Biography

Pia Bailleul's work lies at the crossroads of mining anthropology, Arctic studies and science and technology studies. As part of her PhD in anthropology, defended at the University of Nanterre in 2022, she studied the historical evolution of the legal and social framing of soils and subsoils in Greenland, as well as the associated political issues. Since then, she has specialized in the social and legal construction of mineral resources, and in the relationship between global warming and extractive development in the Arctic.
