Twelve principles for successful governance of community‐based coastal marine restoration

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Global agreements, such as the Global Biodiversity Framework, call for urgent, large‐scale action to halt biodiversity loss through a whole‐of‐society approach.

Comparing screening outcomes for private sector nature‐related assessments based on national and global biodiversity datasets

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In response to demand for better biodiversity stewardship from the private sector, frameworks such as the Taskforce on Nature‐related Financial Disclosures (TNFD) have been developed to help companies assess, manage, and disclose their nature‐related impacts, dependencies, risks, and opportunities.

The obsolescence of protected area categories in a polycrisis world

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Current global conservation models face significant limitations in addressing the global polycrisis, and the constraints of the International Union for Conservation of Nature protected area (PA) classification system are part of the issue. The principles of the new conservation paradigm—governance, equity, and interculturality—are not viable ...

Key practices for ethical research during scientific expeditions

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
In many cases, expeditionary practices undermined local knowledge and expertise. This perspective advocates for a shift from parachute science towards a collaborative research approach. We reflect on and suggest best practices during scientific expeditions within research teams and in the team's interactions with different communities.

‘Civilizing’ Smallholders Through Oil Palm: The Politics of Subsumption Across Southern Mexico's Commodity Frontiers

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While most frontier studies associate commodity expansions with dispossession, I argue that such expansions can also function as ‘civilizational’ projects aimed at overcoming traditional farming and creating new rural subjects better suited to the needs of capitalist development. Using a Gramscian approach to study subsumption, I analyse three
