摘要

关于投机性知识如何有助于展望可持续未来的学术研究正在蓬勃发展。但人们较少关注作为推测性知识的政治理论与这些学术讨论相关的具体方式。本文建议将气候小说作为政治理论来阅读,从而促进这种联系。文章采用四步分析法。首先,文章阐明了气候变化政治参与知识多元化和非殖民化的重要性。其次,文章引入了生态政治想象的概念,以捕捉对可持续未来的集体愿景,显示了理论研究工作的相关性。第三,它阐明了将政治理论与气候小说进行对话有助于为未来世界秩序设想替代性生态政治想象的观点。最后,它将鲁滨逊的《未来部》解读为一次政治思维的实验:一种生态政治想象,有助于思考在对抗全球气候治理的殖民逻辑及其基础--欧洲中心主义的普遍主义--时所面临的挑战。该书的主要论点是,将气候小说作为政治理论来阅读,可以为设想公正的可持续未来提供启示。

Envisioning ecopolitical futures: Reading climate fiction as political theory

Scholarship on how speculative knowledges can contribute to envisioning sustainable futures is thriving. There is less attention to the specific ways in which political theory as speculative knowledge is relevant to these scholarly discussions. This article fosters this link by suggesting reading climate fiction as political theory. The article follows a four-step analysis. First, it clarifies the importance of pluralising and decolonising the knowledges through which climate change is engaged politically. Second, it introduces the concept of ecopolitical imaginary to capture collective visions for sustainable futures, showing the relevance of the theorising endeavour. Third, it elucidates the idea that placing political theory and climate fiction in dialogue can help envisage alternative ecopolitical imaginaries for future world ordering. Finally, it reads Robinson’s Ministry for the Future as an experiment in political thinking: an ecopolitical imaginary that helps to think through the challenges involved in countering the colonial logic of global climate governance and the Eurocentric universalism underpinning it. The overarching argument is that reading climate fiction as political theory offers insight into envisioning just sustainable futures.
