Environmental governance and justice through an ethnographic lens

Laura Bullon-Cassis in conversation with Jennifer Telesca on the Research at the Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy podcast

The second season of the Research at the Albert Hirschman Centre on Democracy podcast returns with an episode putting host Laura Bullón-Cassis, Postdoctoral Researcher at AHCD, in conversation with guest Jennifer Telesca, Associate Professor of Environmental Governance in the Department of Geography, Planning, and Environment at the Nijmegen School of Management of Radboud University, the Netherlands. 

Together, they dive into the heart of environmental justice and governance through an ethnographic lens. This episode unpacks the intersections of global ocean governance, human-environment relationships, and the politics of extinction. It looks at the choices ethnographers make when embarking on new research projects, particularly when studying international diplomacy, and examines the role of ethnography in shedding light on the nexus between environmental, economic, and political concerns.

Join us for a deep dive into how ethnography enriches our understanding of environmental justice and governance.
