Turning Livelihood to Rubbish? : The Politics of Value and Valuation in South Africa’s Urban Waste Sector
- 2021

Ingår i: African Cities and Collaborative Futures. - Manchester : Manchester University Press. ; , s. 97-120

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We will discuss our experience of researching solid waste management politics in South African cities, in particular Cape Town, Johannesburg, and Ekurhuleni. The title of our project – Turning Livelihoods to Waste? – was designed to raise a serious of questions about ongoing trends in the waste sector and the implications. South African household waste management operates under a paradigm of cooperative governance where authority is distributed across various scales of government, business, and society. Recent efforts to expand, improve, and formalize solid household waste management and recycling initiatives have implications for those who currently work with waste - particularly for informal waste pickers or reclaimers, who do much of the primary work with waste in the global south. Despite promises of green economic development and job creation, many people working with waste in South Africa work are subjected to precarious and difficult work conditions or experience new uncertainties and vulnerabilities which threaten existing livelihood strategies. In turn, there are serious questions about whether waste workers should be expected to work in dangerous conditions, and what sorts of alternate arrangements may be more just and more ecologically sustainable.

Fossilfri och tillgänglig transport och mobilitet
- 2021
-
Rapport (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Rapporten presenterar 2020 års verksamhet inom det gemensamma vetenskapliga rådet mellan Stockholms stad och KTH. Rapporten sammanfattar rådets arbete kring temat "Fossilfri och tillgänglig transport och mobilitet" som utgick från stadens "Klimathandlingsplan 2020–2023." Den tydligaste strategiska perspektivet som rådet lyft fram är den kring rådighet; att Klimathandlingsplanen fokuserar på bränsleomställning där staden har svag eller ingen rådighet, samtidigt som de områden där staden har tydlig rådighet (till exempel stadsplanering) hamnar i skymundan. Flertal vägar framåt lyfts fram för att gå vidare.

Ruptured Times : Advances in Visual Environmental Humanities
- 2021
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- This first issue of Annals of Crosscuts includes eleven richly textured films that speak from the growing environmental humanities with strong intent and originality. The films speaks to the theme of "Ruptured Times" and forms a testimony to the integrative ambitions of the environmental humanities. The contributors come from a range of disciplines, schools and practices including artistic research, urban and architectural studies, social movements of the urban south, political ecologies of water, studies of mining legacies, decolonial performance aesthetics, science studies and ethnographies of conservation, toxicity and more-than-human relations. Made in ten countries, at four continents, the films are the final outcomes of a collaborative peer-review process that started in the first half of 2019, screened at the Crosscuts festival in late 2019 and published as a film-based special issue at Zenodo, CERN, in 2021 with a reflection from chief editor Jacob von Heland.
