Explaining Rural Conservatism: Political Consequences of Technological Change in the Great Plains
Explaining Rural Conservatism: Political Consequences of Technological Change in the Great Plains By Aditya Dasgupta, University of California, Merced; Elena Ramirez, University of California, Merced. Rural areas are conservative electoral strongholds in the United States and other advanced capitalist economies. But this was not always the case. What explains the rise of rural conservatism? This paper argues that technological change transformed not only agriculture but rural political preferences during the twentieth century.

Full circle moments presenting my JMP (“Deforestation as patronage”) in Bolivia during the past month. Thanks to the amazing organizers at the Universidad Católica Boliviana, CIPCA and IBIF, I got to share my work with Bolivian colleagues, and once again learn from their reactions and insights.

In 2024, #Bolivia experienced its most extensive forest #fires on record, with the burned area exceeding the size of Portugal.
In a letter published in @science.org , we highlight how these fires are part of a broader trend of environmental degradation. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
