A rich ethnography of eco-politics in Hong Kong in the late 1990s, as the region shifted to Chinese sovereignty, Ecologies of Comparison describes how ecological concepts of uniqueness and scale resonated among environmentalists, including those seeking to preserve a species of white dolphin, to protect an aging fishing village from redevelopment, and to legitimize air quality as an object of political and medical concern. During his research, Tim Choy became increasingly interested in the power of the notion of specificity. While documenting the expert and lay production of Hong Kong's biological, cultural, and political specificities, he began comparing the logics and narrative forms that made different types of specificityosuch as species, culture, locality, and state autonomyopossible and meaningful. He came to understand these logics and forms as "ecologies of comparison," conceptual practices through which an event or form of life comes to matter in environmentalist and other political terms. Choy's ethnography is about environmentalism, Hong Kong, and the ways that we think about environmentalism in Hong Kong and other places. It is also about how politics, freedom, culture, expertise, and other concepts figure in comparison-based knowledge practices.

想做STS研究的朋友推薦給我,讀完喵瞭個咪瞭…
评分環境議題中的權利意涵,非常有意思。
评分我承認sts有其精到之處。但對我而言這種理論和現實的關係就像浮在雲頂上的王國。作為一個理論愛好者,我覺得作者用這一套理論分析香港挺有意思。作為一個關注香港諸問題的人類學學徒,我想打爆作者的頭。。。
评分讀瞭差不多前四章,主要講的是:圍繞香港環保運動展開的knowledge practice,通過多種含義上對“比較”知識進行的“比較”,作者。。。。喵瞭個咪的其實沒看懂= =。。。
评分知識生産著墨反而不多。更主要的印象是香港的環保運動強烈的嵌入瞭對本土價值的追尋,對單獨的”香港“身份認同的焦慮。不如把主題換成:香港如何在地理和生態的維度構建獨特的香港身份。
