Abstract

This book empirically discusses recent struggles over land and mining, exploring state-society relations conflicts on various scales. In contrast with the existing literature, analyses in this volume deliberately focus on large-scale land use changes both in relation to the expansion of industrial mining and to agro-industry. The authors contend that there are significant parallels between contestations over different variants of resource extractivism, as they reflect the same global trends and processes. Chapters draw on critical theoretical approaches from political ecology, political economy, spatial theory, contentious politics, and the study of democracy. The authors not only provide empirical insights on actual resource struggles from different world regions based on in-depth field research, but also contribute to theory-building by linking concepts from various critical approaches to one another, developing a perspective for analysing struggles over resources related to current global crisis phenomena.

Abstract

Diagramme, Zeitreihen, Netzwerke, Histogramme… Vor fünfzehn oder zwanzig Jahren hätte man in Artikeln über das Kino und die Musik, die Literatur und die bildende Kunst noch nichts davon gefunden. Die Visualisierung kultureller Daten ist es, was die digital humanities auf den ersten Blick von den älteren geisteswissenschaftlichen Verfahren unterscheidet. In seinem neuen Buch reflektiert Franco Moretti einige der stillschweigend geteilten, manchmal vielleicht nur unbewusst mitgeführten Prämissen dieser neuen Untersuchungspraxis – geleitet von der Überzeugung, dass diese Praxis sehr starke theoretische Voraussetzungen mit sich führt, die offen gelegt werden müssen. "Falsche Bewegung" bietet eine ebenso ehrliche wie anspruchsvoll-kritische Einschätzung der sogenannten "quantitativen" Wende in den Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaften, zu der der Autor selbst mit der Gründung des Literary Lab 2010 in Stanford einen entscheidenden Impuls gegeben hat. Seine Synthese, die die Wegmarken abschreitet, die nach und nach auf der Forschungsroute der hier versammelten Beiträge erreicht wurden, eröffnet neue Perspektiven auf das, was für die humanities an diesem strategischen Wendepunkt auf dem Spiel steht: Was hat der quantitative Ansatz erreicht, welche Erwartungen wurden (nicht) erfüllt und was geschieht mit der wissenschaftlichen Vorstellungskraft in den humanities, wenn Probleme der Statistik und Programmierung Fragen nach der Form in den Hintergrund drängen?

Abstract

"Exploring the emerging and vibrant field of critical agrarian studies, this comprehensive Handbook offers interdisciplinary insights from both leading scholars and activists to understand agrarian life, livelihoods, formations and processes of change. It highlights the development of the field, which is characterized by theoretical and methodological pluralism and innovation. The Handbook presents critical analyses of, and examines controversies about, historical and contemporary social structures and processes in agrarian and rural settings from a wide range of perspectives. Chapters explore the origins of critical agrarian studies, the concepts underpinning the diverse theoretical approaches to the field, and the strengths and weaknesses of different methodologies used within the field. Finally, it illuminates debates around the topic and trajectories for future research and development. This will be a vital resource for graduate students, scholars and activists interested in critical agrarian studies. The analytical and empirical insights will also be helpful to students of environmental and development studies as well as agricultural and development economics, human geography and socio-cultural anthropology"--
