While the discipline of political science is my formal institutional home, I subscribe to an expansive definition of politics as the study of how power is understood, exercised, and contested across time and space (and acknowledge the words in that definition as concepts themselves in need of query). My work listens for and wants conversation with the rivers and tributaries that flow through and across political science, sociology, anthropology, history, geography, law, philosophy, literature, and poetry.

Quotes by Timothy Pachirat (?)

“Those who ate the meat, she claimed, were only indirectly responsible. I took the opposite position, holding that those who benefited at a distance, delegating this terrible work to others while disclaiming responsibility for it, bore more moral responsibility, particularly in contexts like the slaughterhouse, where those with the fewest opportunities in society performed the dirty work.”
― Timothy Pachirat, Every Twelve Seconds: Industrialized Slaughter and the Politics of Sight
