图书简介
Concerns about the exploitation of limited resources, optimum development trajectories, and climate change draw attention to the temporal horizons of our environment. Environmental Futures is a curated collection of essays that explores different ways of knowing the future and how these futures shape contemporary social worlds. Encompassing a range of detailed case studies, from ice melting in Antarctica to coal mining in Bangladesh, flooding in Colombia to climate modelling in Egypt, the collection approaches prognosis as a cultural, political, and material process. Through rich ethnography, the papers reveal the ways in which authority and expertise may be reinforced, circumscribed, or contested in the process of making a prediction and its aftermath. Speaking to a matter of topical concern, and to important current debates within anthropology on the production of knowledge and society-environment interactions, Environmental Futures offers novel insights on how and why futures come to be significant in the present.
