Última Forests as landscapes of social inequality: tropical forest cover and land distribution among shifting cultivators Ecology and Society Coomes, Oliver T.; Department of Geography, McGill University; oliver.coomes@mcgill.ca; Takasaki, Yoshito; Graduate School of Economics, University of Tokyo; takasaki@e.u-tokyo.ac.jp; Rhemtulla, Jeanine M.; Department of Forest & Conservation Sciences, University of British Columbia; jeanine.rhemtulla@ubc.ca. Can social inequality be seen imprinted in a forest landscape? We studied the relationship between land holding, land use, and inequality in a peasant community in the Peruvian Amazon where farmers practice swidden-fallow cultivation. Longitudinal data on land holding, land use, and land cover were gathered through field-level surveys (n = 316) and household interviews (n = 51) in 1994/1995 and 2007. Forest cover change between 1965 and 2007 was documented through interpretation of air photos and satellite imagery. We introduce the concept of “land use inequality” to capture differences across households in the distribution of forest fallowing and orchard raising as key land uses that affect household welfare and the sustainability of...

Ano: 2016 Land-use regime shifts: an analytical framework and agenda for future land-use research Ecology and Society Ramankutty, Navin; Liu Institute for Global Issues; Institute for Resources, Environment, and Sustainability, University of British Columbia; navin.ramankutty@ubc.ca; Coomes, Oliver T.; Department of Geography, McGill University; oliver.coomes@mcgill.ca. A key research frontier in global change research lies in understanding processes of land change to inform predictive models of future land states. We believe that significant advances in the field are hampered by limited attention being paid to critical points of change termed land-use regime shifts. We present an analytical framework for understanding land-use regime shifts. We survey historical events of land change and perform in-depth case studies of soy and shrimp development in Latin America to demonstrate the role of preconditions, triggers, and self-reinforcing processes in driving land-use regime shifts. Whereas the land-use literature demonstrates a good understanding of within-regime dynamics, our understanding of the drivers of land-use regime...
