"Anthropocene Frontiers: Colonial Climate Science in Siberia and the Steppe"
Patrick Anthony is an Irish Research Council Postdoctoral Fellow. He is a specialist in the social history of science in central Europe and the World. His forthcoming book, "Unearthed: Science and Environment Across Mineral Frontiers," is an archaeology of environmental sciences assembled through mining industries that linked central Europe to empires in the Americas and northern Eurasia in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. As an IRC Fellow in Dublin, Patrick is pursuing a project called "Anthropocene Frontiers: Colonial Climate Science in Siberia and the Steppe," a study of how settler colonial violence in the marches of the Russian Empire generated knowledge about climate and the human capacity to change it. This project is supervised by Professor Jennifer Keating.
