Acclaimed environmental scholar Professor Alice Mah delivered the 2024 Sociological Review Annual Lecture at The Sociological Review's Undisciplining II conference. The event was chaired by Dr Carin Runciman and discussant was Dr Agata Lisiak.
The title of Professor Alice Mah's Annual Lecture was: Deep Time, Intergenerational Knowledge and Socio-Ecological Futures
Adapted from conference programme description:
In our Annual Lecture foregrounding the insights of a groundbreaking academic, renowned urban and environmental scholar Alice Mah argued that the planetary ecological crisis requires sociologists to engage with far wider temporal and spatial scales than current methods allow, across deep time, multiple generations and species.
By stretching sociological imaginations, important insights can be gained from this intergenerational knowledge, particularly for addressing the biodiversity and climate crises. Such insights offer lessons about toxic industries and systemic injustices, socio-ecological tipping points and socio-environmental action, as well as forms of healing. Yet such a commitment requires new research methodologies and interconnections.
Professor Mah’s lecture outlined experimental social-scientific methodologies for researching across deep time, based on emerging research on qualitative complex systems analysis, intergenerational life history research (interviews, archival sources and music), and interdisciplinary collaborations. These methodologies are important for ethical, socio-ecological thinking across long time scales, and for countering short-term business- as-usual assumptions about perpetual growth and expendability. Professor Mah called for socio-ecological futures that are based on values of equality, justice and reciprocity, and that recognise the need to battle systemic social inequalities.
