Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy

Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy

Aims & Scope

Agrarian South: Journal of Political Economy 🔗 is the official periodical publication of the Agrarian South Network (ASN), a South-South network of researchers and institutions in Africa, Asia and Latin America/Caribbean. The journal was founded in 2012 and is published tri-annually (April, August and December) by the Centre for Agrarian Research and Education for South (CARES), the ASN affiliate in India, and Sage India, in New Delhi. Agrarian South is a scientific, interdisciplinary journal which promotes innovative research on the political economy of world development and aims to contribute to global debates on the multi-faceted challenges of our times, namely the agrarian, environmental and development crises. The journal encourages original approaches to the political economy of development and invites research on issues related to land and agrarian reform, gender and labour relations, race and caste in social transformation, rural and urban industrialization, global environmental change, sustainable use of natural resources, land and social movements, trends and trajectories in the world economy, and North-South relations. The journal promotes research in the intellectual traditions of the Third World and is committed to the advancement of autonomous capacity and thinking in the South. The journal awards biennially the Samir Amin Young Scholars’ Prize in Political Economy of Development and co-sponsors, with SMAIAS, the annual Sam Moyo Memorial Lecture. Special issues dedicated to specific themes are organized every year, as well as special sections periodically.
