Content:
This talk will take point of departure in anthropological and interdisciplinary research carried out on water politics and climate change in Peru, and human-environment relations in Northwest Greenland. Through engagement with troublesome relations in these different environments, the talk will open up for a conversation about the tasks of humanities and social sciences in times of increased human-induced environmental change. How do we grapple with the potentialities and limitations of our disciplines to attend to multiple temporal and spatial scales of environmental problems?
About the speaker: Astrid Oberborbeck Andersen is Assistant Professor at Dept. of Learning and Philosophy, Aalborg University, and is currently doing a postdoc at the Aarhus University Research on the Anthropocene project.
