本文探讨了如何在性别和气候变化的国际话语目前展开的全球南方,并与早期的性别话语,前往马赛兰(坦桑尼亚)进行比较。通过追溯年长的性别歧视者的家谱,在将(非洲)妇女定位为弱势群体的旅行话语之间出现了惊人的相似之处。本文反对气候变化的女性化:脆弱性的简单化和历史再现沿着性别二进制。性别和气候变化的论述重复了脆弱性和发展的历史产物,导致倾向于为这些论述试图支持的妇女说话,而不是倾听她们的声音。我认为,需要更多的研究来了解女性如何应对气候变化及其新兴话语,而不仅仅是关注“气候变化对女性的影响”。关于性别和气候变化的话语需要从发展和(生态)女权主义奖学金,突出性别的交叉,生产性的层面和代理素质的去殖民和后殖民批评的关键洞察力。将“贫困女性化”和妇女作为“文化的受害者”等类别具体化,应该成为气候变化的警示故事,当权者可以利用这些故事来掩盖更紧迫的问题,如越来越多的土地被剥夺。
This article explores how international discourses on gender and climate change currently unfold for the Global South, and compares this with earlier gender discourses that traveled to Maasailand (Tanzania). By tracing the genealogy of older gender imaginaries, striking similarities emerge between the traveling discourses which position (African) women as vulnerable. This article argues against the feminization of climate change: the simplistic and historical reproduction of vulnerability along gender binaries. Gender and climate change discourses repeat historical productions of vulnerability and development that lead to a tendency to speak for rather than listen to the very women the discourses seek to support. I argue that more research is needed to understand what womendo to livewith climate change and its emergent discourses instead of focusing merely on what “climate change does to women.” Discourses on gender and climate change need critical insight from de- and post-colonial critiques of development and (eco)feminist scholarship that foregrounds gender’s intersectional, productive dimensions and agentive qualities. Essentializing categories like the “feminization of poverty” and women as “victims of culture” should serve as cautionary tales for climate change, which can be used by those in power to obscure more urgent problems, such as increasing land dispossession.
