Socio-spatial and environmental (in)justice and citizenship in rural areas of the global South: A comparative perspective
The research I will pursue with colleagues at UMR-SENS is a comparative exploration of how a sense of justice is conceptualized and mobilized, and how justice may be achieved or denied in diverse contexts in the global south. Starting from the observation that representations of the just and the unjust, the equitable and the inequitable, vary greatly from one social context to another, we propose to examine the social, spatial and political relations that shape the framing of demands for justice, the modes of expression of feelings of injustice, and forms of mobilisation against injustice that deploy diverse institutions, practices, and forms of knowledge.
Collaborations scientifiques
My academic home is the Department of Anthropology, University of Toronto, Canada.
The research project I will pursue at SENS is co-led by William’s Dare, Eric Leonard, Philippe Lavigne Delville. My presence at SENS from September 2023 – June 2024 is enabled by a fellowship from the French Institute of Advanced Study (FIAS) and MAK’IT.
