Jacob Bull

Jacob Bull is a Senior Lecturer at the Center for Gender Studies, Uppsala University, Sweden. His work bridges gender studies, human-animal relations, and more-than-human geographies through interdisciplinary research challenging traditional nature-culture boundaries.

His research critically examines intersections of gender, sexuality, race, and nation with animal welfare, food production, and environmental practices. Bull employs narrative analysis and lively cartographies to explore multispecies entanglements, emphasizing spatial, affective, and material dimensions of human-nonhuman relations in rural landscapes, fisheries, and agricultural systems.

Analysis of Bull's publications reveals dominant trends in multispecies epistemologies and vulnerability patterning, particularly regarding ticks, meat production, and aquatic environments. His work consistently investigates how power dynamics and ethical frameworks operate across species boundaries, with strong emphasis on place-based practices and embodied encounters shaping welfare standards and cultural identities.
