  • Our World Is Burning
    OUR WORLD IS BURNING John Scales Avery September 27, 2020 INTRODUCTION1 Two time scales The central problem which the world faces in its attempts to avoid catas- trophic climate change is a contrast of time scales. In order to save human civilization and the biosphere from the most catastrophic effects of climate change we need to act immediately, Fossil fuels must be left in the ground. Forests must be saved from destruction by beef or palm oil production. These vitally necessary actions are opposed by powerful economic inter- ests, by powerful fossil fuel corporations desperate to monetize their under- ground “assets”, and by corrupt politicians receiving money the beef or palm oil industries. However, although some disastrous effects climate change are already visible, the worst of these calamities lie in the distant future. Therefore it is difficult to mobilize the political will for quick action. We need to act immediately, because of the danger of passing tipping points beyond which climate change will become irreversible despite human efforts to control it. Tipping points are associated with feedback loops, such as the albedo effect and the methane hydrate feedback loop. The albedo effect is important in connection with whether the sunlight falling on polar seas is reflected or absorbed. While ice remains, most of the sunlight is reflected, but as areas of sea surface become ice-free, more sunlight is absorbed, leading to rising temperatures and further melting of sea ice, and so on, in a loop. The methane hydrate feedback loop involves vast quantities of the power- ful greenhouse gas methane, CH4, frozen in a crystalline form surrounded by water molecules.

Appl. Sc. "THERE IS A PLACE WHERE THE DREAMS LIVE": PORTRAYALS OF THE SOUTH SEA IN GERMAN LANGUAGE TOURIST BROCHURES by Matthias Schellhorn The promotion of places for tourism involves the projection of selective sets of images. Destinations often shape their cultural realities to match successful marketing images. Tourism and its promotion, therefore, generate transformations of a physical and symbolic nature. Beyond their manipulative and stereotyping promotional role, tourist brochures are agents in the ongoing commodification of natural and cultural environments. Tourism-related commercialisation is often viewed as a degenerative process. An alternative perspective acknowledges the risks involved yet also focuses on opportunities .

  • The Sacred and Cultural Maritime Sites of Fiji-An Inventory in the Making
    The Sacred and Cultural Maritime Sites of Fiji-An Inventory in the Making Elia Nakoro Archaeology Department The Fiji Museum Thurston Gardens Suva, Fiji Email: [email protected] Abstract The Fiji Museum Archaeology Department, since 2015, has begun inventorying the different underwater and maritime sites in Fiji. Ratification of the 2001 UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage and review of the legislation on the Preservation of Objects of Archaeological and Palaeontological Interest Act (Chapter 264) has had little fruition due to limitations in manpower and resources. The Fiji Museum has however taken first steps towards realizing the amendment of the legislation by developing and drafting an overarching policy for the institution. The Fiji Museum continues to deliberate on the draft policy encompassing all aspects of its services, which includes underwater and maritime cultural heritage sites, to ensure that Fiji’s cultural heritage is protected. This paper will elaborate on the different types of underwater/maritime cultural heritage sites in Fiji and the inventory process of documenting and creating a database, including challenges and opportunities. It will highlight the importance of the database in assisting the Fiji Museum in its work to raise awareness and provide advice to Government and relevant authorities in the respect, preservation and protection of these submerged historical treasures. The paper will also highlight the various agencies with common goals to protect underwater cultural sites and discuss the importance of inter- agency collaboration. Key words: Cultural heritage, maritime, preservation, and protection Introduction The Fiji Islands The island nation of Fiji encompasses over 300 volcanic islands.

  • CRISIS CULTURE: the THEORY & POLITICS of HISTORICAL RUPTURE by David W
    CRISIS CULTURE: THE THEORY & POLITICS OF HISTORICAL RUPTURE by David W. Janzen A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English Department of English & Film Studies University of Alberta © David W. Janzen, 2017 ABSTRACT Everywhere, we are told, we are in crisis. And yet, the concept “crisis” obscures as much as it clarifies. Crisis Culture: The Theory & Politics of Historical Rupture examines how modern conceptions of crisis structure the ways we experience, narrate, and respond to moments of historical rupture and upheaval. It analyzes how logics of crisis and event limit and facilitate the emergence of new forms of social and political relations. In its modern conceptions, “crisis” names an event in historical time, while simultaneously constituting historical temporality; crises reconfigure time by defining a new relation between past and future. Both academic and vernacular discourses frame crisis in normative terms: to name a situation a crisis is to posit and affirm (explicitly or implicitly) a definition of a “normal” or non-crisis situation. As such, the logic of crisis tends to reproduce existing hierarchies—specifically, those determining who has the power to name the situation and prescribe solutions. Contemporary Marxist theories of crisis—including Wertkritik and Neue Marx-Lectüre resist normative understandings by locating crisis in the concrete, historical dynamics related to capitalist forms of value. In doing so, they account for the broader, transformative
