Space in Common? Property, Waste and Their Colonial Lives in the Cosmos
This article focuses on the politics of use and pollution (due to both light and debris) of the night sky as an environmental commons and discusses the fraught postcolonial dynamics of accessing and occupying orbits. It establishes a dialogue between the political ecology of space assets and the interdisciplinary critical tradition, unearthing the colonial legacies that structure environmental, sociolegal and political relations. This dialogue un…
Space technologies for development? Practicing sovereignty, beyond inclusion
The increasing use and integration of space technologies in International Development projects raises fundamental questions about the ways in which these technologies are produced and applied, for what purposes and what ideas of innovation underpin their knowledge frameworks. With reference to two UK Space Agency (UKSA)-funded projects aiming to create an environmental information system using remotely sensed data, this article considers the poss…
Risk-aware navigation in industrial plants at risk of NaTech accidents
Astroenvironmentalism as SF
The New Space Age is awash with discourses about space colonization and resource exploitation, and these happily coexist with the age-old and curiosity-driven question, “Are we alone in the universe?” Astrobiology addresses this question and, at the same time, codifies knowledge useful for protecting our planet and other celestial bodies from harmful contamination. This article critically examines astroenvironmentalism as discussed within astrobi…
Performing Citizenship
This chapter examines the performative quality of writing by drawing upon speech act theory and literary criticism. Focusing on Arundhati Roy and Mahasweta Devi’s acts of collecting people’s stories and deeds, I explore the subject formation of activist writers as a result of the process of facilitating the passage from oral accounts to written texts. Marginalized subjects and their acts, disqualified from the domain of politics proper, find in l…
The Tomb of Orientalism
This article explores three art exhibitions held in Europe in the last three years to unveil the traces of orientalism informing their conception and organization. ‘Orientalism in Europe: From Delacroix to Kandinsky’ (Munich, 2011), a journey through the formation of orientalist aesthetics, is here analyzed as the opposite double of ‘Migrations: journey into British contemporary art’ (London, 2012). The second exhibition, displaying heterogeneous…
Drugs and Sexual Behavior
This study investigated the association between drugs and sexual behavior in a sample of polydrug substance abusers recruited from several Italian therapeutic communities; participants were 90 polydrug substance abusers (opiates, cocaine, amphetamine, inhalants, marijuana/sedatives or hallucinogens abusers) who were compared with 90 nonsubstance-abusing individuals. Sexual behavior was measured by the Italian version of the Sex and the Average Wo…
The cost of dams
Since the 1980s, the construction of the Sardar Sarovar, a megadam to be built along the Narmada River, has been promoted by the Indian government as an instrument of democratization, potentially supplying drinking water to millions of people. On the other hand, the nationalist discourse on dams as ‘Temples of Modern India’ has been challenged by social movements such as Narmada Bachao Andolan (NBA). Activists and intellectuals have stressed that…
