Personal profile
Research interests
I am a socio-cultural anthropologist specializing in environmental anthropology and political ecology. My research focuses on human-environmental relations, land use and the politics of natural resources. I am particularly interested in tropical horticulture, agrarian change, space and place, territorialization, state formation and the articulation of different value systems. My area of specialization is Melanesia, and I have conducted long-term fieldwork in the Pomio District of East New Britain Province, Papua New Guinea.
