Barbara
Glowczewski
Barbara Glowczewski is an anthropologist and emeritus research director at the CNRS, and a member of the Laboratory of Social Anthropology at the Collège de France. Since 1979, she has conducted years of field research in Australia, particularly with the Warlpiri of the Central Desert and the peoples of the Broome region on the northwest coast.
She studies rituals of caring for living things, art, and struggles for social and environmental justice, as well as resistance to extractivism in Australia and France. She has been committed to presenting her anthropological research in innovative and experimental ways to highlight the creative uniqueness of communities and their ways of connecting to the land, which are being reshaped in increasingly uncertain or disastrous contexts.
She is the author of a dozen books, including *Les Rêveurs du désert* (Actes Sud), *Rêves en colère* (Plon/Terre Humaine), and *Guerriers pour la Paix* (Indigène éditions), as well as more than 150 chapters and scholarly articles, and several audiovisual productions. She highlights the reticular, eco-parental philosophy of Aboriginal totemism, the transnational solidarity among Indigenous peoples, the ecosophical relevance of Félix Guattari’s three ecologies, and the need for cross-cutting alliances in the face of the climate emergency (Indigenising Anthropology with Guattari and Deleuze, EUP; Réveiller les esprits de la terre, Dehors) .
