Spanish term

expresiones territoriales

Spanish to English Social Sciences International Org/Dev/Coop
And another one from a report conducted in Guatemala on smallholder economy/strategies. The full sentence is: Todos estos trabajos (referring to studies) muestran diferentes estrategias de reproducción de los campesinos y sus expresiones territoriales.

I'm playing with "and their ways of using the land", "territorial manifestations" ?? Nothing's sounding good, and I really don't know specifically what is meant by "expresiones" - it seams so broad...

Thanks very much again!

Thanks very much Jackie. This translation is proving to be quite a learning experience.
Jackie Bowman Mar 31, 2015:
I think you're very close (certainly close enough to be an acceptable translation) with your own suggestion of "ways of using the land". The notion of "peasant reproduction" is widespread in much of the semi-Marxian literature, notwithstanding today's aversion to the word "peasant". It's a matter of the sustainability, the endurance over time, of peasant households that try to persist in the face of the global commodification of agricultural production. I'd go with your gut instinct and render it as "ways of using the land" or something similar.

agree Diana Di Battista : I think "geographical manifestations" is fine here. Sometimes though, "territoriales" just refers to the actual concrete manifestations of a policy, theory, or strategy, as opposed to the theoretical ideas, so "its manifestations" alone may be sufficient.
