ASN Research Bulletin Issue 9: The Slow Violence of Dispossession and Extractivism
Editorial
The contributions in this issue highlight on the one hand, the weakening of the traditional peasantry through ongoing processes of agricultural modernization, and on the other, sustained struggles by those who till the land to protect their ecosystems, livelihoods, and as a basis for survival. These contradictory elements that stress rural working people and communities in the global south are in some cases modified and in others intensified by the current situation of the pandemic.

Caminos hacia una Transición Justa: Ecología y Movimientos Populares en el Sur
En la etapa actual de crisis sistémica, el control de la naturaleza no humana en las periferias globales se ha convertido en una preocupación central para el capital monopolista. La disputa por la apropiación de la naturaleza de las periferias no es nueva, pero sus manifestaciones y características se han visto modificadas con el resurgimiento del capital financiero y sus fuerzas hiper-especulativas. http://www.agrariansouth.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/SMAIAS-ASN-Escuela-de-Verano-2022__Convocatoria.pdf

CHAMADA DE TRABALHOS
ESCOLA DE VERÃO DO SMAIAS-ASN 2022: 17–21 de janeiro de 2022
Caminhos para uma Transição Justa: Ecologia e Movimentos Populares no Sul
No estágio atual de crise sistêmica, o controle da natureza não humana nas periferias globais pelo capital monopolista tornou-se uma preocupação central. A livre apropriação da natureza das periferias não é nova, mas suas manifestações e caráter foram alterados com o ressurgimento do capital financeiro e sua força hiperespeculativa. Tem havido uma penetração intensificada de investimentos estrangeiros corporativos nas periferias, especialmente em indústrias baseadas na natureza, como produtos florestais e derivados de madeira, pesca, extração mineral e sistemas terrestres e alimentares, enquanto o debate climático também mudou o ônus por preservar o equilíbrio ecológico do planeta para os países do Sul. http://www.agrariansouth.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/SMAIAS-ASN-Escola-de-Verao-2022__Chamada-de-Trabalhos.pdf

CALL FOR PAPERS
SMAIAS-ASN SUMMER SCHOOL 2022 17–21 January 2022
Pathways to a Just Transition: Ecology and Popular Movements in the South
In the current stage of systemic crisis, the harnessing of non-human nature in the global peripheries by monopoly capital has become a central concern. The free appropriation of nature from the peripheries is not new, yet its manifestations and character have been altered with the reemergence of finance capital and its hyper-speculative force. There has been an intensified penetration of corporate foreign investments in the peripheries, especially in nature-based industries such as forest produce and wood-based products, fishing, mineral extraction, and land and food systems, while the climate debate has also shifted the onus for preserving the ecological balance of the planet onto the countries of the South.
