Cross Diagnosis - Report by Éric Julien

Cross Diagnosis - Report by Éric Julien 

Zigoneshi: I give you, you give me; we exchange.

In the Drôme (France), Kogi shamans and modern scientists find themselves at the focal point of the Earth.

In September 2018, for a "cross-territorial diagnosis" in the Haut-Diois, thirty scientists came to share their expertise and observations with four Kogi shamans. The purpose?

Anthropology PhD Thesis

Anthropology PhD Thesis: Living the Law of Origin: The Cosmological, Ontological, Epistemological, and Ecological Framework of Kogi Environmental Politics at Cambridge University.

This study, published in 2017, is based on 2 years of field work with the Kogi and especially on several learning sessions with a few Mamas. It is the beginning of a long-term collaboration to help them better convey and explain the importance of the Sierra Nevada and of their traditions to non-Kogi audiences by establishing a conceptually more solid bridge of communication. In other words, the author follows the conviction that to better understand Kogi ecology, it is necessary to contextualize it within their whole cosmology as a complex way of being based on knowledge.
