The heroes and killjoys of green megaprojects: a feminist critique
通过分析瑞典北部两个地区的三个绿色大型项目,发现这些项目被赋予一种意识形态幻想,将少数“绿色英雄”视为解决气候危机和地区落后问题的终极答案,同时边缘化和女性化反对声音,从而凸显女性主义批判新自由主义意识形态的重要性。
Abstract Using a broad range of materials (media and interviews), we analyse the development of three green megaprojects in the two northernmost regions of Sweden. We find support for the presence of a strong ideological fantasy tied to a few “green heroes”, supporting the notion that the investments are the ultimate answer not only to climate crisis but also to the territory’s perceived left-behindness. The symbolic construction of the fantasy also contributes to the production of killjoys through marginalizing and feminizing opposition to the megaprojects. Our analysis thereby points to the importance of a feminist intervention and critique of the neoliberal ideology that frames green megaprojects.
