The politics of food, climate, energy, and the yet unfinished work ofending colonialism run square through questions of land. Theclassical agrarian question has taken on new forms, and a newintensity. We look at four dimensions of the agrarian questiontoday: urbanization and labor; care and social reproduction;financialization and global food systems; and social movements.On this 50th anniversary of JPS, we as the journal’s editors invitemore research, vigorous debate, and scholar-activism on theseissues in agrarian politics and beyond. We move into the journal’snext era hoping we might continue to better interpret the worldin order to change it..
