Book Description
En la tradición del fulgurante Manifiesto Comunista, los autores de este libro afirman que un espectro acecha al mundo: el ecologismo. Sin embargo, a diferencia de lo que sucedía hace más de un siglo, ese fantasma no convoca multitudes orgullosas detrás de eslóganes inspiradores. Las preocupaciones ecológicas –el clima, la energía, el acceso al agua, la biodiversidad– están en todas partes y voces de alarma nos taladran la cabeza desde hace décadas anunciando la catástrofe inminente. Pero en vez de traducirse en entusiasmo y movilización, generan angustia, vergüenza, culpabilidad, o incluso irritación frente a lo que se percibe como una "ecología punitiva" que objeta el crecimiento y, por eso, parece pura limitación o retroceso. Sería fácil explicar esta parálisis invocando las campañas de desinformación, el poder de los lobbies, la inercia de las mentalidades, aunque nada de eso impidió nunca que millones de activistas se lanzaran con energía a sus causas. Con gran potencia conceptual, programática y literaria, Bruno Latour y Nikolaj Schultz sostienen que la falta de reacción obedece a razones más profundas. ¿Cómo podría la ecología política pretender movilizar a las multitudes "hacia adelante", fiel a las tradiciones progresistas, cuando lo que cuestiona es justamente el progreso y el imaginario de la producción a cualquier costo? ¿Cómo persuadir de un proyecto que tiene en su centro las condiciones de habitabilidad del planeta si nuestro aparato mental, moral, organizacional, jurídico, está asociado al desarrollo? Para esa tarea, llaman a constituir una nueva clase ecológica, un sujeto colectivo capaz de articular luchas hoy dispersas y dar, desde cero, la batalla cultural por la hegemonía. El enorme desafío es buscar e instalar una narrativa que, en vez de sembrar pánico y hacer bostezar de aburrimiento, configure un horizonte común y un futuro posible.

Down to Earth
Author: Bruno Latour
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1509530592
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
The present ecological mutation has organized the whole political landscape for the last thirty years. This could explain the deadly cocktail of exploding inequalities, massive deregulation, and conversion of the dream of globalization into a nightmare for most people. What holds these three phenomena together is the conviction, shared by some powerful people, that the ecological threat is real and that the only way for them to survive is to abandon any pretense at sharing a common future with the rest of the world. Hence their flight offshore and their massive investment in climate change denial. The Left has been slow to turn its attention to this new situation. It is still organized along an axis that goes from investment in local values to the hope of globalization and just at the time when, everywhere, people dissatisfied with the ideal of modernity are turning back to the protection of national or even ethnic borders. This is why it is urgent to shift sideways and to define politics as what leads toward the Earth and not toward the global or the national. Belonging to a territory is the phenomenon most in need of rethinking and careful redescription; learning new ways to inhabit the Earth is our biggest challenge. Bringing us down to earth is the task of politics today.
