Ecological Imaginings

In this guest lecture, Prof. Eileen Moyer, University of Amsterdam, will address the ways that anthropologists might learn to think about or imagine the world through a lens of ecology. The lecture will focus on current limits to anthropological scales relating to temporalities, geographies, topographies and biologies.
