The violence wrought by climate change, toxic drift, deforestation, oil spills, and the environmental aftermath of war takes place gradually and often invisibly. Using the innovative concept of "slow violence" to describe these threats, Rob Nixon focuses on the inattention we have paid to the attritional lethality of many environmental crises, in contrast with the sensational, spectacle-driven messaging that impels public activism today. Slow violence, because it is so readily ignored by a hard-charging capitalism, exacerbates the vulnerability of ecosystems and of people who are poor, disempowered, and often involuntarily displaced, while fueling social conflicts that arise from desperation as life-sustaining conditions erode. In a book of extraordinary scope, Nixon examines a cluster of writer-activists affiliated with the environmentalism of the poor in the global South. By approaching environmental justice literature from this transnational perspective, he exposes the limitations of the national and local frames that dominate environmental writing. And by skillfully illuminating the strategies these writer-activists deploy to give dramatic visibility to environmental emergencies, Nixon invites his readers to engage with some of the most pressing challenges of our time.
Best!! The narrative of decline and crisis, is making invisible to visible.
评分后殖民视角对生态批评的介入,文本选取和问题关涉都规避了superpower parochialism。The "representational, narrative, and strategic challenges"(2) in the neoliberal and digital age; the environmental dispossessed in the global South multiply burdened by neocolonialism and local state power; writer-activists' aesthetic strategies and the transnational coalition of environmentalism.
评分找到的中英对应很有意思:长臂外交 - American interventionism. 另外作者提到的几个关键词:superpower parochialism, Chimerican Age (中美时代) 都有意思极了。有时间写书评。
评分生态批评的非常好的一本书。
评分比起environmental justice,更关心violence and its representation的问题……下学期就能上作者的课了好紧张!!
