Marina Karides


Marina Karides is a Professor of Geography and Environment. Her work centers intersectional feminisms and decolonial analytical frameworks to address matters of geography, environment, and society. She has developed island feminisms as an approach to address inequalities on islands with published works centering on higher education in Hawai’i and alternative economics and food systems in the Aegean. Her current research focuses on natural wine as a global social and environmental justice movement with field work completed in South Africa, Argentina, and Italy. She identifies as a scholar-activist and her past research has addressed the impact of the World Social Forums and race and ethnicity in the food justice movements.
