The Territorialisation of Water

This paper attempts to understand the way in which the Western ghats is an osmotic zone which combines the livelihoods of farmers and settlers in new transactions. It tries to see why indigenous people and community interests in cash crops and trade, mediated by the buzz words of organic farming weave together in specific ways. The data shows how tourism and water shortages are complicated by climate change, including the way in which natural borders are compounded by the passage of people across them.

Imperial Networks from the Sixteenth-Century Habsburg House in Constantinople

ABSTRACT | What happens when a multi-lingual and religiously diverse group of men from across the Holy Roman Empire and Habsburg ruled territories live together in a foreign environment? How do these men commemorate their fleeting social networks on paper? How do these networks relate to those they are imbedded in back home? What drives their impulse to collect, create, and curate? This talk introduces a set of fifty personal albums collected by residents of the Habsburg ambassador’s “German House” in Constantinople.
