Lecture by Adrian Ivakhiv<\/p>\n

Navigating Earth’s ‘Zone of Alienation’:
\nChernobyl, the Anthropocenic Sublime, and
\nImages of a Habitable Future<\/strong><\/p>\n

This talk will interpret the Chernobyl nuclear accident and its \u201cZone of Alienation\u201d (Zona vidchuzhennia) as a microcosm of the explosive tensions held together within the nucleus of the Anthropocene. Its first part will situate the 1986 nuclear accident within a series of nested geo-temporal reference frames, including Western and Soviet \u201ctechnological sublimes\u201d; Cold War militarism and the post-Soviet resurgence of Westphalian nationalism; cinematic and science-fictional \u201czones\u201d associated with zombies, \u201cstalkers,\u201d and posthuman futures; and the deep time of the Anthropocene (or Capitalocene, as others have called it). Its second part will deepen the analysis of the Anthropocene as a \u201ctime out of joint,\u201d marked by a geography in which \u201czones of alienation\u201d and of resistance — from Chernobyl and Fukushima to the floodzones of climate change, from sites of \u201cextreme (fossil fuel) extraction\u201d to the movement of \u201cBlockadia\u201d emerging against them — become key points of struggle over the future of the Earth. I argue that at the heart of this struggle is an effort to create \u201cadequate images\u201d (as Werner Herzog has called them) for our time.<\/p>\n

Adrian Ivakhiv<\/strong> is the Steven Rubenstein Professor for Environment and Natural Resources, and a Professor of Environmental Thought and Culture, at the University of Vermont. He has published widely in the fields of environmental humanities, cultural and religious studies, and film and media studies.
