Marc Brightman

My main interests relate to questions of sustainability at different scales, using ethnography and anthropological theory to rethink established ideas and approaches. My work is grounded in my research in Amazonian indigenous ethnology, global forest governance, conservation and environmentalism, and the (cosmo-)politics of human relationships with the living environment.

I am principal investigator of the ERC funded research project The Hau of Finance, which investigates the rise of green and social finance.
