Abstract

This book is about nuclear legacies in Russia and Central Asia, focusing on selected sites of the Soviet atomic program, many of which have remained understudied. Nuclear operations, for energy or military purposes, demanded a vast infrastructure of production and supply chains that have transformed entire regions. In following the material traces of the atomic programs, contributors pay particular attention to memory practices and memorialization concerning nuclear legacies. Tracing the Atom foregrounds historical and contemporary engagements with nuclear politics: how have institutions and governments responded to the legacies of the atomic era? How do communities and artists articulate concerns over radioactive matters? What was the role of radiation expertise in a broader Soviet and international context of the Cold War? Examining nuclear legacies together with past atomic futures and post-Soviet memorialization and nuclear heritage shines light on how modes of knowing intersect with livelihoods, compensation policies, and historiography. Bringing together a range of disciplines - history, science and technology studies, social anthropology, literary studies, and art history - this volume offers insights that broaden our understanding of twentieth-century atomic programs and their long aftermaths.

Abstract

A book full of boxes. A box in itself. An unboxing. This book explores boxes in their broadest sense and size. It invites us to step into the field, unravel how and why things are contained and how it might be otherwise. By turning the focus of Science and Technology Studies (STS) to boxing practices, this collation of essays examines boxes as world-making devices. Gathered in the format of a field guide, it offers an introduction to ways of ordering the world, unpacking their boxed-up, largely invisible politics and epistemics. Performatively, pushing against conventional uses of academic books, this volume is about rethinking taken-for-granted formats and infrastructures of scholarly ordering - thinking, writing, reading. It diverges from encyclopedic logics and representative overviews of boxing practices and the architectural organization of monographs and edited volumes through a single, overarching argument. This book asks its users to leave well-trodden paths of linear and comprehensive reading and invites them to read sideways, creating their own orders through associations and relating. Thus, this book is best understood as an intervention, a beginning, an open box, a slim volume that needs expansion and further experiments with ordering by its users.

Abstract

Was der (europäische) Mensch isst, wird heutzutage nicht zuletzt durch Wissenschaft, Technologie und Markt reguliert. Im Zuge einer »Verwissenschaftlichung« des Alltags sind Nahrung und Ernährung vielfältigen Standardisierungen unterworfen. Dieser Band untersucht anhand empirischer Studien biowissenschaftliche Ernährungsforschung, Präventivmedizin, europäische Harmonisierung und globalisierte Märkte. Ethnografische Zugänge, die Ansätze der Nahrungsanthropologie und Wissenschaftsforschung mit Studien zur materiellen Kultur verbinden, werfen ein neues Licht auf die institutionellen und individuellen Aushandlungs- und Aneignungsprozesse der europäischen Standards zu Ernährung. »Wir haben es mit einem notwendigen und hochaktuellen Band zu tun, der aus der Sicht einer internationalen Kulturforschung des Essens unbedingt zu begrüßen ist.« Gunther Hirschfelder, Bayerisches Jahrbuch für Volkskunde (2012) »Der Band ist äußerst facettenreich und insbesondere denen zu empfehlen, die sich mit den Bereichen Wissenskulturen, Ernährung und Gesundheit beschäftigen.« Anna Palm, Rheinisch-westfälische Zeitschrift für Volkskunde, Band LVI (2011) »Das Buch richtet sich an alle diejenigen Ernährungsinteressierten, die sich [...] professionell oder auch als Laie mit der Thematik auseinandersetzen. Einige Berichte erfordern mehr Vorwissen, andere hingegen lediglich Interesse am Thema. Inhaltlich jedoch sind allesamt auf hohem Niveau und jeder einzelne sehr zu empfehlen.« Kristina Geyer, Gen-ethischer Informationsdienst (GID), 205/4 (2011) Besprochen in: www.umweltjournal.de, 08.11.2010 Humboldt, 17.02.2011 Epikur, 1 (2011), Harald Gschwandtner pro Zukunft, 2 (2011) Technikgeschichte, 79/4 (2012), Karin Zachmann
