  • Products, Competence and Meaning in the Practices of DIY
    Doing it yourself? Products, competence and meaning in the practices of DIY Matt Watson Durham University, [email protected] Elizabeth Shove Lancaster University, [email protected] Draft paper presented at ESA 2005 Torun, Poland. Please check with authors before quoting from or referencing this paper. Abstract DIY is an analytically complex phenomenon. It can simultaneously figure as leisure and work, and as consumption (of materials and tools) and production (of changes to the home). Analysis of the technology and practice of DIY allows us to engage with significant, but relatively unexplored themes that are nonetheless important for theorising consumption. This paper focuses on three such themes. First, consideration of motivations to undertake DIY projects highlights the extent to which consumption practices emerge from and are conditioned not only by cultural expectations, identity, aspirations and the market, but also by the material and practical contexts of everyday life. Secondly, exploration of the array of tools and materials brought together to realise DIY projects presents specific challenges for understanding how consumer goods come to count as useful. Thirdly, we explore the role of competence in accomplishing a DIY project, highlighting how competences are distributed between user and products, how developments in this area shape the realm of DIY consumption, bringing new projects within the reach of amateurs and making traditional tasks easier and faster. We conclude by reflecting on the significance of our DIY analysis for theories of ‘ordinary’ consumption. Introduction This paper emerges from preliminary analysis of data collected in the course of empirical work on ‘Do-It-Yourself’ (DIY) – the accomplishment of home maintenance and improvement by householders without professional help.

Barnard University of California, Berkeley, USA Abstract This article presents an ethnographic study of ‘freegans’, individuals who use behaviors like dumpster diving for discarded food and voluntary unemployment to protest against environmental degradation and capitalism. While freegans often present their ideology as a totalizing lifestyle which impacts all aspects of their lives, in practice, freegans emphasize what would seem to be the most repellant aspect of their movement: eating wasted food. New Social Movement (NSM) theory would suggest that behaviors like dumpster diving are intended to assert difference and an alternative identity, rather than make more traditional social movement claims.

  • Getting Their Hands Dirty: Raccoons, Freegans, and Urban “Trash” Lauren Corman1
    Journal for Critical Animal Studies, Volume IX, Issue 3, 2011 (ISSN1948-352X) Getting Their Hands Dirty: Raccoons, Freegans, and Urban “Trash” Lauren Corman1 Abstract Freegans and raccoons experience social and cultural vilification within North America. Rather than separate phenomena, there is a distinct interdependence of discourses relating to humanity and animality that inform popular constructions of these human and nonhuman urban foragers. Discourses related to pests, vermin, and dirt potently combine with others about social delinquency, race, and class. Adjacently, maintenance of urban civility and garbage containment is threatened by the physical and symbolic disruption of trash, refigured by freegans and raccoons as food; Western consumption patterns and their excesses are made visible by urban foraging. Such behaviors help inspire questions not only about conventional capitalist foodways but also the problematics of green consumerism. Keywords: Raccoons, freegans, consumption, urban foraging, animality, prejudice Introduction During the summer of 2005, a local radio show prompted me to investigate the meaning(s) of raccoons (Procyon lotor) within urban landscapes. During the call-in program, listeners were invited to share their thoughts about raccoons and the implementation of Toronto‘s municipal Green Bin waste management program. I was amazed by the callers‘ largely vitriolic responses. Positioned as pests, raccoons were understood as enemies worthy of elimination, a so-called ‗problem‘ in need of fixing. Yet, the problem was an old one: the Green Bin Program simply drew the tensions between humans and urban animals into sharper focus. The Green Bin Program began in 2002 within the Toronto municipality of Etobicoke. By September of 2004, central Toronto residents were introduced to the Program.

  • The Next Day Review
    ti< 1.1 (Spring 2012) 60 Porcellino, John, Peterson, Paul, and Jason Gilmore. The Next Day: A Graphic Novella . Toronto: Pop Sandbox, 2011. In 1990, after one year and twenty-one issues of drawing his self-published, predominately autobiographical, minicomic King Cat Comics , John Porcellino took it upon himself to defend his minimalist, rough-hewn drawing style, which had drawn the ire of some of his readers. The young, twenty-two-year-old cartoonist, in a seven-panel comic called Well Drawn Funnies , which eschews the normal conventions of cartooning in that it contains several text-only panels, defines the development of his style as follows: A big turning point [in his artistic career] came when I discovered that a crappy line, scratched on paper, was infinitely more ‘realistic’ than the most labored rendering…Anyhow, if the world is a piece of shit, art that denies that is in essence a lie. It is more important to me to make art that is an honest expression of life than it is to make pictures people think are well drawn. 1 Twenty-one years later, Porcellino has won multiple awards and accolades and his place as a do-it-yourself comics pioneer and masterful cartoonist is undeniable. The ragged nature of his drawing has tightened and refined over the past two decades, but the immediacy and potency of his line work and graphic storytelling ability has not been tempered. Porcellino captures the minutiae of everyday life with the sensitivity and insight of a poet. The desire of his young self to present an “honest expression of life” is as much an alternative comix and punk ethos, as it a tenant of the American Transcendentalists such as Henry David Thoreau.

  • The Environmental Impact of Sieben Linden Ecovillage
    The Environmental Impact of Sieben Linden Ecovillage Environmental impact assessment is widely taught and researched, but rarely covers both lifestyle and building construction in a town or neigh- bourhood. This book provides a broad assessment of the environmental impact of the ecovillage Sieben Linden in Germany. The ecovillage was founded in 1997 and has a population of over one hundred people. This book shows how raising the awareness of individuals and adopting a consistent way of community living can be environmentally friendly. This applies both to everyday practices and the way the houses in the ecovillage are built. The tools used to measure the impact are Ecological Footprint and Carbon Footprint methodologies, making use of indicators such as Primary Energy Intensity and Global Warming Potential. Despite the diffi culties encountered by using standardised methodologies, these research tools provide an overall assessment and have allowed comparisons with selected, similar cases and general values from statistic sources. This book will be of great use to professionals and scholars in the fi elds of environmental impact assessment, particularly at the town/district/city level, and of city and ecovillage management. It will particularly appeal to those engaged in a Sustainable Development Goal #11 perspective, as well as environmental policy makers at the local level. Andrea Bocco is Associate Professor of Architectural Technology at the Politecnico di Torino, Italy. His research interests cover the work and thoughts of unconventional contemporary architects, local development and construction with natural materials. Martina Gerace graduated in architecture at the Politecnico di Torino (Master’s in Architecture Construction City ), Italy, in 2017.

  • From Citizens to Consumers: the Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism
    From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism A thesis presented to the faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts Philip A. Wight August 2013 ©2013 Philip A. Wight. All Rights Reserved. 2 This thesis titled From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism by PHILIP A. WIGHT has been approved for the Department of History and the College of Arts and Sciences by Kevin Mattson Connor Study Professor of Contemporary History Robert Frank Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT WIGHT, PHILIP A., M.A. August 2013, History From Citizens to Consumers: The Countercultural Roots of Green Consumerism Director of thesis: Kevin Mattson When did American environmentalism shift from a focus on collective political action to an obsession with personal lifestyles? This thesis investigates three distinct bodies of environmental thought spanning the 1950s and the mid-1970s to answer this question. The three eco-political philosophies studied here are liberal, eco-socialist, and countercultural environmentalism. The heart of this thesis is the debate among key environmental thinkers—John Kenneth Galbraith, Stewart Brand, and Barry Commoner—concerning the role of individual consumers and the importance of public policy. This debate can be viewed as supply-side (producers) versus demand-side (consumers) environmentalism. This thesis argues America’s modern paradigm of libertarian, demand-side environmentalism and green consumerism stems from specific values, ideas, lifestyles, and worldviews representative of American counterculture of the 1960s and 1970s. In championing individual consumer choice, contemporary environmentalism has largely rejected liberal and eco-socialist prescriptions of collective political action and social democratic governance.
