When academic couples clash over ways of knowing nature

My partner studies evolutionary biology and I study indigenous knowledge systems, and we keep having fights about whether scientific or traditional ways of understanding nature are more valid. We're both trying to make arguments for why nature matters but our academic training makes us compete rather than collaborate.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Different epistemological frameworks have created intellectual territorialism rather than complementary understanding.
