Anthropology Seminar Series : Precarity and the Pandemic: Talking about Trauma Other events...
Following research into the conditions and experiences of academic precarity, the talk is in response to calls from Australian sociologists and universities to turn our attention to the COVID-19 crisis. This is done by taking seriously the idea, which stretches from experts in the news media to laymen on social media, that many if not all of us are experiencing trauma or will be traumatised by the pandemic. Using social systems theory and cultural trauma literature to guide the discussion, three contexts that have been touched by the pandemic are considered: casual university tutors working from home, a senior-focused not-for-profit operating in Perth, and community building efforts by the International Bateson Institute.
Speaker(s) Christian Mauri, Lecturer, Murdoch University
