Gökçe Günel is an Associate Professor in Anthropology at Rice University. Her latest book Spaceship in the Desert: Energy, Climate Change and Urban Design in Abu Dhabi (Duke University Press, 2019) focuses on the construction of renewable energy and clean technology infrastructures in the United Arab Emirates, more specifically concentrating on the Masdar City project. She is working on a second book project provisionally titled All of the Above: A Global Future of Energy. This book seeks to criticize the unilinear logics of the energy transition narrative by studying the emergence of a Turkish-built floating power plant in Ghana. Dr. Günel co-authored “A Manifesto for Patchwork Ethnography” (2020), and co-leads Patchwork Ethnography.
