Announcing another ECPWG event!

Circles of solidarity: Reimagining environment and climate politics scholarship in a crisis-ridden world.

Earth day keynote by Prakash Kashwan, 15.00-16.30 22nd April. @pkashwan.bsky.social

Online - free - register here: www.bisa.ac.uk/events/circl...
In this Earth Day Keynote, Prakash Kashwan invites collective thinking on how to build scholarly communities that foster rigorous exchange and learning without promoting celebrity culture or reinforcing structural oppressions. To do so, Kashwan unpacks the somewhat counter-intuitive entanglements between the oppressive hold of crass positivism and a variety of depoliticized counter-responses that tend to flatten questions of scale, materiality, and politics of representation. In these responses, violent silences are replaced by rhetorical rejection of catchy abstractions of capitalism, coloniality, and (western) science. Such fragmentation of progressive responses is owed, in part, to ontological and epistemological differences between social sciences and humanities. Yet, we must guard against relying solely on counterarguments that stand across a convenient epistemic chasm from the dominant modes of research, analysis, and policymaking.

This is a must read for anyone who is trying to understand what it will truly take to transition India away from coal.

About a year and half ago, @sandeeppai.bsky.social , Suravee Nayak, Sree Harica and I started putting together a review article for WIRES Climate Change on India's complicated relationship with its coal industry.
