标 题: Do Flush Toilets Have Politics?
发信站: BBS 未名空间站 (Fri Apr 3 15:51:05 2015, 美东)
According to the United Nations, by 2025, 1.9 billion people will be living
in countries or regions with absolute water scarcity, and two-thirds of the
world population could be under water stress conditions. In this talk,
Santos argues that one of the best ways to capture the making of
contemporary water shortage anxieties is to explore the global history of
the modern flush toilet and the hydraulic system of waste disposal
supporting its operation. Drawing on historical and ethnographic research on
the spread of the flush toilet in rural South China, this paper calls for
the need to consider alternatives to the remarkably wasteful system of human
waste management locked-in to our built environments.
——A seminar talk to be given by Gonçalo Santos, Assistant Professor,
Hong Kong Institute for the Humanities and Social Sciences, University of
Hong Kong, on Thursday, April 9, 2015 at 4:30pm to 6:00pm, in Room 217A,
Hall of Graduate Studies, 320 York Street, New Haven, CT 06511.
