Producing nature-based solutions: infrastructural nature and agrarian change in San Martín, Peru
The concept of ‘nature-based solutions’ has brought together a broad range of actors with seemingly diverse goals. This article, contributing to the forum on climate change and agrarian struggles, argues that these nature-based solutions follow a growing trend to frame the natural world as infrastructure, providing an ethnographic case study of agroforestry and reforestation projects in San Martín, Peru. It shows that as infrastructural nature claims ever more of the metaphorical space of discourse and the material space of landscapes, it becomes not just a new way of producing nature but central to the ideologies and ecologies of green capitalism.
