Episode Synopsis
This bonus content is a reading from Platypus, the CASTAC Blog. The full post by Jacob Weger can be read at https://blog.castac.org/2024/02/anthropology-sts-and-the-politics-of-imagination-in-navigating-socio-environmental-change/. About the post: Imagination is a critical resource in the pursuit of sustainable futures, yet it is often constrained by powerful structural forces and vested interests. Anthropology and Science and Technology Studies (STS) offer unique perspectives and tools that can help identify tacit imaginaries and shed light on alternative ones, opening such discussions to a wider range of shared visions of what is possible or desirable in order to cultivate more inclusive, equitable, and sustainable worlds.
