🐚 We're thinking the ocean through justice, imagination, and critique. Website: ocn.uib.eu If you work on oceans, law, climate, storytelling, or science—we’d love to connect. Thank you for joining us. #OceanCrimeNarratives #OceanJustice #ClimateAndSea #BlueSkyAcademia
We're interested in how narratives shape the perception of justice and injustice at sea. Who gets to define what is a crime in the ocean? Whose voices are heard—and whose are ignored?
Our approach is interdisciplinary. We explore how these problems are represented, understood, justified—or silenced—through: 📚 Literature & cinema 🧪 Ocean science 🧑⚖️ Law & maritime legislation 🌐 Environmental politics & policy 🗣️ Media & public discourse
