Segnaliamo la pubblicazione di Environments of Exile: Nature, Refugees, and Representations, a cura di Swen Steinberg e Helga Schreckenberger per Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht Verlage.
The volume presents ten articles, geographically spanning from Europe, the US and Canada to Brazil, Kenya, and Palestine. They are based on a wide array of sources, including autobiographical publications and oral history as well as art in writing, photography, and painting. They analyze climate related challenges refugees have been (and still are) confronted with; they question the settler-colonial contexts refugees from Nazi persecution in Central Europe arrived in, for example in the Americas or Africa; and they address knowledge about nature in the transit situation of forced migration—bodies of mobile knowledge about the environment between translation and ignorance.
