日本語
本稿は、東アフリカの牧畜地域で拡大する自主的炭素市場を事例に、炭素プロジェクトと農業変容の関係を分析する。Bernsteinの「三つの問題系」に基づき、「隔離による生産」「隔離による蓄積」「（反）隔離政治」の三概念を提示し、炭素プロジェクトが牧畜社会の政治経済・社会生態的プロセスとどう交差するかを示す。
English
This article examines the relationship between carbon projects and agrarian change in pastoral rangelands, using the voluntary carbon market in East Africa as a case study. Drawing on Bernstein's 'three problematics' of agrarian studies, it develops three concepts—'production by sequestration,' 'accumulation by sequestration,' and '(anti-)sequestration politics'—to capture the political-economic and socio-ecological processes associated with carbon projects and their intersection with pastoral agrarian change.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Carbon markets are rapidly expanding, driven by global demand for carbon credits. Existing agrarian studies research has examined how strategies for responding to climate change, including carbon offsetting projects, may usher in a new phase of agrarian transition. However, this research has primarily focused on forest and agriculture offsetting projects. In this article, we examine the relationship between carbon projects and agrarian change in pastoral rangelands. Informed by Bernstein’s ‘three problematics’ of agrarian studies and using the voluntary carbon market that is rapidly expanding across East Africa’s rangelands as a case study, we develop three concepts to guide future research: ‘production by sequestration’; ‘accumulation by sequestration’; and ‘(anti-)sequestration politics’. Together, these concepts capture the political-economic and socio-ecological processes associated with carbon projects in rangelands and how these intersect with agrarian change in pastoral societies. While grounded in empirical research from East Africa, the insights provided have wider relevance given the growth of carbon markets in pastoral rangelands globally. This article also advances a broader, growing body of research on the ecological agrarian question, showing how ecologies – and, in this case, socio-ecological processes unique to pastoral rangelands – shape how agrarian trajectories unfold amidst climate change.
