Abstract

Our article analyzes interdisciplinary literature within the social sciences on outcomes of environmental cleanups at Superfund, brownfield, and other contaminated sites. By focusing on postremediation sites and outcomes, we expand the understanding of the sociopolitical life of contaminated sites over time. First, we examine the technoscientific practices of how scientists and environmental managers seek to make cleanup outcomes legible and meaningful. Next, we engage with a wider array of litera ture on pollution/toxicity, uncovering circular temporalities in cleanup processes along with continuities in pollution/toxicity and in political struggle. Finally, we examine the social worlds of postremediation landscapes, drawing attention to how cleanups create new relationships among people, history, and nature. In conclusion, we identify areas of opportunity for these insights to inform the conceptualization and evaluation of cleanup outcomes in ways that better incorporate the complex dynamics of postremediation social worlds.

概念化和捕获污染场地环境清理的结果。
我们的文章分析了社会科学中关于超级基金、棕地和其他污染地点的环境清理结果的跨学科文献。通过关注调解后的地点和结果,我们扩展了对受污染地点的社会政治生活的理解。首先,我们研究了科学家和环境管理者如何寻求使清理结果清晰和有意义的技术科学实践。接下来,我们研究了更多关于污染/毒性的文献,揭示了清理过程中的循环暂时性,以及污染/毒性和政治斗争的连续性。最后,我们研究了后调解景观的社会世界,提请注意清理如何在人、历史和自然之间建立新的关系。总之,我们确定了这些见解的机会领域,以更好地结合干预后社会世界的复杂动态的方式,为清理结果的概念化和评估提供信息。
