  • Imagining Cascadia
    Imagining Cascadia: Bioregionalism as Environmental Culture in the Pacific Northwest Ingeborg Husbyn Aarsand A thesis presented to The Department of Literature, Area Studies, and European Languages North American Area Studies Faculty of Humanities Advisor: Mark Luccarelli In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the MA degree UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Fall 2013 Author: Ingeborg Husbyn Aarsand Title: Imagining Cascadia: Bioregionalism as Environmental Culture in the Pacific Northwest 2013 http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Abstract This thesis discusses the usefulness of the concept of bioregionalism as a social and cultural environmental practice, and as a response to the environmental crisis of our time. The thesis addresses an important issue in environmental discourse by considering whether bioregionalism’s place-based approach with its ethic of “reinhabitation” could challenge mainstream environmentalism. The thesis raises a critique of today’s professionalized and technocratic environmental movement. This thesis will argue that bioregional thinking evokes agrarianism and is indeed useful, because it can offer a “practical utopian” answer to the current environmental catastrophe. It is pragmatic, regionally specific, and reinforces the concept of place as central to the environmental discourse and debate. Ecological utopias have a role to play in environmental thinking because of their transformational power and pragmatic aspects. This thesis will show how the imagined bioregion of “Cascadia” is being constituted in different cultural representations of place, such as narratives about imagined places in music, film, and literature, and how this in turn is “placemaking.” This thesis argues that cultural representations of “place,” such as narratives about imagined recovery of places, can bring about both desperately needed inspiration for us humans to find local solutions to a global environmental crisis.
