ANTC55H3: People and the Environment: Approaches to a More-than-Human World

This course introduces students to anthropological perspectives on what is usually referred to as the environment. We will explore ethnographic descriptions of different ways that humans and non-humans live together. Topics include: how do hunting-based collectives see their relation to animals and the forest? What is environmental racism and what does it reveal about race and segregation? What is the relation between Indigeneity and conservation? What is the relation between the human mind and ecology?
