Emergent agroecologies. A pragmatic study of grassroots ecologization of agriculture, from two case studies : the "Peasant Seed Network" in France ; the movement for "natural cheeses" in Europe.
Elise Demeulenaere holds a PhD in ethnobiology / environmental anthropology from the National Museum of Natural History, Paris (2005), followed by a postdoc in science studies. Her work focuses on the knowledge politics on nature, with a concern for the articulation of different scales to understand environmental governance, scientific knowledge, and their possible frictions with the local experiences of people in-their-environments. She has been working for several years on the French farmers’ movement “Peasant Seed Network”, and is now starting a new research project on the contemporary changes of perspective on microbial diversity within the world of raw-milk cheeses.
