BellingenNSWNature–society relations in disaster governance frameworks"This paper studies how the relations between nature and society are constructed in disaster governance frameworks. Dominant disaster governance frameworks present nature and society as separate realms, and the organisation of society is increasingly seen as the key cause of hazards and disasters. Disaster impacts are similarly framed around adverse societal consequences, while other-than-human nature is merely the background across which disasters unfold, as property lost, or a means of disaster governance. Although the centrality of human impacts is troubled when biodiversity or a disaster flagship species is threatened, neither situation challenges the nature–society dualism embedded in dominant disaster governance frameworks. The attention and resources of disaster governance target the societal side of nature–society dualism. This study finds, though, that in peripheries characterised by remoteness from centres of power, a sparse human population, and large spaces of other-than-human nature, the vulnerabilities facing humans and other-than-human nature risk being ungoverned." >> Meriläinen, E.

Vidya SubramanianIt really is this bad. Getting a <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/visa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#visa</a> for international travel to conferences, meetings, even friends' weddings is a real ordeal for many of us with less 'powerful' passports. We're missing out on important conversations in our fields because of this; but these events are poorer for our absence too. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/InternationalTravel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#InternationalTravel</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AcademicConference" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AcademicConference</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/Peripheries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Peripheries</a> <a href="https://www.science.org/content/article/visa-bureaucracy-makes-scientific-conferences-inaccessible-many-researchers" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.science.org/content/article/visa-bureaucracy-makes-scientific-conferences-inaccessible-many-researchers</a>
