This piece by Ernesto van Peborgh is more or less where I am at on all this - #RegenerativeAnthropology and all. One particular point I liked: he uses the term #Metacrisis instead of #polycrisis, to capture that it’s all one big crisis. I agree, it’s better. Will use it too from now on
(And yes, it’s on Substack. I didn’t put it there. I am aware Substack is part of the problem. Feel free to just not open it).
#AcademicVenting 🧵#Redundancy But by yesterday afternoon I somehow turned a corner; I am beginning to work out strategies for being an environmental anthropologist in my own right, even without institutional backing. I may have a new book contract; a small consultancy for the RSPB; and some teaching for the wonderful New School of the Anthropocene. No huge earners but all really helping psychologically right now. Here’s to #RegenerativeAnthropology!

Here is a recording of Roundtable 1 of the #AnthropologyAndDegrowth workshop, with Ieva Snikersproge and Ritu Verma. My talk (together with Peter Sutoris and Tobias Mueller) is about the critical role we feel #Anthropology can and should play in the transformation we need now, and the ways it needs to change in order to play this role. #RegenerativeAnthropology #PolyCrisis #Degrowth #ClimateDiary #ClimateCrisis
@priscillaharing really good short #SolarPunk clip - thanks for sharing! So much in here, #UrsulaLeGuin’s #TheDispossed, Giorgio Kallis, etc etc. And yes, William Morris ❤️. Will use it for teaching
One thing i am always struck by as an anthropologist: so much of what we need now already exists outside capitalist modernity- it doesn’t all have to be newly invented. Am wrtiing a paper about this just now in fact! #RegenerativeAnthropology
