About this event
Didier Zúñiga is an assistant professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Alberta. His research is oriented towards learning from and engaging with alternative ways of relating to the multiplicity of beings, ecosystems, and interconnected webs of life on Earth. More precisely, he aims to extend ethics and politics beyond conventional understandings of ‘the human,’ and thus to deparochialize and to ecologize political thought.
