This article illustrates the potential of the telecoupling framework to improve causal attribution in land system science (LSS). We shed light on the distinct analytical approaches that have characterized telecoupling research to date, how these can contribute to LSS with new insights, and whether such insights can improve causal attribution. By re...
In land system science (LSS), the globalisation of land use is often understood via trade flows. Fewer studies have explored the power asymmetries and local resistance that shape global connections. Consequently, calls for a deeper engagement with power and agency have been made within LSS. To accommodate this, we engage the ethnographic literature...
This paper examines the newly established mineral markets in Tanzania. These markets aim to ensure tax revenue collection and enhance the transparency of mineral trade within the artisanal and small-scale mining sector. Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in the Geita Region, we show that the enhanced transparency facilitated by these new markets has...

While much of the expansion in Sarawak so far has taken place in state forests (80%), many new plantations are being established...

The Doctoral programme COUPLED is a European wide PhD programme that unites young researchers, senior researchers and non-academic organizations and companies on topics of land-use change, and the globalization of this. Our work covers qualitative and quantitative approaches and span the globe. A major aim is to understand what drives land-use changes in order to transition towards greater sustainability in this domain. With this project we want to keep you informed about what is currently happening within our group.
