Cold Rush: territorialisation in revaluing natural resources

Thu

Time Thursday 15 February, 2024 at 15:15 - 16:30
Place CERUM Studion or digitally

What potentials could there be to using the concept of 'territorialisation' to analyze complex ongoing political, economic, and ecological processes? One such process is accelerating climate change, which is rapidly progressing in the Arctic region and will be addressed during the seminar through the scope of revaluation of natural resources.

 

Sari Pietikäinen is a professor in discourse studies at the University of Jyväskylä, who will use her research project ‘Cold Rush’ as a soundboard to explore how territorialisation helps in expanding our focus from essences and layers to movements and connections, as well as moving beyond binaries towards productive interactions between material, discursive, and affective dimensions.

The seminar will be held in english, and participants can join either physically or by signing up for a digital invitation down below.
