The Capital–Labour–State Dynamics of Herbicide Adoption in Rainfed India
Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper engages debates around the capital–labour–state dynamics of agrarian transitions to address the oft‐studied but still little‐understood question of why farmers adopt herbicides when they do.

Artificial Intelligence as an Organizing Capability Arising from Human‐Algorithm Relations
Journal of Management Studies, EarlyView.Abstract In this article, we move beyond the prevailing view of artificial intelligence (AI) as an independent entity within organizations, which, we argue, risks obscuring potential explanations of the effects of AI on organizing.
