"The Jaguar and the Orchid: Transnational
Environmentalism in a Mexican Forest."

a presentation by
Dr. Molly Doane

Molly Doane is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Marquette University. She received her Ph D. in 2001 from the Graduate Center, CUNY. She has several publications based on her Ph.D. research in Chimalapas, Oaxaca, including “The Political Economy of the Ecological Native” (in Press, American Anthropologist) and has recently completed a book on the same subject (The Jaguar and the Orchid: The Politics of the Environment in a Mexican Forest). Her current research concerns fair trade coffee circulating between Chiapas Mexico and the Midwest, and is funded by the NSF and the Wenner Gren Foundation. It develops themes explored in the earlier research, including the uneasy merger of “producer” and consumer” based politics in transnational social movements, transnational environmentalism, and the privatization of politics.
