Cassandra Cronin

ERI/PS2 Public Research Fellow

Cassandra Cronin is a farmer, artist, and PhD student in the cultural anthropology program. Her work looks at processes of commoning in U.S. agriculture – the ways farmers contest and create alternatives to commodification and privatization in land and seed systems. She is interested in both the legal and social infrastructures that are creatively (re)invented to allow for other-than-capitalist relations to flourish. Cassandra is a 2025 ERI/PS2 Summer Public Research Fellow.
