Abstract

Building on the differentiated analysis of India’s agrarian crisis, this article argues for centring ecology in understanding the crisis faced by agricultural labour. The empirical case is of landless Dalit women in Punjab, India, experiencing the shift from a cotton-dominated labour regime to a paddy-dominated one. It delineates the materiality(s) of commodity, workplace, and body associated with the two regimes and explores its contingent intersections with social reproduction, caste oppression, capital’s strategies, and the state. Overall, the article argues that labour’s agrarian crisis is both produced through ecology and manifests in/as ecology across different moments and levels of analysis.

期刊介绍: The aims of the Journal of Economic Geography are to redefine and reinvigorate the intersection between economics and geography, and to provide a world-class journal in the field. The journal is steered by a distinguished team of Editors and an Editorial Board, drawn equally from the two disciplines. It publishes original academic research and discussion of the highest scholarly standard in the field of ''economic geography'' broadly defined. Submitted papers are refereed, and are evaluated on the basis of their creativity, quality of scholarship, and contribution to advancing understanding of the geographic nature of economic systems and global economic change.
