Oil and Anthropology 石油和人类学 Abstract: In addition to its established interest in the relationships among states, corporations, and communities near extraction sites, recent anthropological and allied interdisciplinary interest in oil extends to encompass pipeline infrastructures, financial and commodity markets, reserve estimates and calculations, international legal battles, and the creation of geological, environmental, and petrochemical knowledge. This review suggests that, across these issues and around the world, two analytic issues have emerged as topics of special interest: temporality and materiality. The former includes the ways in which the oil complex shapes senses of cyclical boom and bust, of acceleration and deceleration, and of past, present, and future. The latter includes the ways in which humans encounter, transform, and represent various qualities and properties of oil as a substance. 摘要:除了对各国家、企业和石油开采点附近社区之间的关系已有的兴趣,近期人类学和多个学科对石油的兴趣延伸到了包括管道基础设施、金融和大宗商品市场、储备的估计和计算、国际法律纠纷以及地质、环境、化工知识的产生。本回顾认为,对于世界各地的这些问题,两个分析议题已成为特别感兴趣的话题:时间性和物资性。前者包括石油产业加速地或减速地改变过去、现在和未来的经济周期性繁荣和破灭的方式。后者包括人类发现、变换和表示作为一种物质的石油的质量和属性的方式。 作者: Rogers, Douglas 编者: Brenneis, D; Strier, KB 来源:ANNUAL REVIEW OF ANTHROPOLOGY, VOL 44 丛书: Annual Review of Anthropology 卷: 44 页: 365-380 出版年: 2015 (责任编辑:admin) |
