可持续性科学已经在一个本质上现代的框架内出现。我们从讨论这一框架模型的内在矛盾和悖论开始,然后转向一个新的实用主义定义空间,通过多种认识论、语言、研究风格、经验和行动来阐明,所有这些都来自全球公民社会,并定义了各种认知和规范立场和方法。然后,我们提出并探索一种方案,将可持续性与艺术研究和实践、当地农业实践和土著文化,以及最后与“非人类”知识和权利的动物文化有效地结合起来。这些混合体可以鼓励我们放弃现代的分歧和陷阱,并为我们现在的情况进行一种新的集体诊断和实践。
Sustainability science has emerged within an essentially modern framework. We start from discussing the inherent contradictions and paradoxes of this framing model and then move to a new pragmatic defining space, articulated through a plurality of epistemologies, languages, styles of research, experiences, and actions, all coming from a global civil society and defining a variety of epistemic and normative stances and methods. We then propose and explore a scenario in which sustainability is fruitfully hybridized with artistic research and practice, with local agricultural practice and indigenous culture, and, finally, with animal culture for "nonhuman" knowledge and rights. These hybrids can work as encouragements to abandon modern divides and pitfalls and engage in a new kind of collective diagnose and praxis for our present.
