          Abstract

          Wolford’s ( 2021) article on the Plantationocene compels us to reexamine the state of agrarian struggles today in relation to struggles within and against capitalism. Although contemporary agrarian movements are relatively vibrant overall, their movement organizations and alliances tend to be sectoral and localized, and plantation workers remain weakly organized. This commentary argues that agrarian struggles can become more relevant if they are better embedded within broader anticapitalist struggles; conversely, broad anticapitalist struggles are better grounded if they are linked to contemporary agrarian struggles. The Plantationocene scholarship validates this point; moreover, scholarship on the Plantationocene can be enriched by engagement with studies on agrarian struggles.

          Wolford(2021)的种植园世文章, 促使我们重新审视农业斗争与资本主义内部和反资本主义斗争的关系。尽管当代农业运动比较活跃, 但运动的组织和联盟往往是部门性的、本地性的, 种植园工人的组织仍然薄弱。本评论认为, 如果能更好地融入到广泛的反资本主义斗争中, 农业斗争会更加引人注目。反之, 如果与当代农业斗争联系起来, 反资本主义斗争会更有基础。种植园世研究证实了这一点。与农业斗争研究的结合, 能够丰富种植园世研究。

          El artículo de Wolford (2021) sobre el Plantacionceno nos exige reexaminar el estado actual de las luchas agrarias en relación con las luchas que ocurren dentro del capitalismo, y en su contra. Si bien los movimientos agrarios contemporáneos son, en general, relativamente vibrantes, sus organizaciones y alianzas tienden a ser sectoriales y localizadas, y los trabajadores de las plantaciones siguen estando débilmente organizados. Este comentario arguye que las luchas agrarias podrían llegar a exhibir mayor relevancia si se incrustaran mejor dentro de las luchas anticapitalistas de espectro más amplio; a la inversa, las luchas anticapitalistas de mayor amplitud estarán mejor fundamentadas si se vinculan con las luchas agrarias contemporáneas. La erudición relacionada con el Plantacionceno valida este punto; aún más, esta especialidad puede lograr mayor enriquecimiento al comprometerse con estudios sobre las luchas agrarias.
