Radioactive Refuge Caring Contaminated Canids

项目摘要

The effects of human political and economic systems on 'Nature' continue to expand and intensify in the Anthropocene -the era in which humans have become a planet-changing force - causing spaces of contamination to proliferate (Tsing,2015). From plastic-polluted oceans to radioactive zones, human ecological disturbance is becoming the norm; anunavoidable consequence of human activity that humans and nonhumans must learn to live with (Haraway, 2016). Ascontamination becomes omnipresent and intergenerational, it can no longer be placed in conceptual opposition topristine Nature. This project, therefore, aims to rethink notions of contamination and care for the Anthropocene as ameans of reorienting environmentalism towards ontologies of Nature more aptly aligned with the shifting ecologicalbaselines that emerge as a consequence of human activity (Castree, 2013; Hobbs et al., 2009). To do this, it will payspecific attention to the human-Canid relations (dogs and wolves) that have emerged amongst conservation biologists,the Clean Futures Fund (an animal welfare NGO), and tourists in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. In addition, the projectturns to the field of literary geographies (Hones, 2015). By analysing a set of sci-fi narratives that depict blightedradioactive landscapes like Chernobyl to speculate on the future of humans and nonhumans in a contaminated world, itwill ask how we might configure relationships of care towards the nonhuman in contaminated spaces.

人类政治和经济制度对“自然”的影响在人类世继续扩大和加强-人类已成为改变地球的力量的时代-导致污染空间扩散（Tsing，2015）。从塑料污染的海洋到放射性区域，人类生态干扰正在成为常态;人类和非人类必须学会与之共存的人类活动的不可避免的后果（Haraway，2016）。随着污染变得无所不在和世代相传，它再也不能被置于与基督教自然的概念对立之中。因此，该项目旨在重新思考人类世的污染和护理概念，将其作为将环境保护主义重新导向自然本体论的手段，更恰当地与人类活动导致的生态基线变化保持一致（Castree，2013; Hobbs等人，2009年）。为了做到这一点，它将特别关注保护生物学家、清洁未来基金（一个动物福利非政府组织）和切尔诺贝利禁区游客之间出现的人与犬科动物（狗和狼）的关系。此外，该项目转向文学地理学领域（Hones，2015）。通过分析一组科幻故事，这些故事描绘了像切尔诺贝利这样的灾难性景观，以推测人类和非人类在污染世界中的未来，它将询问我们如何在污染空间中配置对非人类的照顾关系。
