DESCRIPTION:‘Ethno-Science’ is a reading group dedicated to pr
 ogrammatic and critical texts on the changing rela
 tionship between scientific knowledge and what is 
 variously called local\, ‘indigenous’ or ‘native’ 
 knowledges. Our starting point is the eighteenth-c
 entury travel instructions that asked naturalists 
 to routinely record indigenous names and knowledge
 . We explore economic botany\, zoology\, ethnograp
 hy\, and other strands of nineteenth-century natur
 al history relying on systematic surveys of nation
 al and colonial territories\, and the eventual con
 solidation of ethno-disciplines in the twentieth c
 entury. The aim is to understand the relationship 
 between reifications and reinterpretations of 'sav
 age'\, 'indigenous'\, 'native' or 'primitive' know
 ledge and corresponding field practices of interro
 gation and interaction with local informants. We a
 re interested in the putative shifts towards incre
 asingly global awareness and calls for the incorpo
 ration of ‘traditional’ knowledge in political and
  scientific discourses.\n\nThe meetings take place
  monthly\, on Wednesdays from 3 to 4pm in 2021-22 
 academic year (7 meetings). All welcome.\n\nPlease
