Decolonising polycrisis: Southern perspectives on interlocking crises
本文批判性地重新审视‘多重危机’概念，从全球南方视角分析气候与债务危机如何交织，呼吁去殖民化政治经济与全球治理架构，为地理学者和批判学者提供研究议程。
This commentary argues that the concept of ‘polycrisis’ must be critically reoriented through a decolonial lens, particularly about the global South, where overlapping crises have long been the norm. While ‘polycrisis’ has become a buzzword among global economic and political elites, scholars have studied its relevance mainly for the global North. Using the climate and debt crises as two entry points, we delineate how these crises interlock in the global South, calling for the decolonisation of the political economy and global governance architectures. Deeper theoretical development of polycrisis is required, informed by experiences in the global South. We propose an agenda for geographers and critical scholars to (1) engage more rigorously with polycrisis as an analytical tool, and (2) gain a more nuanced understanding of crisis narratives and crisis complexity from global South experiences.
