ANTH 50.38 Social Lives of Energy: Energy Systems and their Social Contexts

In this course, we will analyze the cultures of energy systems, focusing on clean energy sources. Using a global case study approach, we will examine how energy systems impact historical, cultural, and political dimensions of life.  Overall, students will integrate how energy systems relate to social equity and climate change politics. One main theme in the course will be energy conflicts involving Indigenous peoples. Studying these conflicts allows us to investigate the multiple ways of being at stake in defining energy futures.
