FPO TALKS 2023 - Dr Rowan Lubbock: Fields and Frontiers: Agriculture and the Making of International (Dis)Order

His previous research examined the politics of food sovereignty within Venezuela and the Latin American regional institution, the ALBA-TCP (Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America-Peoples Trade Treaty), as well as the historical sociology of Latin American regionalism more broadly.
His current project expands on these topics, with a critical analysis of agriculture in the making of international (dis)order. With specific focus on the historical formation of the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organisation, this long-term archival research project aims to shed much needed light on the ways in which humanity’s transformation of the earth simultaneously transforms ‘the international’.

Date of the event: 5th July, 10.15 – 11. 00 (CET)
Venue: MOME (1121 Budapest, Zugligeti út 9-25.), UP_217
