New frontiers of land control: Introduction

TL;DR: Land questions have invigorated agrarian studies and economic history, with particular emphases on its control, since Marx as mentioned in this paper, since the early 1970s, and have been associated with various forms of accumulation, frontiers, enclosures, territories, grabs, and racialization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Payments for ecosystem services: From local to global

TL;DR: Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) is becoming increasingly popular as a way to manage ecosystems using economic incentives as mentioned in this paper, where the authors developed a set of principles (the Heredia Declaration) for PES systems and report on evolving initiatives in several countries.
Journal ArticleDOI

Making things the same: Gases, Emission Rights and the Politics of Carbon Markets

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyse the development of carbon markets: markets in permits to emit greenhouse gases or in credits earned by not emitting them, and discuss the attitude that should be taken to carbon markets (for example by environmentalists) and the possibility of developing a "politics of market design" oriented to making such markets more effective tools of abatement.
Journal ArticleDOI

Toward a different debate in environmental accounting: The cases of carbon and cost–benefit

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the concrete conflicts, contradictions and resistances engendered by environmental accounting techniques and the perpetually incomplete efforts of accountants and their allies to overcome them, and explore how costbenefit analysis and the carbon accounting techniques required by the Kyoto Protocol, the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme and other carbon trading mechanisms "frame" new agents, spaces, relations and objects, and what the consequences have been and are likely to be.
Journal ArticleDOI

In the 21st Century, what is an acceptable response rate?

TL;DR: It is argued that response rate alone may not be sufficient evidence to judge study quality and/or validity, and that in addition to reporting the response rates, requiring authors to disclose any known details about their non-participants, attempts to improve participation, and the denominators used to calculate response rates should assist editors and reviewers to assess the validity and utility of study findings more accurately.
