Reshaping the global agricultural landscape: perspectives from Brazil
分析了巴西农业的主要变化及其与全球农业的关联，聚焦制度、全球需求、可持续性辩论和生物能源范式四大驱动力，强调地方与全球变化不可分割。
Abstract This article highlights the main changes observed in Brazilian agriculture and analyzes the connections of the observed changes in global agriculture. My approach to the analysis focuses the main drivers of changes, where institutions play a central role. Three driving forces are are considered: first, the effects of global demand for food, fiber, and energy; second, the sustainability debate; and third, the bio‐energy paradigm. Each driver presents both local as well as global effects. The article does not emphasize the impact changes in Brazil had on the global agricultural landscape but argues that the impacts run from local and global changes, which cannot be discussed separately.
