Research Interests

My research focuses on alternatives to agribusiness development that challenge the dominant neoliberal food regime and contribute to potential sustainable transitions. Particularly, I am interested in understanding the complex working of power in oil palm and soybean agribusiness for their consolidation in Colombia and Bolivia and the strategies of resistance of grassroots organizations aimed at eroding this power, such as the peasant economies, agroecology, and food sovereignty.
