About the course

Ecology is inherently political. In this course, the 'eco-cosmologies' of indigenous peoples are compared to the ecological paradigms of Western science. Contemporary case studies illustrate ongoing contests for stewardship over resources and as background to discussing modern buzzwords such as 'sustainable development' and debating the Tragedy of the Commons model.
