  • Visions of the middle landscape: Organic farming and the politics of nature. [REVIEW]Timothy Vos - 2000 - Agriculture and Human Values 17 (3):245-256.
    The proposed federal regulation oforganic agriculture in the United States raisesquestions both about the nature and character oforganic farming, as well as its relation to theagro-food system at large.

  • Transitions to sustainability: a change in thinking about food systems change?C. Clare Hinrichs - 2014 - Agriculture and Human Values 31 (1):143-155.
    In the present context of intertwined and intensifying economic, environmental and climate challenges and crisis, we need to enlarge our thinking about food systems change. One way to do so is by considering intersections between our longstanding interdisciplinary interest in food and agriculture and new scholarship and practice centered on transitions to sustainability. The general idea of transition references change in a wide range of fields and contexts, and has gained prominence most recently as a way to discuss and address (...)

  • After 40 years Agriculture and Human Values still pursuing the founder’s goals.Kate Clancy - 2023 - Agriculture and Human Values 40 (1):49-51.
    This essay describes some of the work leading up to the first issue of the Journal as a way to understand why it took the form it did and why its guiding concepts are still relevant. Those concepts-identifying philosophical assumptions, interdisciplinary research, and systems thinking are probably more relevant than they were four decades ago, given how complex agricultural and food issues have become.
