  Land grabbing vs land defenders

  Dec 16, 202451 minS2

  <p>There have long been inequalities in access to and control over land and natural resources. However, with factors such as the increased commodification of land, globalisation, and the power of transnational corporations, the phenomenon of land grabbing has been on the rise. Land issues can be a driver of armed conflict and also can be prevalent during contexts of armed conflict and heightened militarisation. Land grabbing has impacted communities’ ability to sustain their livelihoods and cultural practices and, in some cases, has also harmed the environment by contributing to pollution and carbon emissions. Communities who push back against these de...

  Part 1: Petrobromance* and Nuclear Priesthood: How are the fossil fuel and nuclear industries connected?

  Dec 16, 202435 minS2

  <p>This episode is the first of two episodes which dive into the connections between the nuclear and fossil fuel industries. Fossil fuels have been the engine behind the growth of modern capitalism, and have driven economic expansion, colonial and imperial exploitation, and industrialisation. This has come at a profound cost, namely, the potential livability of the planet for current and future generations of humans and other species. Meanwhile, there are few developments that are more reflective of the inherent violence and inhumanity of the global geopolitical order than nuclear weapons. The same states that have fueled the slow burning...

  Part 1: Let's talk about Military Spending

  Dec 16, 202447 minS2

  <p>Since its foundation WILPF has called for decreased military spending with an eventual abolishment. Over a hundred years later, the world’s military spending shows new record highs. In 2023 it increased for the ninth consecutive year, reaching a total of $2443 billion and we see new trends. For example, as a result of the war in Ukraine 39 of 43 countries in Europe increased their military expenditure in 2023 and states that traditionally have been prioritising social welfare are now joining the arms race allocating funds from social welfare to military activities. This episode consists of two parts. In this part one we lo...
