Abstract
This panel approaches interdisciplinarity from a broad range of perspectives, including environmental governance, climate politics, botanics, cybernetics, and science history. Are there commonalities in how we engage interdisciplinarity, and how do we consider its methodological challenges?
This panel will be chaired by Þóra Pétursdóttir, and is part of the symposium “Transdisciplinary in the Environmental Humanities”.
