Summary

LAP coordinating editor Claudia Horn (King's College London) joins the pod to discuss the September 2025 issue: Amazon Rainforest and Socio-Ecological Alternatives in Latin America.

What is the Amazon—and how should we understand it beyond dominant environmental, state-centered, or extractivist narratives? Our conversation explores the concept of multiplicity as a way of rethinking the Amazon as a space of diverse social worlds, political struggles, and ways of life. We also examine the forces threatening these worlds, while highlighting the forms of resistance, collective action, and alternative socio-ecological futures emerging across the region.

Drawing on contributions from across the issue, this episode situates the Amazon within broader debates on global capitalism, environmental crisis, and the possibilities for more just and sustainable futures.
