Do some forms of social capital matter more for diet quality? Propensity score matching evidence from intra-household data in Pakistan
Social capital matters for diet quality. We show how heterogeneous social capital resources mobilized by male and female household members impact their diet quality during a food price shock in Pakistan. Social capital is defined as material (i.e. instrumental) resources mobilized from interpersonal network ties. Our propensity score matching analysis relies on an intra-household personal network survey to document how heterogeneity in social cap…
Translating disaster resilience
Farm workers’ food security during food price hikes
Perfect Pretext
Using Frankfurt School Critical Theory, we examine the political outcomes of how Asian populist authoritarian regimes seized the COVID-19 pandemic context for regime maintenance and power consolidation. The pandemic revealed interesting India-Philippines parallels highlighting three inter-connected political-economic development patterns contextualising analogous state responses to COVID-19. First, how neo-liberal economic policies pursued throug…
Persistent racialized commodification amidst technological innovation
Available internet research focus on the linear transition from Web1.0 to Web3.0 without realizing their interplay across platforms and interactions with analog and real-world. Such interactions are examined in the foreign bride trade industry's shifting and stable discursive representations of Filipino women as the industry moved from analog print catalogues to static, unidirectional Web1.0, multidirectional Web2.0 and decentralized Web3.0. Tech…
Inert Resilience and Institutional Traps
The institutional and political contexts of climate action matter. Planning and sustainability science have parallel interests in politics and institutions, particularly in institutional reforms that balance continuity and change. Our theorizing inert resilience highlights micro (individual) and meso (institutional) foundations of macro-state capacities for climate adaptation through social learning and transformative capacity building. Using sur…
Re-scaling and re-contextualizing agriculture-industry synergies for rural development
Macro-level studies remain insufficient in explaining localized failures of agriculture-industry synergies (AIS). Learning from long-term ethnographic and observational fieldwork, as well as semi-structured inquiries with agrarian capitalists and farmers in an urbanizing rurality outside Metro Manila, we re-contextualize and re-scale AIS failures. Weak synergies are symptomatic of (i) extractive institutions and capital accumulation between agrar…

Revisiting the Madrassa Question in Pakistan
The association of madrassas as “breeding grounds for terrorists” is problematic, exacerbated by a lack of understanding of how Islamic religious schools function and contribute to cities and urban social life. Our article provides an interpretative examination of the so-called madrassa question by explaining the urban-spatial embeddedness of madrassas and emphasizing the heightened sense and deployment of religious identities in the quotidian “w…
Empathy and Entangled Engagements
This forum presents six projects that experiment with creative methodologies as a means of creating new knowledges and solidarities within and across transnational communities. These projects contribute to the “creative turn” in the geohumanities through transnational (re)framings of empathy at various scales; by attempting to “provincialize” understandings of empathy; through efforts to pry apart the complexity of empathy in transit within the t…
Ethnographic Poetry and Social Research
Ethnographic poetry as a form of creative nonfiction has much to offer applied social research in general and geohumanities and sociocultural geography in particular as a refined, nuanced, and useful critical-creative communicative form of scholarship and research method. Two transnational cross-cultural collaborative research projects are used as cases to illustrate the potentials of the use of the creative arts, particularly (auto)ethnographic …

Community development and other extra-religious functions of Islamic schools
Although the nexus between religion, faith-based organizations, and community development is well established in the literature, the potential for change driven by indigenous and grassroots social structures such as Islamic schools (madrassas) is still largely ignored in practice. Against the backdrop of overall educational and political economic reforms affecting Pakistan, this paper examines the community development function and other extra-re…
From rural life to transnational wife
Popular and academic discourses of globalization are often gender biased, focusing on formal and impersonal realms of the market, politics, and technologies. This article explores an intimate dimension of globalization by analyzing the transnational marriage trend among women in northeast Thailand (Isan's) villages. The phua farang (foreign husband) phenomenon in Isan epitomizes the intimate link between the global political economy and individua…

The gender dimension of the agrarian transition
Based on parallel field research conducted in two peri-urban villages in the cities of Naga and Valencia, the Philippines, this article deploys gender analysis to understand livelihood diversification in the context of agrarian change. In analyzing the role of state organizations and NGOs in (re)producing gender differences, hierarchies, roles and identities within agrarian settings, it brings poststructuralist and postcolonial theory into conver…

New Issues, New Perspectives
This paper examines the introduction of “new” contextual issues and analytical concepts within International Development Studies (ids) that have shaped the current penchant for the “development and other” focus. Contextual issues (e.g., poverty, aid, health, education, hiv/aids, new information and communication technologies [icts], peacekeeping, and conflict resolution) and highly contested analytical concepts (e.g., gender, environment or susta…
Canadian Universities and International Development
This introduction locates the special issue's focus on Canadian universities and development within the current discourse on “internationalization.” We argue that the push for the internationalization of universities does not necessarily address international development unless universities demonstrate a strong commitment to make development, and its related goals of poverty reduction, social justice, and global citizenship, central to their teac…
Creating social spaces for transnational feminist advocacy
The postauthoritarian democratisation process in the Philippines saw the rise of ‘state feminism’, which emphasised gender mainstreaming in government development planning. Various international development agencies, particularly the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), played an important role in harnessing the social capital of women's movements and nongovernmental organisations (NGOs) for gender and development (GAD) programs in t…

The Political Dimension in the Agrarian Question
This paper on the rural political sociology of a Philippine province relates the strategies of political resilience of landed oligarchies to the political dimension of the agrarian question in the Philippines. Bukidnon in Northern Mindanao is used to illustrate how pioneer agrarian families have protected their economic privileges and survived the political challenge posed by migrant politicians. Despite differences in their economic bases and so…
Planning for Participatory Capacity Development
This paper analyses the challenges in the use of participatory approaches and North-South partnerships in three capacity-building projects sponsored by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) in Vietnam, Brazil and the Philippines. The shifts in development orientation, that led to the current emphasis on capacity development framework, are analyzed as background to the discussion of common dilemmas in participation and cross-cultura…

The rich, the poor, and the hungry
Studies on class structures and relations in Asian societies have mainly examined the “three great classes” of peasants, workers, and landed capitalists. The 1950s-1960s saw the initial explosion in Asian peasant and labor studies, because of the rural insurgencies, and later, a focus on rural development by international financial agencies. The then understudied dominant classes in Asia, and elsewhere, led Paul Baran to stress the need to unders…
