Programma

Embark on an exploration of the possibilities and challenges that the concept of relationality poses for environmental ethics, health, and politics, all woven around the central theme of 'water' or 'the sea.'

We will first delve into diverse perspectives on relationality and relationships, such as those proposed by posthumanist scholars as well as non-Western philosophies such as Japanese perspectives and Amazonian ontologies. With these varied lenses, we'll investigate how to apply these ideas to contemporary issues such as the pollution of Mar Menor, the refugees crossing the Mediterranean Sea, and Northern Europe's modern colonialism of the South for the North's energy and food production—for example, as illustrated by La Ruta de la Placa. Furthermore, we'll explore the potential of engaging with local (Hispanic and Arab) arts and literature to gain deeper insights.

The detailed programme of the Winter School Water, Relationality, and Ethics will soon be available.
