There is a rising interest in environmental anthropology nowadays dues to the ecological crisis of the Anthropocene. Many of crucial actual debates do have predecessors in the almost one hundred years long history of the discipline, but are mostly left behind. The course is an introduction to environmental anthropology and approaches several key schools of thoughts, concepts, debates and examples from the discipline's history. Particular attention is paid to issues concerning political and symbolic ecology. The course follows on Cultural Ecology I.

Zájem o environmentální antropologii (EA) v současnosti enormně vzrostl díky ekologické krizi v čase tzv. antropocénu. Řada aktuálních debat, jež hýbou odborným i veřejným světem, má své předchůdce v téměř stoleté historii oboru, na které se ale často zapomíná. Kurz je úvodem do environmentální antropologie a představí klíčové školy, koncepty, debaty a příklady z její minulosti. Pozornost je věnována zejména politické a symbolické ekologii. Kurz navazuje na kurz Kulturní ekologie I.
