Resistance strategies and diversification of rural livelihoods: the construction of autonomy among Brazilian family farmers (2010, background): “For Ploeg (2010, 16), these ‘resistance of the third kind’ mechanisms are the basis for what can be designated ‘repeasantization’ – a qualitative process materialising the ‘peasant mode of farming’.2 In this way, innovative practices reconnect agriculture, society, and nature.”
Smallholder Irrigation Schemes, Agrarian Reform and ‘Accumulation from Above and from Below’ in South Africa (2013, background): “2 For alternative formulations of the contemporary agrarian question, see McMichael (2009), Watts (2009) and van der Ploeg (2010).”
Rural development through the construction of new, nested, markets: comparative perspectives from China, Brazil and the European Union (2012, background): “Poulantzas (1974) saw a social relation of production as having two features: (a) it (re-) constitutes specific processes of labour and production, and (b) it (re-) defines the distribution of the wealth produced.”
Agroecology, Food Sovereignty, and the New Green Revolution (2012, background): “…knowledge systems, and smallholder’s pluriactive livelihood strategies preserve peasant farming systems, presenting barriers and competition for capitalist agriculture (Wilken 1988; Netting 1993), and resulting in the “persistence of the peasantry” (Edelman 2000, 14; see also van der Ploeg 2010).”
