In 1975, the death of dictator Francisco Franco opened the door to a turbulent period known as the "Spanish Transition." In the wake of the 1973 oil crisis, national politics, political violence and social demands were interwoven with international shifts in science and technology and global debates on "energy transitions." In close dialogue with foreign environmental groups, the anti-nuclear movement in Spain deployed a large repertoire of collective action; it ranged from pleasant activities to violent direct actions against nuclear technologies, but also included the making of technological alternatives. Counter-culture activists and counter-experts opposed nuclear energy and promoted renewable energy as two sides of the same coin.This paper explores the pioneering (and networked) initiatives of an anarchist-oriented group called Self-Managed Radical Alternative Technologies, created in 1976, and a group of young engineers who founded the cooperative Ecotècnia, which was behind the construction of the first commercial wind turbine in Catalonia in 1984. The paper focuses on the transnational circulation of grassroots knowledge, the epistemics of resistance, and the development of wind energy technologies as "technologies of protest." Technologies of protest illuminate how the social construction of technology is intertwined with what I call the "social destruction of technology."

1975年,独裁者弗朗西斯科·佛朗哥(Francisco Franco)去世,开启了被称为“西班牙转型”(Spanish Transition)的动荡时期。在1973年石油危机之后,国家政治、政治暴力和社会需求与国际科学技术的变化以及关于“能源转型”的全球辩论交织在一起。在与外国环保组织的密切对话中,西班牙的反核运动部署了大量的集体行动;它的范围从愉快的活动到反对核技术的暴力直接行动,但也包括制定技术替代方案。反文化活动人士和反专家反对核能,并将可再生能源作为一枚硬币的两面来推广。本文探讨了一个名为“自我管理激进替代技术”(Self-Managed Radical Alternative Technologies)的无政府主义组织的开创性(和网络化)倡议,该组织成立于1976年,还有一群年轻的工程师创建了ecot cnia合作组织,该组织于1984年在加泰罗尼亚建造了第一座商业风力涡轮机。本文的重点是基层知识的跨国流通,抵抗的认识论,以及风能技术作为“抗议技术”的发展。抗议技术阐明了技术的社会建构是如何与我所说的“技术的社会破坏”交织在一起的。

Cruise ships are at the same time among the most popular and most controversial means of travel. Photos of oversized ships, passing through the historic center of Venice, have become iconic. This paper explores the background of the debate over cruise ships in Venice. Using research at the intersection of culture and technology, the history of technology, urban anthropology, and social movement theory, it sheds light on how the spatialization of the cruise industry through infrastructures affects Venice and the lagoon. In this paper, I will retrace the development of these interdependencies to show how activists, associations, and citizen campaigners address and perform these entanglements. Protest has turned the ship into a powerful symbol for the infrastructural appropriation and transformation of natural and urban space. Since transportation and traffic routes influence people's everyday lives, it is important to consider their impacts on practices, spaces, and relations, especially in a city like Venice, where footpaths and waterways form an important element of the identity of both the city and its inhabitants. Through its actions, its tacit knowledge of local space, and the explicit knowledge the protest network produces, it both opposes and adds to hegemonic discourses. I argue that the cruise ship has been transformed into a metaphor of global capitalism, which in turn renders it a symbol with transnational impact.

游轮同时也是最受欢迎和最具争议的旅行方式之一。超大船只穿过威尼斯历史中心的照片已经成为标志性的标志。本文探讨了威尼斯邮轮之争的背景。通过对文化与技术、技术史、城市人类学和社会运动理论的交叉研究,它揭示了邮轮产业的空间化如何通过基础设施影响威尼斯和泻湖。在本文中,我将追溯这些相互依赖的发展,以展示活动家、协会和公民活动家如何处理和执行这些纠缠。抗议活动将这艘船变成了一个强有力的象征,象征着对自然和城市空间的基础设施占用和改造。由于交通和交通路线影响着人们的日常生活,因此考虑它们对实践、空间和关系的影响是很重要的,特别是在威尼斯这样的城市,人行道和水道构成了城市及其居民身份的重要元素。通过它的行动,它对地方空间的隐性知识,以及抗议网络产生的显性知识,它既反对霸权话语,又增加了霸权话语。我认为,游轮已经变成了全球资本主义的隐喻,这反过来又使它成为具有跨国影响的象征。

Between the second half of the 2000s and the first half of the 2010s, the prospect of shale gas extraction in Europe at first prompted fervent political support, then met with local and national opposition, and was finally rendered moot by a global collapse in the oil price. In the Europe-wide protests against shale gas and the main technique employed to extract it, hydraulic fracturing (or fracking), counter-expertise played a crucial role. This kind of expertise is one of the main elements of "energy citizenship," a concept recently developed in the field of energy humanities which describes the empowerment of citizens in decision-making processes related to energy issues. This paper provides a socio-historical analysis of the co-production of counter-expertise and energy citizenship in the two European countries endowed with the largest shale gas reserves: Poland and France. In my analysis, concerns over the disruption of the food-water-energy nexus due to possible pollution emerge as particularly important. I argue that the exchange of information between activist groups and NGOs, as well as between activist groups from distant European locations, allowed for the creation of a genuinely transnational and science-based anti-fracking movement.

从 2000 年代后半期到 2010 年代前半期,欧洲页岩气开采的前景先是引发了狂热的政治支持,然后遭到地方和国家的反对,最后因全球油价暴跌而变得毫无意义。在欧洲范围内针对页岩气及其主要开采技术--水力压裂法(或称 "压裂法")的抗议活动中,反专家发挥了至关重要的作用。这种专业知识是 "能源公民权 "的主要要素之一,"能源公民权 "是最近在能源人文领域提出的一个概念,它描述了公民在与能源问题有关的决策过程中的赋权。本文对波兰和法国这两个页岩气储量最大的欧洲国家共同产生的反专业知识和能源公民权进行了社会历史分析:波兰和法国。在我的分析中,对可能出现的污染导致食物-水-能源关系中断的担忧显得尤为重要。我认为,活动团体和非政府组织之间,以及来自遥远欧洲的活动团体之间的信息交流,促成了一场真正的跨国、以科学为基础的反页岩气开采运动。

United States Atomic Energy Commission (USAEC) and UN agencies utilized techniques of power and negotiation to implement radiation exposure regulations. USAEC affiliated scientists' expertise was cultivated while establishing a radiation protection regime based on classified experiments. World Health Organization (WHO) leadership sought to manifest a human right to health, including a right to protection from radiation contamination. The careers of a few technical experts and interagency UN correspondence shows how American risk models of radiation regulation traveled and ultimately inhibited WHO attempts to frame radiation as a public health threat. The USAEC and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) navigated WHO's way of perceiving radiation with technical experts and bureaucratic and legislative means. This paper shows the underpinning at the UN of competing models of radiation regulation, one state centric and the other, an individual right to health. This narrative provides insights into the nature of the UN's current conceptualization of radiation regulation and argues for further research into UN, radiation, and human rights history.

美国原子能委员会(USAEC)和联合国机构利用权力和谈判技巧来实施辐照法规。美国原子能委员会下属科学家在建立基于机密实验的辐射防护制度的同时,也培养了自己的专业知识。世界卫生组织(WHO)领导层试图体现人类的健康权,包括免受辐射污染的权利。一些技术专家的职业生涯和联合国机构间的通信显示了美国的辐射监管风险模式是如何传播并最终抑制了世卫组织将辐射视为公共健康威胁的尝试。美国辐射委员会和国际原子能机构(IAEA)通过技术专家和官僚立法手段,引导世卫组织对辐射的认知方式。本文展示了联合国内相互竞争的辐射监管模式的基础,一种是以国家为中心,另一种是个人健康权。这一叙述深入揭示了联合国当前辐射监管概念的性质,并主张进一步研究联合国、辐射和人权历史。

The acquisition of a nuclear power reactor from the North American company Westinghouse in 1964 not only brought atomic practices and knowledge to Spain but also introduced new methods of industrial organization and management, as well as regulations created by organizations such as the US Atomic Energy Commission (US AEC) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). This article analyzes the history of the knowledge, regulations and experimental practices relating to radiation safety and protection that traveled with this reactor to an industrial space: the Zorita nuclear power plant. Within this space, the appropriation, use, and coproduction of knowledge and practices were conditioned by political, economic, industrial and social factors, and by the engineers, researchers and other professionals who contributed expert knowledge. Material held in the Tecnatom Historical Archive-the engineering company that coordinated construction of the plant-is the main source for this work, which delves into the history of knowledge and atomic technologies and adds to the historiography of radiological protection in Spain.

1964 年,西班牙从北美西屋公司获得了一座核反应堆,这不仅为西班牙带来了原子能实践和知识,还引入了新的工业组织和管理方法,以及美国原子能委员会(US AEC)和国际原子能机构(IAEA)等组织制定的规章制度。本文分析了与辐射安全和防护有关的知识、法规和实验实践的历史,这些知识、法规和实验实践随该反应堆一起进入了一个工业空间:佐里塔核电站。在这一空间内,知识和实践的占有、使用和共同生产受到政治、经济、工业和社会因素以及工程师、研究人员和其他贡献专业知识的专业人员的制约。Tecnatom 历史档案馆--负责协调电厂建设的工程公司--所保存的资料是这部作品的主要来源,它深入探讨了知识和原子技术的历史,并为西班牙放射防护史学增添了新的内容。

This paper draws attention to the role of the IAEA in shaping radiation dosimetry practices, instrumentation, and standards in the late 1950s and 1960s. It traces the beginnings of the IAEA's radiation dose intercomparison program which targeted all member states and involved the WHO so as to standardize dosimetry on a global level. To standardize dosimetric measurement methods, techniques, and instruments, however, one had to devise a method of comparing absorbed dose measurements in one laboratory with those performed in others with a high degree of accuracy. In 1964 the IAEA thus started to build up what I call the "global experiment," an intercomparison of radiation doses with participating laboratories from many of its member states. To carry out the process of worldwide standardization in radiation dosimetry, I argue, an organization with the diplomatic power and global reach of the IAEA was absolutely necessary. Thus, "global experiment" indicates a novel understanding of the experimental process. What counts as an experiment became governed by a process that was designed and strictly regulated by an international organization; it took place simultaneously in several laboratories across the globe, while experimental data became centrally owned and alienated from those that produced it.

本文提请注意国际原子能机构在 20 世纪 50 年代末和 60 年代形成辐射剂量测定实践、仪器和标准方面的作用。它追溯了国际原子能机构辐射剂量相互比较计划的开端,该计划针对所有成员国,并让世界卫生组织参与其中,以便在全球范围内实现剂量测定的标准化。然而,要实现剂量测定方法、技术和仪器的标准化,就必须设计一种方法,将一个实验室的吸收剂量测量结果与其他实验室的吸收剂量测量结果进行高度精确的比较。因此,国际原子能机构于 1964 年开始建立我所说的 "全球实验",即与许多成员国的实验室进行辐射剂量的相互比较。我认为,要在全球范围内实现辐射剂量测定的标准化进程,绝对需要一个像国际原子能机构这样具有外交实力和全球影响力的组织。因此,"全球实验 "表明了对实验过程的全新理解。什么才算实验,由一个国际组织设计并严格监管的过程来决定;实验在全球多个实验室同时进行,而实验数据则由中央拥有,并与数据产生者分离。

To standardize dosimetric measurement methods, techniques, and instruments, however, one had to devise a method of comparing absorbed dose measurements in one laboratory with those performed in others with a high degree of accuracy. In 1964 the IAEA thus started to build up what I call the \"global experiment,\" an intercomparison of radiation doses with participating laboratories from many of its member states. To carry out the process of worldwide standardization in radiation dosimetry, I argue, an organization with the diplomatic power and global reach of the IAEA was absolutely necessary. Thus, \"global experiment\" indicates a novel understanding of the experimental process. What counts as an experiment became governed by a process that was designed and strictly regulated by an international organization; it took place simultaneously in several laboratories across the globe, while experimental data became centrally owned and alienated from those that produced it.</p>","PeriodicalId":43143,"journal":{"name":"NTM","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9160083/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78151998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
