From an affective focus, Henrike used concepts from critical theory and Freudian psychoanalysis and delved into the workings of neoliberal exploitation and colonial histories to argue that the work of mourning, as formulated by Freud, could offer a useful way to approach the overpowering challenges posed by climate crisis.
