Functional stupidity and the modern knowledge condition
Idioms of resilience
BACKGROUND: Resilience has proved to be a versatile notion to explain why people are not defeated by hardship and adversity, yet so far, we know little of how it might apply to communities and cultures in low to middle income countries. AIM: This paper aims to explore the notion of resilience in cross-cultural context through considering the lived experience of internal migration. METHODS: A sample of 30 participants with experience of migration …
How might Indigenous decolonization agendas inform Anthropocene historiography
Many Indigenous and post-development commentators view the hegemony of western conceptions of ‘development’ as profoundly implicated in the Anthropocene’s global ecological crises and underpinned by modernity’s extractivist and anthropocentric worldview and sensibilities. Meanwhile, as Kothari et al. note, secular modernity’s defenders persist in the presumption that modern science affords the definitive account of nature and reality, while the w…

With growing awareness of the urgent need for action on environmental problems, increasing attention is being given to how wisdom traditions and Indigenous cultures might usefully inform and engage with Western scientific knowledge. However, a significant barrier to this for many Western scholars—including environmental scholars—remains the problem of scientism: the assumption that Western science offers the definitive account of nature and reali…
On the need for an ecologically dimensioned medical humanities
Increasing calls from medical professionals and scholars suggest an urgent need for better and more widespread understandings of the ecological dimensions of health. Such calls have included: two recent Lancet special commissions on impacts of climate change on health; and recognition by senior figures from the WHO and United Nations of relationships between human impacts on the natural world and disease pandemics, with some suggesting prevention…
How Might Indigenous Traditional Ecological Knowledge (Itek) Inform Ecopsychology
This article suggests several key lessons ecopsychology might learn from Indigenous traditional ecological knowledge (ITEK). For example, second-generation ecopsychology sought to remove the political radicalism and so-called “political correctness” that had been present throughout earlier versions of ecopsychology. But ITEK reminds us that any such claims to be above politics can only ever be merely rhetorical and are themselves deeply political…
