Описание: We speak of earthquakes, floods, and wildfires as `natural disasters`.

Автор: Nitzan Lebovic, Andreas Killen Название: Catastrophes: A History and Theory of an Operative Concept ISBN: 3110312492 ISBN-13(EAN): 9783110312492 Издательство: Walter de Gruyter Рейтинг: Цена: 117710.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Catastrophic scenarios dominate our contemporary mindset. Catastrophic events and predictions have spurred new interest in re-examining the history of earlier disasters and the social and conceptual resources they have mobilized. The essays gathered in this volume reconsider the history and theory of different catastrophes and their aftermath. The emphasis is on the need to distance this process of reconsideration from previous teleological representations of catastrophes as an endpoint, and to begin considering their "operative" aspects, which unmask the nature of social and political structures. Among the essays in this volume are analyses, by leading scholars in their respective fields, concerning the role of catastrophes in theology, in the history of industrial accidents, in theory of history, in the history of law, in "catastrophe films", in the history of cybernetics, in post-Holocaust discussions of reparations, and in climate change.
