud of vagueness and mystification about the concrete practices by which extractive companies come to gain access to the land itself. This is especially true since these companies increasingly veil their activities in plausible claims of “social re…
The New Canadian Imperialism and the Military Coup in Honduras
Canada's key role in supporting the 2009 coup d'état in Honduras is emblematic of a new Canadian imperialist positioning in world affairs. A close reading of Canadian state responses to the coup and the repression that followed points to the apparent contradiction in its being an outspoken supporter of a violent and antidemocratic regime despite rhetorical commitments to peace and security. The contradiction can be explained in terms of the exten…
Currency Wars
The provocative thesis of Tyler Shipley’s “Currency Wars: Oil, Iraq, and the Future of US Hegemony” is that the war in Iraq may have been motivated by oil interests, but not in the manner described by most critics. Rather, Shipley argues that the war is about preserving dollar hegemony in the international oil market. The rise of the euro, together with actions by individual states, have led to the perception by the Bush administration that the U…
