Ocean Bordering: hunting, belief, and species interdependency in Nusa Tenggara Timor

Florence DURNEY

University of Oslo

 

In this talk I bring together long-term ethnographic fieldwork in traditional coastal communities in eastern Indonesia with frameworks from environmental humanities, political ecology, and marine science, to examine both bordering and boundary concepts and practices in the marine sphere. In doing so, I examine how conceptual and cosmological overlaps and disconnects impact marine hunters and small-scale fishing communities, and how these impacts reflect larger trends in marine communities globally.
