Show Farmers: Transformative Sentiment and Performance in Organic Agricultural Development in South India
Each year, Culture and Agriculture, a section of the American Anthropological Association, invites graduate and undergraduate students to submit papers for the Robert M. Netting Award. The graduate and undergraduate winners receive cash awards and have the opportunity for a direct consultation with the editors of the journal, CAFE (Culture, Agriculture, Food, and Environment), toward the goal of revising the paper for publication. The submissions draw on relevant literature from any subfield of Anthropology, and present data from original research related to livelihoods based on crops, livestock, or fishery production and forestry and/or management of agricultural and environmental resources.
Andrew Flachs, a Sociocultural graduate student with the Department of Anthropology, will receive the 2015 Robert M. Netting Award for his article titled: Transformative Sentiment and Performance in Organic Agricultural Development in South India. He will be recognized for this accomplishment at the AAAs this November.
