About

The Critical Ecologies lab is a group of geographers, anthropologists, and historians at the University of South Carolina working at the intersections of political ecology, environmental history, science and technology studies, economic and political geography, and environmental anthropology. Our interests are broad but united by a shared commitment to bringing critical perspectives to bear on contemporary environmental issues.

We began in Fall 2014 as a faculty writing group, meeting each month to share and discuss our work. In the 2018-19 academic year, we plan to expand our activities with the goal of developing space for faculty and students to interact and gain feedback on their research.
