Rendering Nature Technical: Science, Technology and Nature Politics
Angela Maria Sánchez Alfonso
Kommentar
Nowadays, concerns about environmental degradation, extractivism, climate change, development infrastructure, and land distribution are considered public and political problems to be diagnosed and addressed through the authoritative lens of science to tell us what is happening and what to do. This framing, however, is neither given nor neutral; it is rather a product of societal perceptions of (Western) scientific knowledge as objective and truth-revealing, and technological innovations as horizons for progress. “Rendering Nature Technical” explores: (i) how scientific and technological practices shape nature (its elements, dynamics, relationalities), (ii) how nature governance takes place in the interplay of science, technology, and society, (iii) the co-constitution of socio-cultural, political and economic contexts, and, science and technology, (iv) the effects of these dynamics on power, contestation and resistance in distributional conflicts. By critically examining the influence of science and technology on the governance of human and non-human communities, this course will equip the students with theoretical tools to analyze nature politics and reflective skills about the role of science and technology in the world we live in.
