  • ‘If you can see it, you can change it’: New data technologies and legibility in global oceans governance

    Open Access•Lisa M Campbell, Carden Barkley et al.•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning E Nature…•2026

    New data technologies are taking center stage in environmental governance because of their potential to reveal the contours of existing and emerging environmental concerns, evaluate management interventions, and identify and facilitate targeted action to improve environmental conditions. In this paper, we explore the first phase research program (2016–2020) of Global Fishing Watch (GFW), a high-profile ocean data science initiative that mobilizes…

    Open Access•Elizabeth Havice, Anna Zalik et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Agrarian Change•2025•Cited by: 4•References: 38

    Recent years have seen a sharp uptick in efforts to expedite resource extraction in, and expand biodiversity conservation to, Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (ABNJ), the ~70% of oceans outside state space. In this symposium piece, we explore the co-constitution of the parallel acceleration of biodiversity conservation and economic exploitation that is unfolding in ways unique to the high seas, but consistent with global patterns wherein this c…

  • Relational environmental governance: A critical framework for praxis with the material world

    Open Access•Miles Kenney-Lazar, A Johnson et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Political Ecology•2023•Cited by: 2

    Environmental governance (EG) has become a hegemonic concept for understanding and transforming environmental decision-making processes that operate beyond the state. However, political ecologists, drawing from a diverse set of theoretical frameworks, have critiqued the concept for being malleable, vague, and apolitical, which has enabled its appropriation in ways that conceal inequality and difference, advocate techno-managerial fixes, and espou…

  • Architecture, agency and ocean data science initiatives: Data-driven transformation of oceans governance

    Open Access•Lauren Drakopulos, Elizabeth Havice et al.•ARTICLE•Earth System Governance•2022•Cited by: 5•References: 15

    The oceans are regarded as both relatively under-governed and understudied, especially at the global and regional scales. By mobilizing data with the express goal of improving oceans governance, ocean data science initiatives (ODSIs) are positioned to play a critical role in addressing and perhaps collapsing these gaps and to provide the “science we need for the ocean we want.” We argue that ODSIs are now critical oceans governance actors, to be …

  • Resources are vexing

    Open Access•Gabriela Valdivia, Matthew Himley et al.•ARTICLE•Progress in Environmental Geography•2022•Cited by: 2•References: 95

    Resource use and management are central concerns to environmental geography scholars, who have mobilized diverse approaches to examine the making, circulation, and socioecological effects of resources and resource systems. Informed by our reading of the resource geography literature and our experiences editing The Routledge Handbook of Critical Resource Geography, we reflect on the role of resources in the study of human–environment interactions.…

    Knowledge and scientific practice have largely been backdrops to examinations of scale and rescaling processes, including studies of rescaling environmental management. The growing use of new data technologies in environmental management highlights the need to situate knowledge and scientific practice into the politics and production of scale. Reviewing sixty years of debate over spatial management of the highly migratory and Atlantic bluefin tun…

  • The Routledge Handbook of Critical Resource Geography

    Matthew Himley, Elizabeth Havice et al.•BOOK•Routledge Handbook of Critical…•2021

    Mining has become such a terrain of conflict that there are multiple pressures on researchers to take sides. At one extreme, co-convening an event with a mining corporation can be interpreted by critical social science colleagues as allowing the company to use the event to claim legitimacy for its social responsibility work. At another extreme, to assume a critical position on human rights abuses at a mine site can lead the mining sector to cast …

    Open Access•Abigail Bennett, Xavier Basurto et al.•ARTICLE•AMBIO•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 30

    The international development community is off-track from meeting targets for alleviating global malnutrition. Meanwhile, there is growing consensus across scientific disciplines that fish plays a crucial role in food and nutrition security. However, this ‘fish as food’ perspective has yet to translate into policy and development funding priorities. We argue that the traditional framing of fish as a natural resource emphasizes economic developmen…

  • Agroecology, Supply Chains, and Covid-19: Lessons on Food System Transitions from Ecuador

    Open Access•Angus Lyall, Fernanda Vallejo et al.•ARTICLE•Culture Agriculture Food and…•2021•Cited by: 3•References: 25

    In cities, agroecological food consumption is often identified as an exclusive, middle-class practice. In this article, we examine changes in agroecological food circuits in urban Ecuador, amid COVID-19 breakdowns in conventional food systems. Through interviews with farmers, government officials, and NGO workers in 2020 and 2021, our research identifies three sets of experiences with distinct implications for agroecological transitions. First, s…

    In the spirit of Ibert et al.’s ‘Geographies of Dissociation: Value Creation, “Dark” Places, and “Missing” Links’, we briefly suggest several ways in which ‘Geographies of Dissociation’ itself elides certain crucial issues in the cultural economies of value. The first relates to the need to develop more fully and concretely the relational spatialities of globally networked production. The second follows from this by suggesting that, in order to c…

  • The Politics of Development Metrics and Measurement: Impact Evaluations in Fairtrade-certified Plantation Agriculture

    The dynamic and unfolding relationship between the oceans and humans underwrites a general narrative of oceans in 'crisis' and the need for new governance and regulatory frameworks to attend to it. As concerns surrounding marine space have proliferated, sovereignty, territory and property in the oceans remain imprecise and subject to controversy, presenting challenges (and opportunities) for oceans governance. This special issue employs the conce…

  • Science, scale and the frontier of governing mobile marine species

    Open Access•Elizabeth Havice, Lisa M Campbell et al.•ARTICLE•International Social Science…•2018•Cited by: 4•References: 47

    Marine turtles have complex life histories and make expansive migrations over their long lifetimes, often through multiple states' exclusive economic zones and areas beyond national jurisdiction. This complexity makes it difficult to "know" marine turtles and presents jurisdictional mismatches for existing state and inter-state bodies that govern turtles. This paper examines how scientists tasked with assessing marine turtles for the Internationa…

  • Where Chain Governance and Environmental Governance Meet: Interfirm Strategies in the Canned Tuna Global Value Chain

    Elizabeth Havice, Liam Campling•ARTICLE•Economic Geography•2017•Cited by: 25•References: 44

    In value chain scholarship, chain governance is the relationship of power among firms in a production network. For economic geographers working on the environment, governance refers primarily to state- and nonstate-based institutional and regulatory arrangements shaping human–environment interactions. Yet the theoretical and empirical links between these two concepts of governance are opaque. Drawing on a longitudinal case study of the canned tun…

  • The problem of property in industrial fisheries

    Liam Campling, Elizabeth Havice•ARTICLE•The Journal of Peasant Studies•2014•Cited by: 56•References: 46

    Fisheries systems are widely considered to be 'in crisis' in both economic and ecological terms, a considerable concern given their global significance to food security, international trade and employment. The most common explanation for the crisis suggests that it is caused by weak and illiberal property regimes. It follows that correcting the crisis involves the creation of private property rights that will restore equilibrium between the profi…

    The Western and Central Pacific Ocean (WCPO) tuna fishery is the largest and most valuable in the world. Although the International Law of the Sea granted Pacific island countries the right to exploit and manage this valuable fishery, they have been unable to prevent resource decline or to capture economic development potential from their intersections with the global tuna industry. Variants of neoliberalism identify Pacific island countries' wea…

    Open Access•Elizabeth Havice, Kristin Reed•ARTICLE•Journal of Agrarian Change•2012•Cited by: 16•References: 30

    Papua New Guinea (PNG) is an island state with sovereign rights over valuable tuna resources. Historically, PNG captured value from tuna only by charging licensing fees to foreign fishing fleets, which relegated PNG as a source of raw material for the global tuna industry. To capture more value from tuna - including much-needed jobs and infrastructure - the PNG government now offers firms that invest in domestic tuna processing plants strategic, …

As an entry point into this question, this article explores the fifty-year, multistate struggle over access to, and control over, highly migratory tuna stocks in the Pacific Ocean, focusing on the historical relationship among Pacific Island states, the United States, and the United States–flagged tuna fishing …

  • Ocean frontiers: Epistemologies, Jurisdictions, Commodifications

    The dynamic and unfolding relationship between the oceans and humans underwrites a general narrative of oceans in 'crisis' and the need for new governance and regulatory frameworks to attend to it. As concerns surrounding marine space have proliferated, sovereignty, territory and property in the oceans remain imprecise and subject to controversy, presenting challenges (and opportunities) for oceans governance. This special issue employs the conce…

  • Science, scale and the frontier of governing mobile marine species

    Marine turtles have complex life histories and make expansive migrations over their long lifetimes, often through multiple states' exclusive economic zones and areas beyond national jurisdiction. This complexity makes it difficult to "know" marine turtles and presents jurisdictional mismatches for existing state and inter-state bodies that govern turtles. This paper examines how scientists tasked with assessing marine turtles for the Internationa…

  • Articulating value and missing links in ‘Geographies of Dissociation’

    Open Access•Elizabeth Havice, John Pickles•ARTICLE•Dialogues in Human Geography•2019•Cited by: 1•References: 6

    In the spirit of Ibert et al.’s ‘Geographies of Dissociation: Value Creation, “Dark” Places, and “Missing” Links’, we briefly suggest several ways in which ‘Geographies of Dissociation’ itself elides certain crucial issues in the cultural economies of value. The first relates to the need to develop more fully and concretely the relational spatialities of globally networked production. The second follows from this by suggesting that, in order to c…

  • The Politics of Development Metrics and Measurement: Impact Evaluations in Fairtrade-certified Plantation Agriculture

    Open Access•Angus Lyall, Elizabeth Havice•ARTICLE•Development and Change•2019•Cited by: 4•References: 36

    This article presents an analysis of impact evaluations in the case of Fairtrade International in order to track the political effects of metrics and measurement procedures in development practice today. Metrics or 'indicators' have long been understood to have the effect of transforming the political visions of socioeconomic change that shape development interventions into seemingly non-contentious, technical models. The common practice among de…

    Mining has become such a terrain of conflict that there are multiple pressures on researchers to take sides. At one extreme, co-convening an event with a mining corporation can be interpreted by critical social science colleagues as allowing the company to use the event to claim legitimacy for its social responsibility work. At another extreme, to assume a critical position on human rights abuses at a mine site can lead the mining sector to cast …

  • Recognize fish as food in policy discourse and development funding

    Open Access•Abigail Bennett, Xavier Basurto et al.•ARTICLE•AMBIO•2021•Cited by: 1•References: 30

    The international development community is off-track from meeting targets for alleviating global malnutrition. Meanwhile, there is growing consensus across scientific disciplines that fish plays a crucial role in food and nutrition security. However, this ‘fish as food’ perspective has yet to translate into policy and development funding priorities. We argue that the traditional framing of fish as a natural resource emphasizes economic developmen…

    This multi-authored collection of papers examines the complex realities of research on natural resource industries, including the messy entanglements of extraction, materiality, and everyday social life this research entails. Of central importance to the contributors is how scholars confront fieldwork challenges ethically, methodologically, and corporeally. The collection has two key objectives. First, it expands our understanding of extractive i…
