Rethinking community: Conservation, practice, and emotion
چکیده انگلیسی
This paper focuses on the intersection of practice and emotion in collective environmental work. In recent years, “community” has become a central concept in conservation, reflecting the shift from top-down strategies to grassroots, participatory approaches. This community focus has generated abundant critique, especially in political ecology where scholars claim that normative notions of community clash with complex realities on the ground. I argue, however, that these critiques fail to fully grapple with the embodied materiality of togetherness and therefore remain too focused on preconceived social categories. Using the example of an international conservation fieldtrip from Chile to Costa Rica, I suggest that theories of practice and emotion can help remedy this problem in that they advance a performative understanding of being-in-common. I conclude by suggesting that such a formulation has implications for advancing collective environmental politics.
