SUMMARY:Fall 2024 Visiting Professor's Lecture in Political Economy
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous Legalities, Pipeline Viscosities: Colonial Extractivism and Wet'suwet'en Resistance



In this talk, Tyler McCreary examines the politics of pipelines on unceded Wet’suwet’en territories in Northern British Columbia, Canada. McCreary showcases how colonial governments and corporations seek to control Indigenous claims and rationalize pipeline development. He interrogates how pipeline regulatory review processes fail to address fundamental questions about territory and jurisdiction in a settler state, and how the Wet'suwet'en continue to resist colonial containments. Analyzing the cyclical movements between resistance and reconciliation, McCreary invites listeners to understand pipeline politics in terms of the foundational conflict between Indigenous and Wet’suwet’en law.
