In 2021 members of The Journal of Peasant Studies (JPS) Editorial Collective wrote an essay inviting contributions to the then new JPS Forum on “Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies.” The guiding questions were, for example, “how the relationship between capitalism and climate change plays out in the rural world” or how “agrarian struggles connect with the challenge of climate change.” The invitation gained momentum and what followed was a large conference in 2022 and eventually the publication of the volume Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies (2024). This semester we will be reading selected papers from this volume.

 

In the first of three meetings we will discuss:

1) Chapter 1: Saturnino M. Borras Jr., Ian Scoones, Amita Baviskar, Marc Edelman, Nancy Lee Peluso and Wendy Wolford, "Climate change and agrarian struggles", in: Scoones, Ian; Borras Jr., Saturnino M.; Baviskar, Amita; Edelman, Marc; Peluso, Nancy Lee; Wolford, Wendy (eds), Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies, (eds), Oxford 2023, pp. 1–28.

Originally published: "Climate change and agrarian struggles an invitation to contribute to a JPS Forum“, Saturnino M. Borras Jr., Ian Scoones, Amita Baviskar, Marc Edelman, Nancy Lee Peluso and Wendy Wolford, in: The Journal of Peasant Studies, volume 49, issue 1 (2022) pp. 1–28.

 

2) Chapter 7: Tanya Matthan, "Beyond bad weather: climates of uncertainty in rural India“, in: Scoones, Ian; Borras Jr., Saturnino M.; Baviskar, Amita; Edelman, Marc; Peluso, Nancy Lee; Wolford, Wendy (eds), Climate Change and Critical Agrarian Studies, (eds), Oxford 2023, pp. 164–185.

Originally published: Matten, Tanya. "Beyond bad weather: climates of uncertainty in rural India“, in: The Journal of Peasant Studies, volume 50, issue 1 (2023) pp. 114–135.
