Research

My research focuses on questions that emerge from connecting ecological theory to ethics and politics, including debates in posthumanism and more-than-human law. I recently finished my dissertation, 'Rethinking Human and Nonhuman Rights in the Anthropocene: Toward an Ethics and Cosmopolitics of Ecological Responsibility' at the Amsterdam School of Cultural Analysis.
