Dr Ekaterina Gladkova

Assistant Professor

Department: Social Sciences

I am an interdisciplinary researcher and am currently an assistant professor in sociology. My specialism is in critical understandings of practices, politics and human/other-than-human entanglements in food production. I analyse the existing industrialised food system and draw on an art practice as a method to explore the potential for a socio-environmental transformation.

My research interests include:

- industrial farming and industrially farmed animals (pigs specifically)

- re-imagining the food system through a creative practice

- urban farming

- political economy of food production

- environmental, ecological and multispecies justice
