The relationship between humans and their environments is central to both natural and social sciences, yet the fundamental distinction between 鈥榥ature鈥� and 鈥榗ulture鈥� is a major听reason behind segregating these bodies of knowledge into two distinct听fields. 鈥楴ature鈥� is often utilized as a shorthand for the unchanging laws of existence, the inexorable materiality of being, for inevitability, determinism and teleology.听 As such, the notion of 鈥榥ature鈥� has been challenged by many scholars as a 鈥榮ocial construction鈥�, whereby neither humans nor their environments are ever fully 鈥榥atural鈥� or 鈥榗ultural鈥�, but rather are mutually constituted through a network of complex interactions.
The working languages of the conference are English and Russian.
