it’s very easyfor us to criticize the cops... but systems of oppression work togetherand the same stuff that’s leading to horrific police killings of innocentblack men and women is the same system of oppression that’s causinggentrification, yet we don’t acknowledge that we have a part to play ingentrification by installing solar for a lot of nasty building owners

When individuals labor beyond what is necessary for theirown reproduction and the "surplus" fruits of their labor are appropriatedby others (or themselves), and when that surplus is distributed to its socialdestinations, then we may recognize the processes of class

The different formsof class processes are merely part of an "economy" that encompassesinnumerable other processes - exchange, speculation, waste, production,plunder, consumption, hoarding, innovation, competition, predation -none of which can be said (outside of a particular discursive or pol-itical context) to be less important or consequential than exploitation

In the context of a capitalist monolith, where class is reduced to twofundamental class positions, sometimes supplemented by intermediateor ambiguous class locations, individuals are often seen as membersof an objectively defined or subjectively identified social grouping thatconstitutes their "class."

Why might it seem problematic to say that the United States is aChristian nation, or a heterosexual one, despite the widespread beliefthat Christianity and heterosexuality are dominant or majority practicesin their respective domains, while at the same time it seems legitimateand indeed "accurate" to say that the US is a capitalist country

political economy and economic geography

certifying

SRs seem to be less successful in establishing a sizeable presence in the market when they are more participatory, transparent and adopt more democratic and complex procedures.

Sustainable Farm Management

Some studies have shown the tendency toward economies of scale and vertical integration in those value chains that adopt sustainability standards, which means that certification may imply economic sustainability for some enterprises, but not for others

The two notions of sustainability of the enterprise (distractions and added value) are in constant tension in the enactment of SustainabiliTea, as actors must negotiate the difficulties of maintaining certification so they might enjoy the benefits of increased tea consumption.

It involves ethnographic research inside and around corporations, from the boardrooms where important decisions are made to the courtrooms, shareholder actions, and public protests where corporations face resistance and the farms, factories, and markets where production and consumption take place.

There are a handful of ethnographic studies of corporations that examine the kind of relationship between industry and its critics that we address in this paper

In fact, because efficiency brings down the costs of goods over time, it can actually have the perverse effect of increasing production and consumption (sometimes referred to as the ‘rebound effect’

If we just sum up, these would include the earth’soverexploited natural systems, such as land surface, subterranean naturalresources, the atmosphere and the oceans. Diagnosis instead is confinedmainly to the problem of the overexploitation of resources and sinks, espe-cially those of the atmosphere, caused by excessive CO2 emissions.

postponing hazardous negative consequences into the futureor externalizing them across space.

That Fordism was thepre-eminent theoretical subject of Regulation theory is not in doubt; butthe extent to which a specific post-Fordist or neoliberal mode of develop-ment has emerged remains contested

Society as a structured totality thus is reproduced through the actionsof individuals and groups pursuing quite different strategies and possess-ing very dissimilar resources, both in terms of allocation and in terms ofauthority.

Functionality here is measuredby the extent to which norms of production and consumption are beingadjusted in a way that avoids ever-larger crises of overproduction orunder-consumption and instead puts in place mechanisms allowing for theexternalization of crisis, be it through spatial, material and/or sectoral dis-placement, in order to stabilize capital accumulation over a certain periodof time.

It is our argument in this chapter that the various strategies pursuedunder the Green Economy umbrella are in the process of establishing whatmay develop into a new capitalist formation, potentially taking the place
