A Changing Climate: How Will the Southwest Survive - Stuart

A Changing Climate: How Will the Southwest Survive
 
CHAIRS: FISKE, Shirley (UMD) and CRATE, Susan (GMU)
 
PANELISTS: KANN, Deirdre (NWS), STUART, David E. (UNM), PASKAS, Laura (Santa Fe Reposrter), NANASI, Mariel (New Energy Economic), MCMAHAN, Ben (CLIMAS), DEBUYS, Bill (Author/Conservationist)
 
FISKE, Shirley (UMD) and CRATE, Susan (GMU) A Changing Climate: How Will the Southwest Survive. Given the growing urgency to develop state and local responses to a changing climate, this panel invites local scholars, journalists, authors and activists to share their thoughts and projections on how a changing climate will affect our lives, families and cultures—and our cities, villages and Pueblos in New Mexico and the Southwest region beyond. How will the Southwest survive? is the critical question that will be put to the panelists, who will describe the landscape, survivability and sustainability, as they see it, given their research, advocacy, and humanistic perspectives. What kinds of strategies, plans, and adjustments (or radical changes) will be needed across the landscape and across institutions? What will happen in New Mexico under conditions of climate change and how can these challenges be addressed?

CHAIKEN, Miriam S. (NMSU) and COMPANION, Michèle (UCCS) Learning from the Locals: The Importance of Community Perspectives in Countering “Expert” Bias in Disaster Response. The field of disaster mitigation has grown and expanded, becoming ever more professional and data-driven, as disaster professionals seek to build resilience in the face of shocks and mitigate against negative impacts. Despite the progress in this field, there is often an implicit bias that the “experts” are best at responding to disasters, with local knowledge treated as folk wisdom. These papers examine the ways in which “experts” sometimes failed to produce the desired response, and where greater reliance on indigenous knowledge systems and “insider” perspectives were warranted.

HANNA, Bridget (Northeastern U) Riddle Me DATA: Science, Anthropology & the Future of Knowledge, Parts I-II. The increasing interdisciplinarity of Big Data science poses new riddles for anthropologists. Originally, disciplinary divisions were driven by the urge to: 1) protect unique epistemologies; 2) foster distinct methodologies, & 3) cultivate specialized knowledge. Today however, disciplinary silos are being eroded by the rise of the data sciences, with their omnivorous appetite for information and relatively agnostic view as to its’ philosophical underpinnings. What does this mean for ethnographic practice, for collaboration, and for justice? How do we ethically work with, within, and with-out Big Data? Stories across environmental, medical, cartographic, judicial and managerial worlds help frame these new conundrums.
