Dear colleagues: Our special issue on the Political Economy and Ecology of Capture Fisheries in the Journal of Agrarian Change is available electronically. The table of contents is below, please let me know if you are unable to access any of the articles and circulate widely (and apologies for any cross postings). I hope this will be useful, and I also note that the volume speaks nicely (from a sector-specific perspective) to Clapp and Helleiner's recent call to draw larger structural trends in international political economy into our studies of the environment and environmental politics (Clapp, J. & Helleiner, E. 2012, 'International political economy and the environment: back to the basics?' International Affairs, 88 (3): 485-501). Wishing you all a happy-end of semester.
