本文考察了英国食品系统中参与者使用供应链映射来预测有问题的未来。供应链制图作为一种预期做法是对最近食品恐慌的回应，该恐慌加剧了人们对供应链中流通食品的安全性、质量和真实性的担忧。我们对这组新颖的映射实践的分析是基于它们所提供的供应链的可见性，以及这些供应链是如何生成的，或者如何将其作为对象和过程与未来的问题联系起来的。作为对象的供应链地图可能会引起未来的意外和不确定性，但它们也可以证明风险的责任，或者是分配和确保未来问题的责任的一种手段。将映射视为一个过程，既强调了映射供应链的困难，也强调了使用供应链映射来为潜在的未来问题提供形式所涉及的实际内容。我们将这两个过程都描述为导航，基于创建和读取“路标”，这些路标允许将风险食品的未来绘制为空间和时间的轨迹。供应链地图描述了一个过程以及一组空间关系，用这些地图导航未来是一项需要技巧的任务，需要积累关于食品风险的知识，并学习识别供应链地图的时间和空间。我们的分析强调了那些没有被地图显示出来，但通过参与地图绘制的人呈现出来的东西，在地图的预期用途中与被显示出来的东西一样重要。地图是理解充满不确定性和权力关系的高风险食物链未来的更广泛过程的一部分。
This paper examines the use of supply chain mapping by actors in the UK food system to anticipate problematic futures. Supply chain mapping as an anticipatory practice is a response to a recent food scare that has reinforced concerns about the safety, quality, and authenticity of foodstuffs circulating within supply chains. Our analysis of this novel set of mapping practices is based around the visibility of the supply chain that they offer and the ways in which this is generated or made to relate to future problems as both objects and processes. Supply chain maps as objects can induce surprise and uncertainty over the future, but they can also demonstrate responsibility for risk or be a means of allocating and assuring accountability for future problems. Looking at mapping as a process highlights both the difficulty of mapping supply chains and what is actually involved in using supply chain maps to give form to potential future problems. We characterise both of these processes as navigational, based on creating and reading “signposts” that allow risky food futures to be plotted as trajectories in space and time. Supply chain maps describe a process as well as a set of spatial relations, and navigating futures with these maps is a skilled task involving accumulated knowledge about food risks and learning to recognise supply chain maps as encompassing time and space. Our analysis highlights how things not made visible by the map, but present through those involved in the mapping, are as important in its anticipatory use as the things made visible. Maps are part of a wider process of making sense of risky food chain futures that is filled with uncertainty and power relations.
