CHLOE AHMANN

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Anthropology at Cornell. Much of my work is set in Baltimore, and considers what efforts to think and enact environmental futures look like from the sedimented space of late industrialism. I am also beginning research on ecofascist sentiments in the United States, and the dark utopian visions that sustain them. This website includes links to my recent writing as well as background on my research and teaching. 

 

For the latest writing, see a special collection I co-edited on “Fieldwork Confessionals,” recently published in American Anthropologist, “Uncertainty in Motion,” a new research article in Cultural Anthropology, and “Curtis Bay Residents Deserve a Coal-free Future,” a recent op-ed in the Baltimore Sun.
