This article argues for the importance of integrating histories of enslaved Africans and their descendants—including histories of resistance to racialized power structures—within narratives about the Anthropocene. It suggests that the Black Studies Scholar Clyde Wood’s concept of the “blues epistemology” offers conceptual tools for considering how Black political and intellectual traditions have strived to imagine and create a more livable world amid the entangled crises of racial injustice and ecological degradation. I argue that locating Black political thought within broader narratives of environmental change and economic development illuminates the racial dimensions of current global ecological crises and orients scholarship and political practice toward the spaces in which such thought is being animated today in response to the challenges of the Anthropocene.

AbstractThe target article provides an intermediate account of culture and freedom that is conceived to be curvilinear by treating economic development not as an adaptive outcome in response to climate but as a cause of culture parallel to climate. We argue that the extent of environmental variability, including climatic variability, affects cultural adaptation.

Perkembangan perkebunan kelapa sawit di Indonesia mengalami peningkatan pesat. Dibalik perkembangan pesat komoditas kelapa sawit, bermunculan masalah dan isu negatif mengenai perkebunan kelapa sawit sebagai penyebab kerusakan lingkungan dan peningkatan emisi Gas Rumah Kaca (GRK). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis emisi GRK yang ditimbulkan dari kegiatan perkebunan kelapa sawit dengan menggunakan metode Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). LCA adalah suatu metode untuk melakukan analisis dan evaluasi secara menyeluruh dari dampak lingkungan dalam siklus hidupnya. Tahapan metode LCA adalah goal and scope definition, life cycle inventory, life cycle impact assessment, dan life cycle interpretation. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa emisi GRK yang ditimbulkan dalam kegiatan perkebunan kelapa sawit selama 1 siklus berbeda-beda. Emisi GRK yang ditimbulkan pada fase TM (umur tanaman >3 tahun) menjadi yang terbesar dengan rata-rata 1887,64 kg CO2-eq/Ha, sementara emisi GRK pada fase TBM (umur tanaman 0-3 tahun) sebesar 989,63 kg CO2-eq/Ha. Sumber terbesar penyumbang emisi berasal dari kegiatan pemupukan. Pada fase TM, kegiatan pemupukan menyumbang emisi GRK sebesar 920,22 kg CO2-eq/Ha dengan jenis pupuk paling dominan menyumbang emisi GRK adalah pupuk urea dan MOP yaitu sebesar 369,67 kg CO2-eq/Ha dan 179,56 kg CO2-eq/Ha.

The article describes factors of environmental change that cause the need to form new forms of interaction between economically active market subjects for sustainable development of territories. The authors of the article analyze franchising as one of the most flexible forms of interaction in small business. Modern trends in small business show a gradual merger of the production of goods and their trade with the provision of services. It leads to the necessity to create a fundamentally new mechanism that meets the needs of the modern market. The article proposes a new complex model of franchising which combines all the specified forms.
