JOHN VON STURMER AND JEREMY WALKER IN CONVERSATION
Jon von Sturmer has a long and distinguished career in Aboriginal studies. A central participant in many key events and issues including uranium mining in Western Arnhem Land, the Aboriginal Customary Law Reference, and the Wik Native Title Claim. Foundation member of the Wik Native Title Team, and research director/senior adviser to the agreement implementation committee. From 1998-2002, Principal Advisor and Research Director to the AIC and the First Nations Joint Company, advancing Aboriginal interests in the PNG-Gladstone gas pipeline proposal (1998-2002). A long involvement in Aboriginal art and performance.
Jeremy Walker has broad interests in political philosophy, economic history, and the history of intellectual interactions between the natural and social sciences, especially where the life sciences and neoliberal governance interacts, from synthetic biology and global ecological management through to new theories and practices of labour, growth and crisis. This interest extends to modes of resistance, for example as expressed in new religious or environmental justice movements, or the return to political theology, or biotech-art. He has also been active with theweathergroup_U.
