Über einen ethnografischen Zugriff untersucht Thorsten Gieser komplexe Verflechtung von Natur Gesellschaft im Anthropozän. Seine These: konfrontieren uns einem affektiven Rewilding stoßen damit Prozess an, als mehr-als-menschliche neu zu denken. Er zeigt Wege einer (friedlichen) Koexistenz auf, schlägt dazu ein komplexes Verständnis Wölfen affektive Akteure vor begreift somit das Wolf-Mensch-Verhältnis radikal neu.

Empathy Beyond the Human. The Social Construction of a Multispecies World

Ethnos, Год журнала: 2022, Номер unknown, С. 1 - 22

In Namibia, Damara pastoralists share the environment with many beings including elephants, tricksters, and winds. While importance of other-than-human subjectivity is well established, its methodological, epistemological, ontological challenges are less settled. To address them, we combine expertise from anthropology philosophy to ask how this world becomes what it is, using Edith Steins's notion empathy (Einfühlung) as a theoretical guide. This allows us show people use understand different 'others' experience world. We identify basis for in 'pre-reflective other-awareness', which amounts implicit bodily awareness other's presence, influence on situation oneself. At same time, differs, only those other-than-humans whom fully empathise add perspectives that build an intersubjective reality any other-perspectives would not exist.

Insights on human−wildlife coexistence from social science and Indigenous and traditional knowledge

Conservation Biology, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 39(2)

Abstract Much work on human−wildlife conflict focuses safeguarding wildlife from humans and vice versa, protecting humans, their crops, livestock, property wildlife, mitigating negative, sometimes lethal encounters. The emphasis is conflict, a framing that reinforces human−nature dualisms instills the notion of wild animals as adversaries. Although interactions are they can also be neutral, coadaptive, mutually beneficial. They demonstrate coexistence. Conservationists have tended to overlook or simplify such relations. either failed define coexistence characterized it outcome externally driven conservation strategies. Conflict has been perceived norm, with distant ideal. This way seeing ignores many ways people coexisted coadapted in multispecies landscapes for generations. We encourage greater attention Indigenous traditional experiences knowledge, how which includes negative conflict. Scholars geography, anthropology, animal studies, philosophy, ethnography offer insights into paying reshape understanding decenters actively supports ethical conservation.

Abstract Feminist and multispecies anthropologies have decentered those most visible to appreciate the perspectives of othered in society—but also better understand society at large. This article goes beyond decentering human toward another analytical focus: species dyad. Building on previous work gender–species intersectionality ethnography, as well drawing a set five ethnographic fieldwork studies involving gendered relations between humans, cattle, horses three continents, this offers conceptualization triad by outlining theory. entails acknowledging sets relations: (1) power relation biology; (2) intersecting humans (such gender ethnicity local categories); (3) humans’ organization nonhumans into intraspecies categories (by for example sex, breed, age (4) nonhumans’ own relations; (5) groups other (including subgroups). By situating intersectionality, shows how intersect within across with consequences individuals all involved. Multispecies can thus be interest even scholars primarily interested humans.

The research project discussed here used artist-led workshops to enable people from marginalised groups explore and communicate their relationships with nature landscapes. Aligning multisensory multispecies methodologies, five took place in England's north-west, which participants excluded communities co-produced creative works representing sensorial responses those environments. Drawing on participants' experiences of these workshops, the resulting works, affordances location-specific activities as a means facilitating connection local landscapes are examined, opportunities that methodologies offer enabling disadvantaged engage debates about landscape use. Participants benefitted greatly project, enabled small steps towards involving However, challenges remain for decision-making more equal distribution power amongst humans other species whose interests may be overlooked.
