LIVESTOCK IN THE LUSOPHONE WORLD – HISTORICAL AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES, 19TH-21ST CENTURIES
Online Workshop, 2-3 October 2023
15h-19h
This online workshop proposes to create a space to debate aspects related to livestock in areas in South America, Africa and Asia that were once under Portuguese colonial rule, but also to discuss the evolving relations between these areas. Acknowledging the different empirical contributions and theoretical discussions that this theme has garnered over the past decades, the goal of this workshop is to bring together insights from areas such as environmental history, anthropology, global history, social history, agrarian studies, the history of health, animal studies and development studies to investigate the evolving role of livestock in different areas of the Lusophone world. The eleven presentations will focus on a narrower or broader time period between the 19th and 21st centuries and engage with analytical approaches from different fields, or with inter or transdisciplinary perspectives.
