Hydrographies : Ancestors, Waters, Infrastructures

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Remapping the world through water--what centering the key to life on our planet can do to transform our geopolitical thinkingWater flows through our lives as sustenance, border, danger and witness. Whereas geography--the writing of the earth--has long underpinned the frameworks of geopolitics, hydrography is here proposed as an alternative lens: a fluid cartography through which common desires, shared struggles and transnational solidarities can be reimagined. Thus, Hydrographies flows between water's political, ecological and cosmological dimensions, illustrated through contemporary visual art and moving image practices. These engage water as a contested site, revealing how rivers, oceans and aquifers are mobilized in struggles over land, sovereignty and survival. Across conversations, essays and artistic contributions, the book moves through colonial infrastructures, hydropolitical regime and submerged histories, while also engaging ancestral knowledge, ecological grief and collective imagination.
