Also known as Stephen Mikesell. I have worked on farms, was trained in anthropology, did research in Nepal on political economy of the countryside there, and been involved in community radio. My focus has been shifting more towards anthropology of agriculture and ecology in recent years, particularly since ecology, or nature's economy, as it was originally known, encompasses everything else. Something which will be coming home with a vengeance. Oh yes, I have been riding bicycles as my primary mode of transport ever since my dad put me onto the seat of one when I was a small child. I have also gotten a feeling that people who talk about environmental change or sustainability actually don't believe in it unless they themselves change how they live in this world (generally it is a prescription offered to others).
