I am an environmental anthropologist studying the transformation and emergence of ecological systems under late-stage capitalism through ethnographic approaches. My PhD dissertation (see Snowsill, A. 2022. A Tomato of the Floating World: Assembling Inle Lake’s Cultural Ecology) explored these themes through an object-oriented ethnography of tomatoes grown as cash crops on Myanmar’s Inle Lake and their entanglements with ethno-territorial politics, the political economy of tourism, labour politics, and agricultural and environmental concerns. I am expanding work on these topics to other contexts, which includes recent interdisciplinary research into toxicity and pollution in two of Asia’s largest river basins, the Mekong River Basin and Ganges-Brahmaputra River Basin. I am drawn to collaborative research projects and opportunities. I currently teach an undergraduate course in Anthropology and Asian Studies.
