INJURY: Mapping injury: the embodied, socio-cultural and material sites of political emergence

伤害的概念有多种迭代和表现形式。它可以指出受伤的身体是战争的伤亡。它可以指受到伤害的自尊心或羞辱，作为歧视性做法和“仇恨言论”的产物。它可以适用于对栖息地和环境的破坏，即造成直接和长期痛苦的人类行为。我们常常将这个概念局限于战争的伤亡，然而，这些其他形式对人类生命和福祉也可能是毁灭性的，它们的影响远远超出了它们发生的那一刻。如果我们按照这个项目的意图，从具体的、社会文化的和社会物质的角度来定义伤害，我们就可以在政治上追踪其影响；在政治机构的出现和表达以及这种机构采取的形式和方向性方面，以及在旨在各种缓解、治理和修复的话语和制度结构如何导航和动员方面。该项目将分析和经验的视角放在伤害上，目的是提供一种新的理论，首次使用一种关系理解，将具体经验与社会文化和社会物质动力学的交集结合在一起。利用基于全球南部的案例研究，并反映对身体、居住空间、基础设施和栖息地的伤害，该项目的目标试图揭示：1)伤害的地形和全球纠缠，以及在其生产中被简化的；2)伤害进入政治话语和争论的过程；3)规范和政治上支配伤害影响的结构；以及4)拟议的理论化和经验性调查的伦理影响。该项目的原始贡献来自于它的理论化，因为它是基于关系认识论和本体论，以及它的实证调查，追踪伤害和政治之间的路径，利用定性方法(基于文本、口头和视觉来源)。

The concept of injury has multiple iterations and manifestations. It can point to injured bodies as casualties of war. It can refer to injured pride or humiliation, as products of discriminatory practices and 'hate speech'. It can apply to the destruction of habitats and environments, human actions that produce immediate and long-term suffering. We often confine the concept to casualties of war, yet these other forms can be as devastating to human life and well-being, theirimpact manifest well beyond their moment of occurrence. If we define injury in embodied, socio-cultural, and sociomaterial terms, as this project intends, we can trace its impact politically; in terms of the emergence and expression of political agency and the form and directionality such agency takes, and in terms of how the discursive and institutional structures designed to variously mitigate, govern, and repair are navigated and mobilised. The project places the analytical and empirical lens on injury, with the aim of providing a new theorisation that, for the first time, uses a relational understanding that integrates the intersection of embodied experience, with socio-cultural and socio-materialdynamics. Using case studies based in the global south, and reflecting injuries to bodies, lived spaces, infrastructures, and habitats, the project's objectives seek to reveal: 1) the topographies of injury and the global entanglementsimplicated in their production; 2) the processes whereby injury enters political discourse and contestation; 3) the structures that govern the impact of injury normatively and politically; and 4) the ethical implications of the theorisation and empirical investigation proposed. The original contribution of the project derives from its theorisation, based as it is on a relational epistemology and ontology, and its empirical investigation, tracing the path between injury and the political, drawing on qualitative methods (based on textual, oral, and visual sources).
