SUMMARY:“Decomposition as Life Politics”
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dr. Kristina Lyons\, PhD \nAbout the Speaker: Dr. Kristina Lyons is an Assistant Professor of Anthropology and with the Penn Program in Environmental Humanities at the University of Pennsylvania. She also holds affiliations with the Center for Experimental Ethnography and the Center for Latin American and Latinx Studies. Kristina’s current research is situated at the interfaces of socio-ecological conflicts\, science\, and legal studies in Colombia and Latin America. Her manuscript\, Vital Decomposition: Soil Practitioners and Life Politics (Duke 2020)\, was awarded honorable mention by the Bryce Wood Book Award committee from the Latin American Studies Association. She has also collaborated on the creation of soundscapes\, street performances\, photographic essays\, graphic novels\, popular education audiovisual projects\, community radio programs\, digital storytelling platforms\, and various forms of literary writing. \nTalk summary: How does attention to and stewardship of soils point to alternative frameworks for living and dying? Dr. Lyons explores the way life strives to flourish in the face of violence\, criminalization\, and poisoning produced by militarized\, growth-oriented development in the midst of the U.S.-Colombia war on drugs. \nProfessional Page \nRegister for this session
