Text: Andrea Brock, 2020, ‘Frack off’: Towards an anarchist political ecology critique of corporate and state responses to anti-fracking resistance in the UK, Political Geography. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0962629819301192
Format (derived from our highly successful project – the Critical European Studies workshop):
In order to foster a constructive debate, each workshop starts with a brief introduction of the theme and the pre-selected text used to kick-start the discussion followed by a few select expert commentators discussing and enhancing the perspectives developed in the core text from the angle of their own research/activism and in the context of current struggles. This is followed by a workshop-type discussion instead of the conference-style Q&A, in order to collectively advance knowledge, understanding and analysis of the themes raised in the workshop and develop shared ideas for action.
Initial contributions are limited to 5 minutes per commentator.
