Dear colleagues,
We are happy to invite you to join the new EASA Energy Anthropology Network
<http://easaonline.org/networks/ean/index.shtml> and subscribe to our EAN
mailing list <http://lists.easaonline.org/listinfo.cgi/ean-easaonline.org>.
The network arises from a preliminary meeting called at EASA 2016 and we
are pleased that EASA agreed to accept our proposal for a new network. The
network intends to bring together anthropologists working on any
energy-related topic, and others interested in energy anthropology - anyone
can join the network whether or not they are actually a member of EASA.
In brief, the network's aims are:
- To bring together social scientists and practitioners with common
interest on energy
- To make energy issues more visible
- To propose alternative understandings of energy systems.
- To support independent and critical studies on energy choices.
- To spark public debate, encourage community outreach and feed research
agendas
Two key benefits of the network are
1) that we have this new email list to work with, and
2) we are guaranteed a panel at EASA conferences, and we will be allocated
a slot for a network meeting.
While we look forward very much to EASA 2018 (in Stockholm), we hope also
to use the email list first of all to bring people together, and second to
run email discussions. This should be member-led, but we will be very happy
to facilitate. So please register to our mailing list
<http://lists.easaonline.org/listinfo.cgi/ean-easaonline.org> and join a
vital and growing field of anthropological research and activities.
EAN will be launched with a roundtable at the Energy Impacts
<http://energyimpacts.b.uib.no/> conference in Bergen on February 28th
(*Program

Apologies for the late notice (since we only recently received confirmation
from EASA), but do watch the website for further info and news, and do send
us news for the site.
Further info about EAN will now go primarily to the EAN list, and not to
Electric Anthro - we will do our best to keep their identities distinct.
All best wishes
