*Mundane energy uses and the need for change: what role for anthropology?*
by
*Nathalie Ortar* who is a senior researcher in anthropology at the
ENTPE-Lyon University. Her research has mostly dealt about the meaning of
dwelling in western societies as well as about the role of mobility. She is
now also researching the role and meaning of energy in contemporary
societies and the consequences of energy transition in daily life as well
as its moral and symbolic implications. New book *Les usages quotidien de
l’énergie. Anthropologie d’une transition en cours*, Pétra (2019).
*The main questions addressed in the lecture are:* What are the challenges
surrounding the use of energy? What does the use of energy tell us about
the ongoing changes? Through an analysis of recent work done on the field
of anthropology as well as of her work she will question the role of
anthropologists in energy transition.
With kind regards,
Aleksandra Lis
