Haste: The Slow Politics of Climate Urgency Haarstad Hvard
A powerful argument for not approaching climate change in a hurry, but with a slow politics of urgency.It's understandable that we tend to present climate change as something urgently requiring action. But is that framing itself a problem? Every day we fail to act, the potential for catastrophe grows.
We overlook things. When we hurry, we make more mistakes. We get tunnel vision.In Haste, a group of distinguished contributors makes the case for a slow politics of urgency.
Rather than rushing and speeding up, he argues, the sustainable future is better served by our challenging of the dominant framings through which we understand time and change in society. While recognizing the need for certain types of urgency in climate politics, Haste directs attention to the different and alternative temporalities at play in climate and sustainability politics.
