About This Podcast

Dr. Nikolas Kosmatopoulos, political anthropologist and founder of the InsurgenSeas project, sets the stage for a new conversation about oceans and politics. Drawing from years of academia and activism across the Mediterranean, he reflects on how the sea, often seen as empty space or a border to be policed, can be reimagined as a site of radical possibility. Why turn to the sea at all? What does it mean to think politically from the waterline? Through stories, historical traces, and theoretical provocations, Kosmatopoulos invites listeners into an oceanic way of seeing: one that connects frontline struggles, defies state control, and opens space for new forms of solidarity.
